The Decumbiture Chart

The Decumbiture chart

Traditionally, astrology was used to diagnose disease through the Zodiac-Planets-Body link.

The fact that a Zodiacal sign may hint at a weakness, or that your personal horoscope may point to a potential physical ailment, does not mean that this will physically eventuate. It could be that you show an interest in that part of the body or there may be an inherited disease.

The link between the body parts and organs ruled by each Zodiac sign and the possible diseases and symptoms are shown below. Medical astrology is a complex subject, and the below should be considered only as a very general introduction.
