So, this year has been fraught with strange health problems for me. In the winter, I was very depressed and taking a mood stabilizer, which I developed a (very rare) severe allergic reaction to that landed me in the hospital for two weeks in the spring. I had to be on steroids (prednisone) for a couple months after, which had a ton of side effects that were strange health problems on their own. Then, in August, my friend came back from another country with scabies, which I caught. Next, about two weeks ago, I caught lice. No idea how. So I had scabies and lice at the same time.. And suddenly last night/this morning, I got a UTI out of nowhere.


So what gives? Is this just life, or is there something weird happening? I have natal Uranus and Neptune in the 6th house, but my whole life hasn't been this weird with medical issues. Right now, nothing is transiting my 6th house. I don't know what else to look for.


Also, this may be unrelated, but on Friday, a random guy assaulted me on the street and I had to call the cops. Then when I got back to my dorm, someone had stolen my favorite shirt out of the dryer and threw the rest of my clothes in the trash. I've heard about the solar flare phenomenon but not sure if that has anything to do with the health issues.. Anyway, any insight is appreciated.

The spring, as in April?
In August tNeptune was conj the ruler of your 6th, now it's moving away from the 1 deg orb.
It's coming back next Feb.

Neptune + 6th = strange.
Nep-toon anything is strange.

The prednisone weakened your immune system, making you susceptible to infections and illnesses.

You're still quite young. My advice to you (now that I've hit 36 and I am starting to feel in my 30s) is to take good care of yourself before you experience your first Saturn return & later, the other midlife transits you have to get through:

Neptune square natal Neptune
Saturn opposite natal Saturn
Uranus opposite natal Uranus
Pluto square natal Pluto

Learn to put yourself first.

I have saturn, neptune and uranus in 6th house too! My health is good now, but my parents has always been careful with my diet since I was young… I do have stomach issues though, and I lose weight and its hard for me to gain it again…
I think you should really pay attention to your health with these placement and maybe some alternative healthcare will help too It is "untraditionally" problems we got with these placement and they probably also need "untraditionally" solutions…

Also I would say - avoid eating conventional foods filled with strange chemicals, artificial colors and flavors like candy and fast food. Eat healthy ecological foods, a lot of vitamins through natural sources and do meditation, sports and avoid perfume, deodorants and cloth wash powder filled with chemicals

Interesting. Thanks you guys Geeky, what does the saturn return entail?
I do eat really healthily, always have. I have had unhealthy habits but working on those of course. I do wonder just how much the prednisone affected me in the long term, but i actually feel physically better than i have in the past two years or so.

Hello - I hope you're feeling better today.

I am a graduate student of Chinese medicine and I conduct much research into the astrological influences & the individual pathos, as well as epidemiological influences. You are right to investigate the 6th house, but there is nothing truly disastrous there (have you suffered any chronic leg issues? circulation issues??)

Take everything I say with a grain of salt, but my explanation is as follows:

Around last December, Jupiter began to transit out of Cancer and into Leo. You are a Leo ascendant, but the constellation occupies the 12th house, sharing it with Cancer. Experiences in the 12th house are isolating and challenging. Emotional upsets, especially egoistic conflicts and deflation/ depression of passion are notable here. Jupiter is our spiritual guide, and often times we are forced to reflect here—as if our karma manifests a glass prison. It can be a very trying time, and you may have found yourself caught between a strong desire for the past, and a strong desire to be nurtured. Yet no where to turn to.

This could have especially peaked in the early summer when the Sun, Moon, and Jupiter were all nestled in your 12th house. I am not sure if this is a good or bad sign. Perhaps this was the initiative to recover, or certain persons came to assist you. Maybe you found your own light again.

In regard to your skin upset, I am so sorry. I have had scabies and it is without a doubt one of the most awful experiences! I looked into the transits of Venus (skin) and she & Jupiter had a conjunction during mid-August. This can manifest as much heat, or rash, or even infectious/ sexual disease (venus / jupiter are moist planets). Parasites, too, then. I am trying to recall my own encounter to see if it matches up. I do know that I became ill this year during the Sun/Jupiter conjunct (apprx. July 18). Or was it the Jupiter/Venus conjunct (apprx. Aug 18)? Lots of energy in your 12th house..

Interestingly enough, on Aug 18 you also had Mercury apprx. conjunct your natal Mars, and opposition your natal Saturn. Sounds like a recipe for trouble, though I'd be hard pressed to say just what or how. Maybe the parasitic infections? Deserves more scrutiny, I say.

Jupiter will soon go into retrograde and stay hovering in your 12th house for some time. What does this mean? More emotional frustrations? Isolation --potentially? Just be aware that much of the upsets are bubbling up from your unconscious, from your memories or past, or from your desire to transform. What is holding you back?

