Can Astrology Predict Fatal Diseases Like Cancer or AIDS?
A Medical Astrology Case Study by Astrologer Siddhartha Goell
Medical astrology is an ancient and specialized branch of astrology. It deals with the likelihood of diseases, infections, accidents, injuries, and threats to life as reflected in a person’s horoscope. Unlike modern diagnostics, astrology does not replace medical science. However, it can act as an early warning system. This helps individuals become cautious and make informed life choices.
This case study by Relationship Counselor & Astrologer Siddhartha Goell explains the role of certain planetary combinations. House afflictions may also indicate a high risk of fatal diseases. These include Cancer, AIDS, or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
Important Note: Astrology indicates tendencies and probabilities, not inevitability. Awareness can always reduce risk.

Case Study: Horoscope of a Woman Who Died of AIDS
To illustrate these principles, a sample horoscope of a woman who eventually died of AIDS has been analyzed. The chart strongly fulfills the above parameters.
Rashi Chart Indicators of Disease
Sun and Rahu, both malefic planets, are placed in the Ascendant, severely afflicting the body.
Ascendant lord Venus is conjunct malefic Saturn. Together, they aspect the 8th house of chronic and life-threatening diseases.
Venus is caught in Paap Kartari Yoga, hemmed between malefics Saturn, Sun, and Mars, drastically weakening immunity.
8th and 11th lord Jupiter, placed in an enemy sign, aspects the Ascendant—linking disease and acceleration.
7th and 12th lord Mars aspects the 6th house of disease.
Mars’ depositor Moon is again afflicted by Saturn.
Venus signifies sex; Moon and Mars signify blood.
The 7th house (private organs) falls in Scorpio.
Ketu, placed here, is afflicted by Rahu and Sun.
This combination clearly shows disease entering through sexual intercourse and infecting the blood.
The 11th house and its lord (6th from the 6th) indicate multiplication of disease.
Jupiter amplified the infection during Rahu Mahadasha.
Rahu is known to signify viral and incurable infections.
Navamsha (D-9) Chart Confirmation
8th lord Jupiter is placed in the Ascendant.
6th lord Saturn from the 11th house aspects Jupiter.
Ascendant lord Sun is placed in the 12th house of hospitalization.
Sun’s depositor Moon, along with 11th lord Mercury, is conjunct Rahu in the 2nd house.
From there, they are in mutual aspect with Mars and Ketu in the 8th house.
The interconnection of the 6th, 8th, 11th, and 12th houses, along with strong Rahu influence, fully confirms the disease pattern.
Dasha Timeline of the Disease
Rahu Mahadasha: Infection (AIDS) occurred
Jupiter Antardasha: Disease diagnosed at an advanced stage
Saturn Antardasha: Treatments failed
Mercury Antardasha: Death occurred
