For the past decade, I've also had a stomach condition that doesn't let me get away with eating most things, or even drinking water at times. I'm in a flare right now, so I keep getting sick. I had gone through several periods last year, of barely getting sick, and I'm not sure why. I don't know if I've just pushed it with food, over the past few weeks, or if it was down to stress, but it's been worse. At the end of 2009, I emailed someone, mentioning that every time I ate, it felt like I had food poisoning. That was when it started officially, and I started getting sick that following March.

At the time, I'd been dealing with a lot of anxiety and depression, I started to get really angry over things that were happening (including in relationships), then one of my dogs ended up being very sick that entire year, dying the following year. there was just a lot of stress.

I can't remember what was going on transit-wise. Uranus was still in Pisces, I know the Solar return for 2009 had Venus retrograde conjunct Uranus in Pisces. I suddenly had self-esteem issues crop up (more of them), felt like I was going through an early mid-life crisis, and people with my stomach condition have been told that it can be triggered by an insane amount of stress or anxiety. Even positive stress/excitement can make it worse.

Ugh, I hate Chiron. It is currently conjunct my Ascendant and squaring my Sun/Venus and will remain there for around another two years. I'm sure that is one of the contributing factors.

I personally believe diseases can be triggered psychologically. The mind is incredibly powerful. A year ago I had severe heart palpitations and digestive problems where I was unable to digest anything for about a month and a half except for a few specific foods. I totally get how much of a pain chronic digestive issues are and even more so when there is nothing really to fix it or nothing is detected as an issue. I later found out my issues stemmed from a chakra blockage from the heart which triggered my kundalini to rise.

Right now I'm having severe sciatic pain in my back that has spread to my legs and down to my feet out of nowhere. I know I'm not living in alignment and that has been causing me immense emotional pain.

I try to be healthy. I eat strictly plant-based. I practice yoga and meditation. I'm at a perfectly healthy weight. I don't drink or do drugs and never have. I haven't found anything natally that could depict this. I just don't get it. Admittedly, my sleep schedule hasn't been good for many years. That may be a contributing factor. But I don't know, I know people who are in worst shape than I am and they have nothing wrong with them. Such is life.

Everytime I'd visit the doctor, they'd find nothing wrong with me, so I decided to look for alternatives no matter how nonsensical and ridiculous they may appear. Something I'm now experimenting with is energy cleansing and journaling. Someone who's versed in astrology once mentioned how it's imperative for people with prominent Pisces placements in their chart do energy cleanses regularly since they're more prone to absorb people's energy the most. The guy was like me, getting himself checked at the doctor constantly and nothing was ever found wrong with him despite struggling with chronic pain for years. Once he started doing the cleansing ritual, over time his pain mysteriously vanished. I've also had great results with journaling in the past, linking the subconscious with the conscious mind due to repressed emotions. Within merely three days, my knee pain magically dissipated when I had first done it a year back, so I'm going to be consistent with it now. It is day three for me...I'll see how it goes.

If you read the book "Planets in Transit" by Robert Hand,
he includes health-effects in his transit descriptions.

Oh! I see he has a 2nd Edition now.
Mine is a copy from the 1970s.

There is a kindle and pdf version available, as well as paper.

Moongaze…
I've never seen your chart, so I can't really comment. I could generally 'guess'.

And yes, Dumuzzi's chart is indicative of some of what's gone on for him.

Generally--

I hate it when blame-and-shame gets put ONTO the client, for the limitations of medical science as-it-exists right now. Coldness and LACK of empathy and understanding.

It's my firm opinion that medical folks have FORSAKEN using their intuition and instincts, in tandem WITH the results of tests and machine-diagnosing. They have FORGOTTEN 'the Human'.

When x-ray machines were discovered in the early 1900s, doctors more and more relied on those MACHINES to 'tell' them. If you have broken bones, etc, then those are fabulous for visual-details. BUT!!!

Did you know that doctors in the late 1800s and early 1900s had to show they understood how to set up an astrology chart on a patient, for help at diagnosing things that were not readily-diagnosable?

I've never seen your chart...
Are you also around your "Chiron Return" right now?

The other things you mentioned seem related to the Capricorn-effects of transits right now.

And CERTAINLY Neptune transits? wow--

Okay. I DO understand the mind-body connections, VERY much. Not going to discount that at all. There is a definite connection.

I think it is "generous" of you to cut-slack on medical-personnel, and to revert taking the sacrificial (Neptune) BLAME on yourself for what could be *their* ineptitudes, inadequate training and education, and stony attitudes.

I've heard doctors in E.R. telling patients with false-heart attack symptoms using it as a 'put down' that it was "in their head".

