I think I am called to be a Medical Astrologer but I am just starting this pursuit. In studying one of my books( and it is quite complicated), I was drawn to the discussion of planets in the Fall, as is Mars in Cancer. The Fall position is important in Medical Astrology. This is my Mars so I looked with great interest. It indicated that Mars in Cancer will be prone to stomach problems. We are said to have “vulnerable stomach”. I had to laugh because this describes my stomach. It was not this way until after the birth of my second son. I would say that the precipitating events were that of many, many stressful situations which reached critical mass, as I call it. In simple terms, I could not take one more iota of stress. When this level of stress transpired, I started to have stomach problems.
By stress, I am referring to both inner and outer stress. The inner stress was how I processed the outer stress. The outer stress was a factor but my processing of it was a bigger factor. I did not have the level of inner coping mechanisms that I needed. This was not my fault. My childhood was one in which I did not learn sensible ways to cope. I thought that if I were only perfect that I would have the perfect life. You can imagine how far this took me. I imagine I am not alone in this kind of immature or stunted thinking. However, again, it was not my fault. I simply did not know better. At any rate, I had many betrayals. Also, I had two small children age two and a newborn. Hence, critical mass was reached and my vulnerable organ, my stomach, began to suffer.
AT the time of the birth of my second son, I started having a hard time eating. I got very thin, which is the dream of all girls in this society. I enjoyed being thin but then I became too thin and found I could not gain weight, if I wanted. My stomach could only eat small amounts. I see God as directing my life and healing was no exception. I found a health food store which specialized in raw food. I studied the subject and found that raw food had the enzymes which helped it digest. I got lots of raw food cookbooks because I love to cook, which is another Moon in Cancer and Mars in Cancer hobby. As I ate raw food, I started healing. I started getting color back in my skin and started feeling more energy. I was very grateful to be on the journey to wellness.At another health food store, I discovered Kombucha. This is a drink with enzymes. It will provide what yogurt provides in a much better form. Once I started drinking Kombucha, I felt I would be fine, in time. It is very powerful and I still drink it.
I was on the way to healing but still had not addressed the emotions which had started the stomach problems. Doing this is much harder than changing eating habits. The journey was longer and I am not at the end. There may not be an end. However, Mars in Cancer finds it very, very difficult to express emotions. Instead, it puts them in the stomach. The stomach holds the unexpressed emotions and it gets sick.
I will be back
