 Introduction
Vedic Astrology is an ancient science which is both universal and timeless. This vast body of knowledge encompasses all earthly phenomena past, present and future. Vedic Astrology is based on the laws of nature which express the unity within the diversity of life, and support the idea of an underlying intelligence governing all things with great precision and compassion. Vedic Astrology seeks to impart to mankind a tool with which to understand and live in greater harmony with nature, to maximize opportunities for growth and minimize suffering.
Vedic Astrology is the study of the subtle energies emanating from the sky upon people, plants, animals and the Earth itself. These energies influence the human body and mind on all levels. The astrological chart has the capacity to indicate good or ill health, strong or weak vitality, proneness to disease or accident, emotional stability or instability, intellectual soundness or mental insanity. One should not underestimate the role of the planets in causing or indicating disease and suffering in life as well as indicating happiness and well-being.
The ancient seers of India understood the close relationship between the laws of nature and mankind, and as a result of this natural connection developed a system of health called Ayurveda, the medicine of life itself. Although Western thinking has come to embrace these profound and essential truths to some degree with the discovery of Quantum Physics, this understanding of the nature of existence has been the basis of Vedic Knowledge for thousands of years.
The Vedas are , in contemporary terms, “holistic’ in their approach to all knowledge. Human ailments can be linked to the outcome of the gravitational pulls exerted by the planets through rotation and revolution, which is why AStrology has such a close relationship with Ayurveda. AStrology is used as a diagnostic tool for Ayuvedic practitioners in the treatment of disease - it provides the understanding of a person’s karma which can help the healer optimize their efforts. Furthermore, the dashas system of Vedic AStrology - its unique set of planetary periods - is particularly important for the timing of both disease and treatment, indicating the patients’s likelihood of full and lasting recovery or further disease.
Astrology indicates and Ayurveda analyses the bodily patterns which consist of three heath tendencies called doshas or biological humors. These are Vata, Pitta and Kapha, which equate to wind, bile and phlegm as bodily substances. Vata means motion, Pitta is connected with heat and light, and Kapha indicates inactivity and conservation. The great Ayurvedic teacher Sushruta says that “just as the Sun, the Moon and Wind are necessary for the regular functioning of the world outwardly, so are VAta, Pitta and Kapha necessary for the regulation of health in the human body.” When the planets are in disharmony in the sky, the balance of the human body between Vata, Pitta and Kapha becomes disturbed, thus creating ill health.
Vedic astrology is famous for its remedial measures of gems, mantras and yagnjas (rituals). It shows us how to bring the benefit energies of the cosmos into our human lives in order to create powerful forces of change and transformation. These methods can help reduce our negative karmas and provide us with the spiritual attitude to deal with those difficulties that we cannot change. Such remedial measures can also help with health concerns and the treatment of disease when applied with regard to Ayurveda. Ayurveda teaches the proper lifestyle, diet, herbs, exercise and behavioral patterns to implement the wisdom that astrology teaches us and to complement these astrological remedial measure.
Western medicine has developed a system which treats one part of the body without regard for the body as a whole. This approach to healing has become infamous for treating the symptom rather then dealing with the underlying and primary causes. More importantly, in the process, it has often resulted in creating greater problems than it has attempted to solve, creating side-effects often more dangerous than the disease. Different from this. Ayurveda is a holistic form of treatment which is meant to harmonize the body, mind and spirit. As long as our culture ignores astrological influences and tries to treat disease without their consideration, it will miss much information which can help alleviate many unnecessary and avoidable difficulties.
Practical Application
Ayurveda has considered about the diet in detail. The Ayurvedic diet is one that not only nourishes the body, but also restores balance of 'Tridoshas' wich is very much essential for maintaining Health. Depending on our dosha, or constitutional type, some foods can be beneficial, and others should be avoided. These same foods may have the opposite effect on another dosha. The science of Ayurveda teaches that right diet is the foundation of healing. For maximum health and vitality, the ideal diet is one that balances our doshas.