Cut up rosemary and put it on toast with a little butter every day. The rosemary is a good solar herb and the butter will facilitate good delivery of the nutrients. If you are on no more prescription drugs, try St. Johns wort tea. This is important for you as a leo asc. Use sage incense to clear the stagnant air in your home, and to stimulate your brain. Do yin exercises like qi gong or dancing so you can stimulate the free flow of liver qi. The more you stagnate, the more this 12th house influence harasses you.

The benefit of 12th house experiences (as ****** as they are) is that they become the basis for 1st house transformations -- think of this like the point at which you are shedding old skin. It is painful but necessary, and the resulting persona is refined, more aware, & stronger.

Weakened venus shows through your skin pathogens. The parasites weakened them too. Give self massage with natural oils like coconut or avocado oil, not your face though because the oil will clog the pores.


Mind telling me if you are a hot blooded person? More anxious? You've got a lot of fire going on, but also powerful water energy from scorpio. Hmmm. Lot's to investigate. We need to figure out if the depression is manifesting as excess yang or yin. We need to find out if the depression is due to the hun or shen.

Checked for Friday -- concerning your unfortunate encounters -- and Venus was transiting your natal Mars/ Saturn like Mercury was, in conjunction & opposition respectively. That seems like a dark influence... !! Perhaps exacerbated by the placement of Jupiter. Hmmmmm!

Wow, thanks for this!
I haven't been having any leg/circulation issues.

About the twelfth house - I knew it was coming and I was really excited for it. I had done a spell for good health the night before I landed in the hospital for the allergic reaction, because I knew I had to do something since things were spiraling quickly downhill at the end of February (long story). So I did the spell and on the day after, March 3rd, I was so sick I went to the hospital and had to leave school to go home until the Fall. So I saw the 12th house Jupiter transit as a time for me, seeing as I had 5 months to myself. It pretty much worked out that way; I solved the problems I had in the winter. Some big some small


"It can be a very trying time, and you may have found yourself caught between a strong desire for the past, and a strong desire to be nurtured. Yet no where to turn to." - This is definitely how I felt during the winter/early spring.


The transit that you said is 'looking for trouble' was actually a chill, productive period for me. I think because of my natal mars-pluto.jupiter square, moon-uranus square, mars in 1H, and some other aspects, that I sort of thrive on the hard mars transits. I've noticed I feel worse with transits like the moon crossing over the ascendant (easily affected but not received well, and too vulnerable).


"Weakened venus shows through your skin pathogens."
By weakened, do you mean from a transit, or natally?

I will try the St. John's wort tea. Am I a hot blooded person? My skin is always hot to the touch; people ask if I have a fever but that's just the way I am. Weird because my best friend is always very cold and clammy and we can't hold hands because of this. I also get so affected by intense movies / situations that I get a fever. From emotions. Basically I am probably overly passionate but most people can't tell. And the ones that can tell - they are always trouble ! Lol
Anyway thanks a lot for this!

Thanks to you too for responding, it helps my research. I see what you mean by the receptivity of your Mars & those aspects -- good insight. And I've noticed with a few persons that the Moon/ Asc. conjunction evokes similar reactions. Very intriguing, eh!?

I wonder if we can calibrate the behavior of the planet transits in accordance with your nativity? Like the chill time with Mercury, then the upset/assault with Venus... It would make sense, too, as Mars is housed in Virgo in the 1st H. of your natal chart. So that might breed affinity toward Mercury, whereas Venus has her "Fall" in Virgo, and is also housed in Scorpio in your chart. Perhaps those old conventions could help us understand better the fluctuations in your health, too.

Concerning your question: I'd say your natal Venus is slightly weakened, but the transit exacerbated it. Traditional astrology indicates Venus is in detriment when in Scorpio. Venus is related to the lungs, large intestine, throat (thyroid), kidneys (mercury has more credence here), and especially the genitals. I have a hard time interpreting how this could possibly manifest in the person (especially because I've had relationships with a few Scorpio Venusians & they were lovely, if not very private / intense!).

Actually, wait. One of them had Vitiligo. That's the skin condition where your pigmentation diminishes and it turns white. So, perhaps Venus could also be our 'appearance' and the detriment could indicate some sensitivity in our expression. But can we determine the nature of the pathology based solely within the natal chart? There are karmic processes that would distort the illness's manifestation---making it hard to know whether it would arise as physiological or psychic or both (both I say!).

The skin conditions could manifest not as chronic but as singular issues, too. Such as the scabies and lice. Interesting.

Yes, your chart denotes lots of warmth. If you feel like you overheat easily, eat more cucumber and melons to replenish body fluid. Choleric foods like garlic, cayenne, spicy stuff can irritate that more, so use them sparingly. Chamomile teas with lemon & honey are good for clearing liver heat. Dandelion salads to clear your liver heat and calm your emotions. Green tea. Avoid grease, sugar and caffeine to cool your blood (these are full of calories which burn like wild fire in your body leading to inflammation of all sorts, esp. if you have hot blood).

HMMMMM....
