Predicting mental and physical defects

Some individuals are born with certain mental defects or physical defects, deformities or malformations.  One cannot help one’s congenital mental or physical defects. One should try to cope with such defects oneself. 

Meanwhile, some individuals incur mental and physical defects due to accidents or other unforeseen circumstances. Here comes the usefulness of Astrology. For a competent astrologer by carefully studying one’s Natal Chart is able to predict whether one is due to suffer a mental illness or a physical defect like blindness, deafness, dumbness or some other physical deformity.  However, Astrology is not a science that says what is predicted cannot be prevented. Astrology is there to help one to prevent such a personal calamity by forewarning for taking necessary precautions.  Now let us get familiar with planetary combinations or positions that indicate mental and physical defects that one is likely to suffer sooner or later.

Readers also should remember in this context that the malefic planets responsible for causing mental and physical defects acquire the power to inflict such defects on the native during their Maha Dasas and Antar Dasas and also when they are transiting the Dusthana or evil Houses in the Horoscope.   

Blindness, defective vision or eye disease
If born into Leo Lagna while being aspected by Mars and Saturn, the native would go blind.
When Mars and Saturn are posited in the 9th House when an eclipsed Sun is in the Lagna the native would become blind. 
Blindness is indicated if the Sun, Moon, Mars and Saturn are posited in the 2nd, 8th, 6th and 12th Houses at birth.
If born into Leo Lagna which is aspected by Venus, the native would suffer eye disease which could lead to blindness. 
Native can go blind if the Sun and Rahu occupy the Lagna and Mars and Saturn are posited in trines.
