Ashwini Nakshatra – A look through Medical
Astrology
S N Rao
In Eastern Astrology there is a vast field to
be explored in regard to Medical Astrology. Most of the writers on Eastern
Astrology have left this important topic.
Its my humble attempt with regard to this much
ignore field of Eastern Astrology and especially from the point of view of
Nakshatras in Eastern Astrology so much has to be explored.
This is my first article on Eastern Nakshatras
Astrology with regard to Medical Astrology. Hope it will stir some interest in
the minds of Astrologers all over the world and they will do some serious
research on this important topic.
Aswini and Diseases
Description In
Eastern Astrology Ancient Masters have divided the Zodiac in 27 parts which are
calle Nakshatras in Eastern Astrology. First nakshatra which is known as Aswini
extends from 0.00 degree to 13.20 degree and is named after the two Acvins
(horsemen) of the Hindu Mythology, corresponding to the “ Castor and Pollux” of
the Greeks; ‘Al-Sharateen’ (meaning the two tokens) of the Arab Manzil; ‘Leu’
of the Chinese Sieu. There are two stars in the Aswini group to indicate two
Aswinis according to ‘Cakalya and Khanda-Kataka’; according to Colebrooke and
later authorities, Aswini group consists of 3 stars and resemble to a horse’s
face; whereas according to balakrishna Ashwini Nakshatra is defined in
Bharateeya Jyotishya as group of three stars.
The month of Ashwija (usually October in the
Gregorian System) is named after Ashwini and at the full moon of Ashwija Moon
is near Ashwini Nakshatra.
Balakrishna1 writes if a single star has to be
identified as representing Ashwini Nakshatra, Best candidate is 13 a Aries /
SAO-75151/HD-12929/Hamal.
We should not forget here Richard Hinckley
Allen2 who wrote an excellent book on Star Names — Their Lore and
Meaning, Allen calls whole of constellation Equuleus (Ref-1,Page213) as
Ashwini, perhaps as a literal translation of Ashwini as horse.
Males Health: His
health is normally v good. However if the birth is in between 2 degree and 3
degree of Aswini, his health will be poor. He may have migraine headache, and
in some cases heart trouble may hit the native as per the sayings of ancient
authorities.
Female’s health: Her
health is generally good. Main cause of her ailments is unnecessary mental
worry and anxiety. In some cases, when such worries are too much then some mild
type of brain disorder may take place in the long run. She should be
particularly be careful while cooking or in any other situation where fire is
used. In the era of this modern society it has been observed by some
astrologers that vehicle accidents also hit the native. Frequent convulsions,
insomnia and menstrual difficulties have been noticed by noticed by
astrological researchers. Especially if Venus is placed in 4th part
(10.00 degree to 13.20 degree) of Aswini and Moon aspects, there will be
frequent menstrual problems.
Planetary positions

Sun
If Sun is in Aswini Nakshatra and aspected by
Mars the native will have red eyes.
Sun in First quarter
of Aswini and Aries Navamsa of Aries Sign from 0.00 degree to 3.20 degrees. He
will have bile and blood connected diseases.
Sun in Second
quarter of Aswini and Taurus Navamsa of Aries Sign from 3.20 degree to 6.40
degrees. This native has balarishtha Yoga and it has been observed
by Astrologers that in many cases native dies before the 8 years of age. If
Moon conjoins Sun here then the bad effects are enhanced.
Sun in Third quarter
of Aswini and Gemini Navamsa of Aries Sign from 6.40 degree to 10.00 degrees. Health
is normally poor.
Moon
If Moon is in Aswini Nakshatra and Saturn
Aspects it then health will be poor according to ancient authorities.

quarter of Aswini and Aries Navamsa of Aries Sign from 0.00 degree to 3.20
degrees. Native is afflicted with bilious diseases.
Moon in Third
quarter of Aswini and Gemini Navamsa of Aries Sign from 6.40 degree to 10.00
degrees. If Mars aspect Moon in this position, Teeth or Eyes will
be effected.
Mars
Mars in Second
quarter of Aswini and Taurus Navamsa of Aries Sign from 3.20 degree to 6.40
degrees. It has been written by ancient authorities that Mars in
this position gives childlessness and some modern Astrologers have seen some
charts having this combination giving childlessness in few cases which need to
be further worked on. One more thing which has been observed and written in
ancient books is that Son possibility is v remote. However in some cases only
females children’s are born is observed…
Mars in Fourth
quarter of Aswini and Gemini Navamsa of Aries Sign from 10.00 degree to 13.20
degrees. Afflicted by watery diseases. But what are those diseases
is not defined but we have to observe it in the research.
Mercury
Mercury in Third
quarter of Aswini and Gemini Navamsa of Aries Sign from 6.40 degree to 10.00
degrees. He has some health problems in spite of this that he has a
good and wealthy life.
Jupiter
For Jupiter no disease is mentioned but we
should keep it under observation for further studies..
Venus
Venus in First
quarter of Aswini and Aries Navamsa of Aries Sign from 0.00 degree to 3.20
degrees. He has a stout body. Short span of life has also been
indicated for this position. (This is an imp point for newly born babies should
be observed in practical cases.)
Venus in Third
quarter of Aswini and Gemini Navamsa of Aries Sign from 6.40 degree to 10.00
degrees. For venus in this navamsa it is indicated that the native
may be lame or loose his limb or lose his limb. ( I think this position should
be noted in the persons working in factories or metals works especially.)
