Guest guest Report post Posted March 9, 2010 Dear Sivaprakasam, > I dont know what made you to think of Nanda Lala here. > I've been working extensively with Sri Krishna's horoscope for the past four months - so when I saw " Krishnas horoscope " and a mention of Saturn aspecting the ascendant, y " muscle memory " in the brain I figured you were talking about B.V. Raman's proposed horoscope of Krishna. Sorry! But it WOULD make sense. Nandalal had the most goregous appearance and most wonderful locks of curly black hair without any defect in his fragrant scalp.

The authoritative horoscope of Sri Krishna can be known from Soor Das. Previous to this it can be known from the Sarartha-Darshini Tikka on Bhagavat Purana by Srila Vishvanatha Chakravarti Thakur.

Saturn receives the aspect of Mars, a pitta humor from him also. Mars naturally possess the same humor and passes it on to Asc and Ascendant ruler. One may argue Sun protects the lagna being placed there. Sun and Saturn are deployed mutually neutral etc....

Mercury disposits Rahu, a malefic, in the second house and sits with Sun. Mercury and Ketu exchanged their constellation and Ketu in 8th House.

If one argues that the presence of Venus a natural benefic with Asc ruler neutralizing the situation does not have much merit since Venus is the 3rd and 10th lord and ruling 10th house, Venus sheds its benefic nature.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 10, 2010 Dear Krishna, If I'm not mistaken fungus and/or yeast infection is a type of parasite. I'm afraid it's been rather a busy day here today and I'm a little tired at the moment...so I stand corrected if in error here. Yes, Rahu can play a part in fungus infections, ringworm and so forth. If this query is in relation to dandruff, I should say that this is usually little more than an acceleration of the normal shedding of dead skin cells which occur quite normally in everyone. It becomes a problem for some when the dead cells (flaking) becomes excessive giving rise to what is termed as dandruff. Of course this can be a symptom of some underlying skin condition, but I think it would be a huge stretch to assume that all instances of dandruff are due to a fungal infection of some sort.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 10, 2010 Dear Mrs. Wendy, Thanks for giving your views. // but I think it would be a huge stretch to assume that all instances of dandruff are due to a fungal infection of some sort.// You are somewhat correct. Let me share my understanding on the subject. Every time white flakes appear on the scalp it is not caused due to fungus. Only when it is caused due to fungus it is termed as Dandruff. However, there are other cases when excessive dead skin appears on the scalp which looks similar to dandruff caused by the fungus. This could be due to a condition called 'Scalp Psoraisis'. Actually, Psoraisis can occur on any part of the body. It is understood that this condition occurs from the fact that skin in certain areas of the body grows at much faster pace than normal (even 10 times faster!). This excessive skin comes out in the form of flakes. Actually, my daughter used to get lot of white flakes on her scalp. And she also started losing hair. Our initial thought was this is dandruff. She used many anti-dandruff shampoos and there was no improvement in the condition. Then she started taking some homeopathic medicine after consulting a doctor. Even after two years, there was no improvement in the condition. Then, I took her to a different dermatologist. He inspected her scalp and in less than a minute he told us that this is not dandruff and in fact this is called psoraisis of the scalp. He informed that this is not curable and could last for 8-10 years once starts. However, he said that the condition can be managed with medicine to slow down the rate of skin growth. He explained that the flakes due to dandruff are much finer and the flakes due to psoraisis are larger in size. He prescribed some ointment to be applied to her scalp twice a week in the night and wash the scalp in the morning. Within a month her flaking reduced considerably and itching came down. Within another month or two her hair fall came down drastically. She is continuing with same medication and is quite happy about it.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 10, 2010 Dear Vic, Of course you are correct. To go further deep, we have technically four tamasik grahas - Mars, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. I feel we should exclude Mars and Ketu as they are considered to represent heat, fire, explosion etc. That leaves only Saturn and Rahu in the reckoning.