PrashnaQuestion TypeDisease Type
Prashna shines for specific yes/no/when questions. For disease type, the relevant houses, lords, and significators are well-defined. Here's the standard reading approach.
Key houses & lords to read
- Six classifications: vata, pitta, kapha, sannipata, agantuka, mansika.
- 6th house and its lord show disease type.
- Mars in 6th: pitta. Saturn in 6th: vata. Moon in 6th: kapha.
Strong yes signals
- Use for early diagnosis support, not replacement of medical evaluation.
- Lagna lord and significator in mutual aspect.
- Strong, applying Ithasala yoga.
- Vargottama placement of Lagna lord.
Caution signals
- Combust significator.
- Significator in 6, 8, or 12.
- Strong Ishrafa (separating) yoga — matter is past.
- Eclipsed time of question.
