In the health reading, I work one-on-one with you, treating you holistically and individually by combining Ayurveda and Medical Astrology. I apply dietary and lifestyle interventions, Sādhanā (spiritual practice) recommendations for body-work therapies and herbal medicine to bring about positive change. This consultation focuses on preventive healthcare as well as health promotion on
diet and lifestyle through traditional Ayurvedic medical science principles and practices.
THE SESSION
Astrology is the original science of knowledge devised by human beings. Foundations of medical practice demonstrate that medicine developed from astrology. Ancient systems of medicine like Ayurveda आयुर्वेढ (the science of life) medicine considers the astrological influences.
Book A HEALTH READING now ($440 AUD)We start with your Prakruti. Prakruti - meaning "initial creation” I determine this from your natal chart. The prakriti represents the combination of the tridoshas (energetic constitution) you were born with before deviations took place. The three doshas are, Vata (air & ether), Pitta (fire & water) and Kapha (water & earth). You are constituted with these three doshas, each of us inherits them in differing proportions. Your prakriti remains unchanged during your lifetime and is genetically determined.
Next, we look at your Vikru – which means “to alter”. Your vikruti is an altered condition of the body, mind, and consciousness, which is an imbalance of the doshas. We compare this to your Prakruti, as this is your natural state of equilibrium for you. To find out the vikru we will work through a series of questions of your life history and present in relation to your health, body, and mind.
I overlay this information with reading planet placements in your natal chart. Your natal chart from a medical astrology perspective, can bring your attention to any vulnerabilities so we can work on strengthening these areas. This will include looking at your ascendant sign, your 6th (house of health) and 12th house (house of healing), your Saturn placement and your dasha period (planetary periods).
Book a health readingIn medical astrology, your natal chart shows vulnerability to certain types of disease or health problems. Hippocrates, the Greek physician regarded as the father of medicine, believed that a patient's astrological sign gave clues to what they're at risk for and can therefore be used as an early medical history for genetic screening. He and his school believed that the signs corresponded to different areas of the body that would be in greater danger of disease and trauma in the patient.
Hippocrates was a huge believer in astrology science and its powerful effects on the human mind and body. He and his protege often based medical theories on astrological movements and would even take the patient’s zodiac sign before they would begin any medical treatment. Hippocrates even taught astrology to his medical students.