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Dear Krishna, Vic and All, Quite obviously I haven't read the article linking common dandruff to fungal infection. However, based on my limited knowledge, I still maintain that common dandruff, which almost anyone can suffer from at some time in their life is rarely related to a parasitic fungi infection, which BTW can infect, animals, birds and insects as well as humans...fish also, I believe. These infections can vary from mild itching to death, depending on the type of fungi and the severity. Dry flaky skin, whether it be on the scalp (common dandruff) or anywhere else on the body...extremities being the most common, is a sure indication of excess Vata. Most Ayurvedic outlets carry Vata specific Massage oils which are very effective in treating this condition. If my memory serves me, pure Sesame oil is a good choice...but I have to add my memory is no longer as sharp as it was so it would be good to check on this. When I was a young girl I followed my grandmother's lead and rubbed pure (medicinal) olive oil into my scalp once a week, leaving it on overnight with a nightcap covering my head and washing it out the next day with pure soap. It was a traditional practice amongst people of my grandmother's generation. I also remember having to wear a camphor bag pinned to the inside of my singlet during the winter months to ward off the common cold. Sadly many of these old (and wise) remedies have been forgotten. It's amazing though, just how many of them I became reacquainted with when I took the (basic) Maharishi Ayurvedic course.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Dear Group, A few other remedies are as follows, 1.Soak Fenugreek seeds in water and keep it overnight , take out the water - grind them in the morning with lime juice and apply the paste for an hour before you have a head bath. ( Fenugreek is available in Indian stores as it is used in the kitchen) 2. Applying Aloe vera and leaving it for a while is also helpful 3.Neelabringadi Tailam - that is available in auyervedic stores (i know of Arya vaidya shala's) is also very helpful Best Regards Nilesh jyotish-vidya , " Mrs.Wendy " <jyotishvidya wrote: > > Dear Krishna, Vic and All, > > Quite obviously I haven't read the article linking common dandruff to fungal > infection.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Dear Mrs. Wendy, //Quite obviously I haven't read the article linking common dandruff to fungal infection.// Some more info. on the subject from a UK based web site: *Common beliefs about dandruff – true or false?* *Dandruff is due to dryness of the skin **False. Dandruff is caused by a rapid turnover of cells, so more dead cells are shed from the surface. In fact, dandruff occurs in areas where the grease glands of the skin are most active, and the skin is not usually dry.* * * *Dandruff is more common in males than in females **True. Probably because the grease glands are affected by hormones.* * * *Dandruff is affected by the weather **Probably true. Sunlight inhibits the growth of the **Malassezia** yeast.* * * *Dandruff results from poor hygiene **False. Dandruff is caused by rapid turnover of skin cells, probably as a reaction to the **Malassezia** yeast. However, dandruff sufferers do not have more of the yeast than other people – they are just more sensitive to it.* * * *Dandruff is contagious **False. You can not ‘catch’ dandruff from someone else, such as by using his/her brush or comb.* * * *Wearing a hat worsens dandruff **Possibly true. **Pityrosporum** ovale yeasts thrive best when protected from sunlight. Also, wearing a hat prevents sweat from evaporating, and this may encourage the yeast.* Regards, Krishna On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 3:06 PM, Mrs.Wendy <jyotishvidya wrote: > > > Dear Krishna, Vic and All, > > Quite obviously I haven't read the article linking common dandruff to > fungal > infection.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Dear Mrs Wendy,Mr Vic,Mr Nil and Members. 1.Astrological base arising out of sun and other planets was discussed at length.It was very interesting.Important however is to prevent it.Tropical regions however promote dandruff due to the weather conditions and in other regions comparitively the rate of occurence is not found to be high. 2.Practically I have seen that mixing few drops of lemon juice and fresh cocconut oil if applied and kept ofr an followed by wash helps: no dandruf shiny hair and also dense This if done once a week is enough i.besides this helps in removing tension headache. ii.First and foremost do not hair brushes and avoid drying with electric dryers.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Dear Krishna, As is often the case, opinions vary from one health professional to another. The following article seems to support (at least) some of my own conclusions. http://www.nationalpharmacies.com.au/library/Dandruff.pdf The point made (in the above article) that dandruff tends to be seasonal, usually most severe during winter, is relevant to what I said regarding Vata. As we know, winter is when Vata is most prominent. More information regarding the seasons during which each dosha is most strongly expressed can be found here. http://jyotishvidya.com/prikriti.htm This information has been available on JV website for some years now.

