Guest guest Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Dear Friends , I have been reading various books on astrology and it seems to me that many of these emphasize the weaknesses of an ascendant to be coming from the ascendant sign itself . For example an Aries is cautioned against injury to head , a Taurean is said to have problems with throat infections etc . Why this should be so when generally sixth house is regarded as house of diseases ? Is ascendant the position of strength or weakness ? Your comments are welcome . Thanks in advance.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Dear AK Ghurye, If I am not mistaken, you are one of the writers on articles on either KP Magazine or Starteller. Then I fail to understand why you ask this simple question, the answer of which, you must be knowing already. Anyways- The Ascendant represents the person himself -the physical body.The ascendant represents the sensitive areas if the same is weak,from birth itself, translated in the physical body. The 6th house represents the probable areas of disturbance, in future course of the Life,which can be amended to a certain extent, by caution, or made worse by indulgence. Rahu in Aries would naturally give a person with a scar in the forehead,while his 6th- the stomache would be the sensitive area, either the native spoil it by eating roadside junk, or keep it in control by eating home made food etc.etc. Bhaskar. jyotish-vidya , Anand <anand.ghurye wrote: > > Dear Friends , > > I have been reading various books on astrology and it seems to me that many > of these emphasize the weaknesses of an ascendant to be coming from the > ascendant sign itself .

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Dear Anand, Bhaskar and All, As Bhaskar has pointed out... ///The Ascendant represents the person himself -the physical body.The ascendant represents the sensitive areas if the same is weak,from birth itself, translated in the physical body. The 6th house represents the probable areas of disturbance, in future course of the Life/// Lagna governs the physical body and one's basic constitution (prikriti) whilst 6th relates to diseases (ill-health) in general which can come and go throughout the course of one's life...often as a result of poor digestion, poor diet, unhealthy appetite, poor hygeine and so forth (natural significations of 6th) which can make one overly susceptible to common viruses and infections. 8th house, of course, indicates diseases that are long-lasting (chronic) and/or requiring surgical intervention etc.. As we know, the part of the body represented by the sign/bhava can be afflicted if it's occupied by a malefic...this applies to transits as well, so problems can be intermittent. According to the sages, Aries governs head, brain, forehead, whilst Taurus governs face, neck (throat etc). It stands to reason therefore that, if Lagna is afflicted, the part governed by that particular Rasi will reflect this. Capricorns for instance, are often prone to problems with the knees...and so forth.
