Headache? Blame It On Planets!

Headache
Are you suffering from any of these symptoms - Nausea, Loss of appetite, Feeling of uneasiness, etc? Chances are that, you are experiencing symptoms of a headache!

Headache is defined as mild, moderate or severe pain in the head, above the eyes or the ears, behind the head or in the neck.

A Warning!
If you have sudden, severe headaches after a blow to your head, or along with a stiff neck, fever, loss of consciousness or pain in the eye or ear, etc., it may be a more serious disorder and may require immediate medical help.

Astrology Can Help You!
An expert horoscope analysis can reveal one"s health status and diseases one is prone to suffer. In olden days, Hippocrates, a famous physician, used to first study a person"s natal chart and then proceed with his treatments!

A person gets infected by diseases depending upon which Bhava or Rashi are aspected or associated with malefic planets in his birth chart. This is because each of the Zodiac sign is associated with one or many body parts. Also each planet has a predominant airy, fiery, watery, or humid nature. Ayurveda explains this as Vata-Pitta and Kapha. Thus, the person gets the disease of the body part denoted by the Zodiac House in combination with the planet of dominance.

Aries governs the head, the brain and the eyes, specifically the front of the head, down to the eyes and the back of the head to the base of the skull. It reflects the Mars, the fiery energy in the head. A person with sun, moon, ascendant or many planets in the Aries is said to be prone for more headaches than other people because of this reason.

If Sun is disturbed in 1st, 2nd or 12th houses, or Mars is very weak or combusted along with bad Moon, then these people are highly prone to suffer from migraine headaches. Also, if an afflicted Sun or Mars is placed in the 6th House (the indicator of diseases in one"s birth chart) the person falls prey to headache.

Weakness of the Ascendant and/or afflictions to the Ascendant Lord might result in a sickly constitution, causing vulnerability to headache. A strong Sun and Mars, as significators for vitality and energy respectively, help as a protective cover.

Vedic Prescriptions
One of the simple but effective remedies is Surya Namaskaar or chanting Gayathri mantra or Om Adithyaya namah or Om Suryaya namah 3, 11, 21, 51 or 108 times in the morning, while looking at the Sun for at least 42 days.
Also, performing Dhanwantri Homa and Mars Homa can effectively negate the malefic planetary influences; thus ensuring that headache is always miles away from you.
