Planets and Occupations of Doctors, Surgeons and Nurses Part 1

Dr. Shanker Adawal

Part
1

Ptolemy, in his
Tetrabiblos, states that “should Mercury and Mars together be lords of
employment, persons will become statuaries, amour makers, sculptors, modelers
of animals, wrestlers, surgeons, spies or informers, adulterers, busy in crime
and forgers” and when “Venus and Mars exercise dominion together, persons will
become dyers, dealers in unguents and perfumes, workers in tin, lead, gold and
silver, mock combatants or dancers in armours, dealers in medical drugs,
agriculturists and physicians healing by means of medicine-truly a wide range
of occupations for the martian to choose from.

A study of degree
influences, however, leads to a more precise understanding of the conditions in
which Mars denotes the surgeon or the doctor.

The first point to observe
is that the purpose of the surgeon, doctor and the nurse is to heal. Healing is
particularly indicated by Taurus-Scorpio 6 degree to Herschel plus Aquarius-Leo
23 degree, Jupiter Taurus-Scorpio 6 degree – very peculiar degrees. They are
present in the horoscopes of occultists, of healers and (combined with
Cancer-Capricorn 8 degree afflicted) of criminals. They denote that which is
slippery; and there is, perhaps, no more perfect symbol for them than the
symbol of serpent.

Added to these influences
the surgeon has Aries-Libra 2 degree Mars-Neptune combined with Mercury
indicating the means which he takes to heal, namely, by manipulation, probing and
cutting.

Aquarius-Leo 23 degree are
degrees of sympathy or feeling with others- an outflowing or outpouring from
the self.

The physician has a blend
of Aries-Libra 13 degree mars-Neptune. These degrees particularly indicate food
and energy and are combined with other degrees especially Pisces-Virgo 7 degree
to indicate dietetics and pharmacy. Aries-Libra 7 degree of life and death are
also frequently met within the horoscopes of doctors.

The Hindu method of
indicating profession is different. A profession or means of earning a
livelihood may be determined by the houses or planets which are prominent in a
horoscope.

If the 1st is
strong, the native would earn by his personal efforts. If the 2nd is
strong, articles of food or speech would play a prominent part. The 3rd
would indicate service, some connection with brethren, writings and short
travels. The 4th effect would be lands and properties. The 5th
has reference to learning, counsel, children, speculation, games of chance. The
6th would indicate service, labour, professions connected with
sickness. The 7th would indicate partnership, husband or wife,
travelling, etc. The 8th should indicate legacy, imports, exports,
etc. The 9th indication would be contact with foreigners, foreign
lands, law, religion, etc. The 10th is the house of profession and
the nature of profession may be indicated by the lord of the 10th
and the nature of planet or planets occupying or aspecting the 10th.
The 11th is the house of gain or income and planets occupying or
aspecting this house would bring in money according to the planet occupying or
aspecting it. The 12th is connected with places of confinement and
distant lands.

This is only an outline
and does not cover the various matters falling in the province of each house.
In India, among the middle and higher classes, it is the male member who earns.
The women and children, until the latter starts a career, are dependent on the
male member for their livelihood. Good or bad luck of the wife may be reflected
on the husband but as far as Yogas for earning are concerned, they remain in
cold storage.

Whatever be the planetary
positions, millions of people in rural or industrial sectors work as labourers.
Millions of housewives work in that capacity and their means of livelihood is
dependent on their husbands, sons or brothers. It is useless to examine or
analyse their horoscope. Horoscopes of only those persons should be examined
who have an option to follow profession and in such cases the significance of
the house and planet prominent in the chart will reveal the ability to earn in
a particular manner.
