Fighting infections? Your Mars decides your immunity [Astrology]

Mars fuels the body’s defenses, a silent guardian in the battle against illness. In Vedic astrology, its placement shapes resilience, the strength to fight infections, or the weakness that allows them in. Some bodies burn with resistance, fighting off disease with unyielding force. Others falter, struggling against unseen threats, drained by battles they cannot win.

The 6th house, a battlefield of health, determines how the body responds. Mars here can bring a strong immune system, one that repels sickness with fierce resistance. But if weak, it falters, leaving the body exposed. Some fevers come and go, a fight well fought. Others linger, draining energy, leaving exhaustion behind.

In the 8th, the struggle deepens. Mars here governs recovery, the ability to heal from illness. A strong placement fuels regeneration, wounds sealing fast, infections burning out quickly. A weak Mars, however, slows the process. Illness lingers, complications arise, and the body fights longer than it should. Strength fades, and healing becomes a drawn-out war.

The 12th house hides silent threats. Here, Mars brings unseen battles, infections without symptoms, illnesses without clear causes. The body weakens without warning, defenses slipping away. A hidden fever, an ailment doctors cannot name, a fight waged in the dark. Recovery feels distant, uncertain, just beyond reach.

The zodiac shapes Mars’s influence. Fire signs burn through sickness fast, sometimes too fast, leading to inflammation. Water signs absorb illness deeply, letting it settle unnoticed. Planetary aspects shift the balance—some offering strength, others stripping it away.

Remedies whisper of protection. Herbs, mantras, sacred rituals—each an attempt to strengthen Mars’s force. Yet, the body remains vulnerable, easily overtaken. The search for balance continues, a fragile fight against forces unseen.
