Medical Astrology- Peenasaroga and Pittaroga Yoga

Peenasaroga is a disease of the nose. The nasal canal rots and is filled with foetid matter and sometimes discharges blood which is mixed with pus from the nose. A person suffering from this disease experiences headaches, disgust for food, watery discharge, weakness of the voice and repeated discharges of mucous secretion.

What is Peenasaroga Yoga?

Peenasaroga Yoga is caused by the combination of the Moon, Saturn with a malefic planet. As per this yoga, the Moon, Saturn and a malefic planet should be in the 6th, 8th and 12th house respectively and the Ascendant lord should join malefic Navamsa.

Result of the Peenasaroga Yoga

The Peenasaroga Yoga if present in the natives chart will usually lead to inflammation of Schneiderian Membrane. This leads to discharge of blood mixed with pus.

Reason of Peenasaroga Yoga

Mercury is the planet associated with the nose and therefore any afflictions with it may lead to people suffering from nasal complaints. Practically, it has been found that in addition to horoscope, the Moon in the 6th and the Ascendant lord in the malefic Navamsa also causes Peenasaroga.

Pittaroga Yoga

According to Ayurveda, the entire psychological activities are controlled and brought about by three important forces or tridoshas. Tridoshas are Vatha ( Wind) , Pitta ( bile) and cough (Phlegm). Pittaroga yoga involves the Sun in malefic aspect and malefic conjunction.  This Yoga is related to the disease due to bilious complaints.

What is Pittaroga yoga?

The house of disease i.e. sixth house when occupied by the Sun in conjunction with a malefic planet and also aspected by a malefic planet results in this yoga.

Results of the Pittaroga Yoga

We already know that the imbalance of tridoshas can lead to disease in the natives. In this yoga, the native will suffers from bilious complaints. This can result in liver disorder, Jaundice, sleep disorders and increase of hunger.

Reason of Peenasaroga Yoga

The imbalance of  tridoshas i.e. Vatha (wind) , Pitta (bile), Sleshma (phlegm) is the major cause of disease in the human body. Pitta is said to be responsible for metabolic activities. Attributes of  Pitta (bile) are burning, warmth, suppuration, gangrenous ulceration, secretion and redness of complexion.

As the Sun governs mostly Pitta (bile) and a little of vatha (wind), hence when the Sun is afflicted by a malefic planet, particularly in the 6th house, it leads to this pittaroga yoga. The Sun in normal condition is considered to be good in the 6th house. The problem arises when the Sun is doubly affected by the conjunction of a malefic planet and aspected by another malefic planet.
