ABSTRACT Indian Astrology is a useful and path-leading science since VEDIC era, but its use in medical is perhaps the
most important one. Is it not a fact that mystery of so many diseases and health troubles is still unrevealed even
by much advanced modern medical science. The astrological and planetary connection to various diseases has already been estab-
lished beyond the shadow of doubt by our wise sages of ancient time, but much of their knowledge had not percolated to posterity
with the passage of time and lack of proper scientific approach could not make much headway in this arena of Predictive Medical
Astrology Zone. Medical Astrology is a proven and an invaluable diagnostic tool that leads to speedy recovery and lasting cures.