Part of the medical's performing their job IS to have EMPATHY, which is sorely lacking in the day of 'impersonal service' by 'evidence-based' machines-- most don't know how to "properly" palpate the body to 'feel' the problem-area.

And yeah, about STRESS??!

There's an epidemic of stress-related illnesses because we live in "on the edge".

World peace, safety, and security has been violated. Threat of nuclear war-strikes and 'winning' is totally delusional and stupid--

Once that were to 'start', then NATURE-herself will have biological consequences, which will affect our own species' survival!!!!

Look at the nuke accidents that had occurred in Japan? .. Imagine THAT multiplied--- Nope. They are "science-deniers" ???

(song) War, huh- goodgod y'all. What is it good for? absolutely nuthin' ..

#off the soapbox..

We're supposed to adopt a witnessing-type of inner-state right now. It may help dis-engage some body-stress, coming through news reports.

Wishing you (everyone, and myself) a solid core of PEACE like a River-- energetically moving through our soul, mind, and body-- throughout the world and for the Collective.

But now that I'm older, it's an autoimmune illness that I have zero control over, other than to take the meds prescribed to me. I have arthritis and chronic pain that I live with. I associate this with the Saturn/Chiron opposition in my chart.

This is my chart.

I've been meaning to read that book. I will look into it.

Oh yeah, the humanity part is indeed lost and has been for a long time. I think I read that somewhere, about the medical astrology charts. It would be beneficial to implement that back in again, though I don't see that happening anytime soon.

There was one doctor that understood the mind-body connection really well. I have been following Dr. Sarno's protocol on chronic pain recently again as I had luck with it before. He understood the subconscious and conscious mind unlike any other in his profession...must have been a Jungian. Of course, he was laughed at by his peers and taken as a quack, despite healing numerous people including some of the very famous. Anybody who dares to try anything different from the norm would likely end up being crucified. Until later on, probably many years down the line when it is realized there is truth to what was being said.

No, not a Chiron return, but Chiron has been moving around my Ascendant since last year I think.

Transit Neptune has been moving in and out of my Moon in the 12th house and has been since last year. Transit Saturn has also been on my Neptune and exact in the last month when my issues further progressed.

I'm actually very frustrated with the healthcare system and didn't want to blow up on that entirely here, but believe me, I have said some things here and there lol.

I did in fact have a false alarm heart attack episode just last year in the beginning of January and I was told it was nothing but anxiety. The medical professionals were so inclined to prescribe me medication for it, but I declined knowing that's not what was wrong with me and am averse towards medication when there isn't enough information to go by. For some time leading up to it, I had been in a relatively calm state of mind despite my heart, joint pain, and digestive issues and never had an anxiety attack in my life, so I definitely knew that wasn't it. Of course anyone would have some anxiety when they feel like their heart is about to give out...I'd think that was normal.

Then some months later my kundalini rose to my heart center and that's when I knew what it was and I had another intense experience from that. Doctors are unable to understand the spiritual with the physical yet. I'm sure they'd all think it's a bunch of hocus pocus, woo-woo fluff, but it is a true human reality and from experience I am 100% firm on this. I haven't told any practitioner about this because I know they'd laugh at me and think I'd need to be thrown in a straitjacket.

The thing is, the medical profession is going to have to get with the more "right brain" intuitive side of things because I'm certain many more people will be having kundalini experiences in the near future. I think this is a large part of the human evolutionary ascension process going on currently and it is affecting more younger people than before, even now among children. And just in a general sense as well, to have more compassion towards those in any form of pain.

The easier way I've found to make kundalini movements much more smoother is through awareness of breath http://www.oshonews.com/2012/02/22/21-day-silence-and-seclusion/ It is a much less intense than the "yogic" practices but one might need that more sometimes.

I haven't meditated yet today so I can't quite digest everything atm, I might add more later

Analyzing and understanding the process can help one come to peace with it mentally, but at the end of the day, one has to do stuff I've found.

Maintaining the physical health is a must though, otherwise it becomes like almost reaching the finishing line and you can even see it at a distance, but then your body no longer wants to move.

posted January 06, 2020 02:39 PM            

Yeah, I have read about people's physical body declining through this. There were days where I wouldn't meditate because of sitting bone pain. Luckily, I have an essential oil for joint pain now that I use whenever it gets uncomfortable.

There was a time recently where I haven't practiced yoga regularly in nearly two months because of pain in my calves, believing it was a strain and thinking if I took a break it would go away on its own. I had already lost a lot of mobility and flexibility because of it too. I would do exercises to loosen the calf muscles and my legs have improved overall, but the pain in my lower back became worse and spread to my sitting bones and feet. It was like anything I would do to try to ease the pain, whether it was to remain active or not, it would just keep getting worse. It really got to me emotionally.

