Guest guest Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Vaidyas used to make their own medicines in past and the Vedas contain several verses and mantras which help the Vaidyas in collecting herbs according to astrological calendar. This maximises medicinal powers of herbs, the powers being driven by cosmic energies collected by them. The connection between Astrology and Aayurveda was strong, whereby most practitioners knew both these parts of Vedas well and used together. Timewise, Astrology existsed before ayurveda and attracted scholars from all parts of globe. The birth of ayurveda may be traced in astrology, as it defines trees to be worshipped by people according to natal moon star. While Sun is considered the planet governing medicine science, Vaidyas who make medicines, they worship Mars, the planetary lord governing success in alchemic arts. Connection of Mars to Ashwinikumars also exists. To please Mars, worship Lord Ganesha, assumed to be resident in Muladhar Chakra. That is why Lord Ganesha is offered Red flowers, and naturally made Ganesha idols are colored red. Mars also affects our biological - harmonal rhythmic cycles, heart rhythm and adrenals mainly. Total span of menstrual cycle life is longer or shorter depending on the strength of Mars in natal chart. Weaker Mars is a pointer to disorders like PCOS, ED etc. In case the menses of middle aged ladies are delayed presently, do not worry as Mars is retrograde in sky. Purpose of this post in to inform that this red planet is coming in close encounter with earth and a beautiful panoramic event is unfolding in sky, in the zodiac sign Gemini, which spawns many Vaidyas, astrologers and those with a bent towards occult/mysticism/spiritualism etc. Take a view of this planet due to astronomical advantage by clicking on the link: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/21nov_marsdoubles.htm If you stay tuned to above website, you may see beautiful pictures from a close distance in near future.
