Astrology And Food

Here are some important facts that astrology can help you understand - 

Loss of health 

If you eat your meals on the bed or on the couch (if you use it as a bed i.e.), it is an invitation to long term health problems. Food intake is the 2nd house of the horoscope but when one eats food on the bed, one is joining the 2nd and the 12th house, which denotes the bed and various other things like hospitals and losses. And because 12th house is 12th from the 1st (house of our physical self), it indicates loss of health. 

Loss of peace 

If you eat food too quickly, you join the 2nd and the 3rd house. The 3rd house of the horoscope, denotes effort and struggles. This shows that a person is struggling within and lacks peace of mind. Since the 3rd house is 12th from the 4th house of peace of mind, it shows someone getting more peaceless due to how they eat. 

Gain of peace 

Moon is exalted in an artha (earth) sign (Taurus), and moon denotes our mind, food and nutrition, money and pleasures of life. So, when you eat your meals sitting on the floor, you take your moon to the point of exaltation. Doing this as a habit is highly beneficial to all the other aspects that moon denotes. 

Gain of health 

Sun denotes your immunity, your health, digestion, vitality, and physical wellbeing. When you eat your meals between Sunrise and Sunset, you can digest better and remain healthy. Your metabolism slows down after sunset and do does the digestion. Eating late is not just bad for the gut but also disturbs one’s sleep cycle. 

Food choices

Rahu denotes excessive hunger, extreme food habits and an appetite for all sorts of exotic and foreign things. Ketu denotes lack of hunger, ability to fast and a fondness for traditional foods, root vegetables and herbs. 

Allergies 

A person with a weak moon will find digesting milk and milk products hard. Can have lactose intolerance. A person with a weak Sun, will find gluten a problem. A person with a weak Jupiter could have issues with lentils and chickpeas flower. A person with a weak Mercury can have issues with leafy green vegetables, particularly spinach.
