I remember as a child (6 years old) being fascinated with a painting/picture of a naked woman with all the signs of the zodiac overlayed all over her body.  It's just a visual image that stucks in my memory vault.

Now I'm thinking, can astrology time or project, with a reasonable degree of accuracy (say 80%) when a particular illness' symptoms will manifest/culminate based on the natals, progressions, transits to both natals and progressions, and synastric/composite triggers with another individual.

Based on observation, there are instances that being around an individual would actually bring out all your pains, aches and discomfort. And sometimes, being in a particular place or with another person feels therapeutic. 

I have a strong and serious relationship with pain. I will have to look into my chart about that at a later date perhaps but for now I'm more concerned about other people's pains and I want to study all about it.

Any information on sources about these would be much appreciated, thank you. Otherwise your own musings and observations would suffice.

I usually associate health with the 6th house and I've looked at it as extensively as I can. My Saturn Return is in 6th house Virgo and I noticed a lot of digestive and nervous issues popping up when I have been under highly stressful situations. 

Also, I believe your sun sign can say something about illnesses. I'm an Aries so I'm prone to migraine and tension headaches. I've had them since I was 7 years old.

Funny how you mentioned your migraine being an aries sun.  My bestfriend from preschool (yes! talk about lifelong relationships here) used to literally bang her head against the wall when the migraine bouts hit her.

I tried that... :P Banging my head against the wall... it's weird how that actually made my head feel better, but I found that my brain is much too important to me than anything else, so I decided to stop banging the wall and dwell in darkness.

Orgasms are the best cure for migraines.

Dina2, right on, thats  the Rx.

During my 7 year marriage I had a lot of physical pain. Our sex life wasnt great. He was a lot of fire/air  and I am a lot of earth water. So I really need the sensual side of sex and he just wanted me to put on clothes and take pictures of me and wham bam. But even the wham bam, made me feel much better during my peak hormonal cycles.

After I had some "lovins" with a water/earth male and I felt real nice energy merging and blending, my pain was even more relieived. ( I had been doing meditation on releasing my pain on my own) But there's nothing like lovin.

Even masturbating if one has to.

Geez. Im getting really outspoken tonight for a Virgo.

I hope you all dont judge me as harshly as I will judge myself!)

Like Lunalie I'm an Aries sun and also suffer from migraines.. I get them for about 4 or 5 days every single month. They are hormonally triggered as opposed to food triggered.

Not sure what to attribute my rubbish immune system to, but I pick up every cold and throat infection going, have since I was a child. I eat very well, take all the suggested supplements that boost immunity, wash my hands allll the time etc etc. Plus I regularly give myself Reiki and Reflexology. This last winter I was only well for two weeks out of 5 months.

I have Taurus in the 6th house.

Chamirose, LOL! I use the term "lovins" too.

One thing I have to say about health. I can't begin to relate it to astrology.

But I will recommend the following site for herbal supplements to rid the body of pain and inflammation, fix hormone imbalance, lower blood pressure, etc.

http://dherbs.com. I have had amazing results with their detox, pancreas stimulator, and female hormone kits - and I haven't even followed his diet to the tee. (He recommends all fruit and veg, no meat while on the detox, but forget that, i can't live without meat. So what I did was eat a lot of bean-based soups and stews, tons of veggies, lots of yogurt, nuts and seeds, and a little bit of chicken/occasional fish so I wouldn't starve. I think I cheated one day a week also).

Anyway, these herbal kits he sells are like the "hump" that you need to get over to start seeing your body get back on track. If you can't lose weight and then you take the supplements and do what he says... get your regular exercise... it really does work.

I have been pooping funny lately so I probably need another digestive fixer upper. But TMI!

as Saturn transits my 6th house (Virgo and Libra) i am still trying to fix my neck problems and headaches. I really thought i was getting somewhere; with PT that has me unknotting the knot in my neck/shoulder region, but alas, another migraine has hit, and the PT lady said that migraines don't originate from Neck problems. (hm, maybe mine do?) I don't have aries sun, there are plenty of us sufferers without.

but i'll tell you what, I've seen plenty of evidence that those big old planets DO affect the health of people around me.

the biggest most obvious is how tired we all are the nights right before the new moon.

Hey! I'm not the only one who's exhausted right before the full moon? What's up with that? I thought the full moon made people manic.
