Do I have cancerous knots in my body?

An old friend who has also become an old client asked me this question. At first glance I was not keen on looking at this chart, as this is not a matter of a cold or even a fracture but something way more serious. Medical doubts should be handled by a medical practitioner, indeed before an astrologer. But I gave in after her insistence and only after she promised to get the 'knots' checked out irrespective of what my answer was. 

The following chart was cast:




The ongoing DBA is of Ke-Ve-Ju.

Ke signifies 1 6 8 and 1 4 10 concerned with disease and slow action of medicines. 

Venus too signifies 1 4 10 and 1 6 8 with similar outcome. 

Jupiter signifies 1 6 8 and 1 4 as well.

So overall it is best if the native gets herself checked with a doctor as soon as possible. If the doctor has any room for doubt, then get a second opinion as Ketu is known to cause diagnostic confusion.

I decided to examine this using K.P. as well. While strictly this 'cancerous knots' is not a medical diagnosis, it is a estimate of sorts and so I decided to apply the rules of checking whether the diagnosis is correct or not.

The rules of the same are as follows:

Shahasane says if the 6th CSL is posited in a 'sthira' rashi or the starlord of the 6th CSL is posited in a 'sthira' rashi, and the 6th CSL signifies any one of 1/6/8/12 cusps, then the doctors diagnosis is correct. Notably, it is enough if ANY ONE of the 6th CSL or the 6th CSL's starlord is in a 'sthira' rashi, the other can be in a 'chara' rashi, NOT in a 'ubhaya' rashi.

So when is the diagnosis incorrect? Shahasane says, if the 6th CSL is Mercury or the 6th CSL is in the star of Mercury, OR the 6th CSL or the starlord of the 6th CSL (any one of them) is posited in a 'ubhaya' rashi OR are within a 4 degree orb of Mercury, then the diagnosis that exists at the time of this prashna is wrong.

Let us examine this chart. 6th CSL is Sun. Sun is posited in Aries (chara rashi) and in the star of Ketu. Ketu is posited in Aquarius which is a 'sthira' rashi. So neither of the two are in an ubhaya rashi. Notably, Sun and Mercury are usually not too far away from each other, so I checked that Mercury is more than 4 degrees away from the Sun. Sun signifies the 8th house via its star lord occupying the same.

As such this corroborates the Nadi conclusion that indeed the native should visit a physician at the earliest.
