In his latest book, Dr. David Frawley unlocks ancient astrological understandings of the human body''s inherent weaknesses based on positions of the planets and stars at birth. In so doing, he guides us to avert sickness by applying detailed traditional Vedic remedial measures and then helps us understand the karma behind illnesses when they do manifest.

Dr. Frawley is amazingly intelligent, and his thorough writings of Ayurvedic Astrology show his indept knowledge of this subject. I am currently taking a correspondence course with him.
This is an excellent book to study ayurveda and astrology. The language is easy to grasp and it clearly illustrates the correlation between the two. I studied this book along with Simon Chokoisky lectures and it was quite a combo.
Using Vedic Astrology in the Sidereal Zodiac, has an approach that expands on the elements and features useful and practical ways of improving ones awakening and health.