Dandruff is caused by a rapid turnover of cells, so more dead cells are shed from the surface. In fact, dandruff occurs in areas where the grease glands of the skin are most active, and the skin is not usually dry.* * * *Dandruff is more common in males than in females **True. Probably because the grease glands are affected by hormones.* * * *Dandruff is affected by the weather **Probably true. Sunlight inhibits the growth of the **Malassezia** yeast.* * * *Dandruff results from poor hygiene **False. Dandruff is caused by rapid turnover of skin cells, probably as a reaction to the **Malassezia** yeast. However, dandruff sufferers do not have more of the yeast than other people - they are just more sensitive to it.* * * *Dandruff is contagious **False. You can not 'catch' dandruff from someone else, such as by using his/her brush or comb.* * * *Wearing a hat worsens dandruff **Possibly true. **Pityrosporum** ovale yeasts thrive best when protected from sunlight. Also, wearing a hat prevents sweat from evaporating, and this may encourage the yeast.* Regards, Krishna On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 3:06 PM, Mrs.Wendy <jyotishvidya wrote: > > > Dear Krishna, Vic and All, > > Quite obviously I haven't read the article linking common dandruff to > fungal > infection.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Dear Mrs. Wendy, The site you have indicated also says the same things that I have been highlighting. This site also talks about fungus as the cause. Also, it is quite logical to conclude that vata aggravates the problem as it appears to be severe during winters and mild during Summers. Every site about dandruff says the same about seasons. Hence, I don't see any contradicting views here.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Dear Mrs WEndy and Members, Thanx to Mrs WEndy for the timely google search and link for the benifit of members.No wonder for problems like dandruff,ayurveda/herbal treatment was in vogue for over decades.It's astrological base now ventured in this direction is very interesting and educative too. Ayurveda,initially infers after studying about the body constitution every individual.They check the pulse otherwise nadi.THis nadi too has reference in jyotish.identification or likeliness of certain ailments through jyotish and cure through ayurveda treatment is gaining lot of importance. Several diseases as well chronic illness can be tackled through Ayurveda.IN today's world study of medicine has as well as usage of technology helped allopathy to grow in leaps and bounds.Due to the inherent disadvantage of reactions,allergies and patient becoming addicted to some medicines,other forms of treatment too are being adopted.There is no doubt today ayurveda has sevral drugs that can cure most incurable diseases.Advantage however in ayurveda is it has no side effects.. Like Brihat Samhita for Astrology there is Charak Samhita for ayurveda.People too are turning to ayurveda treatment for many chronic diseases. THis identification of basic humors makes jyotish and Ayurveda an intimate fields of study. Incidentally,both fenu greek seeds as well as Aloevera have found to be lot of medicinal values.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Hi All, I was going through this discussion on dandruff for some time. As i remember somebody was asking, i'm providing my chart details for anyone interested to add this to their library to investigate dandruff w.r.t astrology.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Deare Vic, Yes, you have a point. I should not use the umbrella term pitta here as it can include Mars etc. I should stick to Sun only. Though it is a pitta planet it seem to have some role in controlling dandruff. It may not be its pitta property but something else that I am unable to pin point at this time. Will get back to you later. Regards, Krishna On Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 5:52 AM, Vic DiCara <vicdicara wrote: > > > Dear Krishna. This is not ayurvedically sound nor sound by modern > medicine.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Hello Jyothi Ji, In Astrology there exist some link between Ayurveda and AStrology.Mostly dandruff a fungal problem,the cure is not immediate.In your case as it is not continuous environment has some influence. Better not be too concerned about it.Mind your food and take good fruits.Since you r in a coastal place with lot of humidity,use only ayurveda based shampoos and oils.Find how how Arnical hair oil suits you.It is heopathy based one.

Dasa lord Saturn, in nakshatra of lagnakaraka Sun, occupies Sun's sign Leo. As we know, Sun, along with lagna signifies head. Consider the placement of Sun, conjunct Rahu, in 6th house of disease.

As i remember somebody was asking, i'm providing my chart details for anyone interested to add this to their library to investigate dandruff w.r.t astrology. I have dandruff for around 10-15 years though not continuosly. It goes off and comes again. I even have lot of it now. I tried most of remedies like anti-dandruff shampoos, ayurvedic shampoos, home remedies..i also cut my hair to check if its because of the long oily hair! but i couldn't get permanent solution. > > > > DOB:21-july- 1980,08:06 PM,Kakinada India > > > > Thanks, > > Jyothi. > > > > jyotish-vidya, Vic DiCara <vicdicara@ ..> wrote: > > > > > > Dear Krishna.