Just recently, I've been keeping a daily routine of mind/body stuff, core work, and alternating yoga and pilates practices. The breathwork I have recently incorporated back into my practice again is anulom-vilom pranayama and sat kriya. I'll look into the breathwork you provided in the link later on today, especially because the former can be intensive.

I think with Saturn having to do with disease and anything with the bones that this stuff will take time to heal, knowing how Saturn isn't a fast and easy fix kind of planet. I'll have to work hard at it. As you mentioned, consistently everyday.

Oh, I had the heart center awakening! It did get weird for me, but not with sexual preference changes, although I do hear that is a common thing. It did make me feel like I was totally and madly in love with someone whom I barely knew and never before so intensely, like I was connected to their soul from my heart chakra. There were some very strange synchronicites and dreams that came about from it too. The whole thing seemed very mystical, almost unreal.

posted January 07, 2020 11:16 PM            

Yeah, I have felt the same about the heart, its like you are joined with "her" at the heart, honestly though it feels like a ******* chain sometimes, though I also love the person you know. I really dislike talking about my experiences as I find myself getting into this habit of just "talking" and doing things just to "talk about them", like my motive becomes not myself, but my "audience" so to speak, but since I'm in, honestly it feels like at the heart, I'm looking at the world through her eyes and she looks right through mine...hehhe

I will keep all this in mind. I haven't really met anyone who has gone through this personally either. Thank you!

What ended up happening between you and this person?

p.s., one can meditate lying down. I prefer to meditate lying down. I can go much deeper within that way.

posted January 09, 2020 04:05 PM            

Okay, haha. Good to know because I've never done tantra before.

I'm kind of going through an astrology obsession phase again where I'm looking for connections anywhere, trying to clue in to some kind of synchronicity, but I notice I've been doing that a lot outside of it anyway. It would be kind of hard because I love astrology so much.

Despite the more negative transits though, I have been taking action by keeping a list of all the things I need to complete daily in order to heal myself, and I already notice major improvement in only a matter of days. I don't even need the essential oil anymore and I can stand without feeling much pain again. No sleepless nights either. I already feel better, stronger, and more determined than ever. My subconscious programming needed a major overhaul and it already is showing to be effective. So far, I've learned that as long as I seek the change within and follow through with the work, improvement can be made.

No, I get it. I haven't talked about this in depth with anyone because it's awkward and I know talking about it would feel like I watered down the experience. It wouldn't work in seeking understanding either because it's not something that is easily understood, like at all.

Yeah, it does feel like they are everywhere with you, experiencing everything in your life even when the physical pressure in your heart tames down.

It never went anywhere. It was most likely one-sided, and I'll never know because there wasn't any contact during the duration of it nor was there any way to really reach them either. It took months to get over and then eventually it died off for the most part. Now I'm in a place where I feel I've risen above it, thankfully.

I think my experience was atypical though because from what I have gathered, it seems most have communication with the person, but often issues arise where they end up separated. It also put me face-to-face with a darker aspect of myself that was very terrifying for me, but I'm sure that was done so I'd know what to work on in order to ascend. Some of the dreams were really weird too where one directly told me that this person was my twin flame, but I stopped attaching myself to that label even though I know the experience is real.

What Dumuzzi was saying about Vedic science.. Vedic medical is astonishing.

For me, western transits are too.
I use asteroids.
I've seen medical asteroids tell 'specific' stories.

Have had some interesting finds, watching celebrity charts and my own. Certain asteroids will pop into my mind. I've immediately gone to the computer, looked at their transits. They were INDEED making significant and specific connections.

When I heard that Melania Trump had some kidney problems a few years ago, there's a certain health asteroid assigned to that. I looked it up, and yep, this was directly involved within a stellium(?) of faster transiting planets.

When Hilary Clinton had her SEVERE head-injury a number of years ago, that showed up as a specific transit. I had been watching the charts for Bill and her daughter Chelsea at the same time. There was an 'indication' that something important was about to happen. Occurred as Hilary's IC was hit.
.. Maybe~~ you can find transits of family members, even your closest people you live with, reflecting when there's something serious impacting one in the group?

So, some asteroids can be very accurate too.
Seems to be true with some charts, more than others? Can be quite spooky.

Interesting was that Vedic was extremely accurate with some things Western hadn't indicated (maybe, because I hadn't had training). And I DO find that it complements Western.

I actually found Robert Hand's Planets in Transit book randomly at a metaphysical shop just the other day for less than half the price it costs on Amazon.
