Astrological doshas at birth and their traditional remedies
In Vedic astrology, the planetary alignment at the time of birth is believed to have a profound impact on an individual's life. Certain combinations, known as
doshas
, are thought to bring challenges or imbalances. Recognizing these
doshas
early and following traditional remedies may help minimize their negative effects and lead to a more harmonious life.
One of the most commonly known
doshas
is
Mangal Dosha
, which occurs when the planet Mars is positioned in specific houses of the birth chart. Individuals born with this
dosha
may face delays in marriage, relationship issues, or emotional conflicts.
Another significant condition is
Kaal Sarp Dosha
, which arises when all planets are placed between Rahu and Ketu. This is believed to bring hurdles in personal growth, career struggles, and mental unrest.

Similarly,
Pitru Dosha
is linked to ancestral debts or unresolved family karma, which can result in financial instability, health problems, or frequent family disputes.
Nadi Dosha
emerges during horoscope matching when both partners share the same
Nadi
—a factor important in compatibility analysis. It is said to cause complications in marital harmony and difficulties related to childbirth.
Shani Dosha
, resulting from an unfavourable placement of Saturn, often leads to slow progress in career, strained relationships, and a general sense of burden or hardship.

However, these
doshas
are not permanent obstacles. Vedic practices offer various remedies rooted in ritual, devotion, and charity. These may include performing specific
poojas
, fasting on auspicious days, reciting particular mantras, and offering donations to those in need. Acts of spiritual discipline and service are believed to ease the influence of these planetary imbalances over time.
Though astrological
doshas
may sound concerning, they are often manageable through sincere efforts and guidance from experienced practitioners. With faith and consistent practice of recommended rituals, individuals can work toward restoring balance and moving forward with greater peace and confidence.

Jaundice outbreak reported from Muvattupuzha in Ernakulam district
Kochi: A major jaundice (Hepatitis A) outbreak is spreading in Avoly and nearby panchayats in Muvattupuzha, around 47km from the city. Since the first case was reported on May 30, as many as 51 primary cases were reported until Monday. Of the 51 cases, 21 are from Avoly. With the incubation period of Hepatitis A virus being two weeks to 45 days, health authorities expect more cases to surface in the coming days. Officials from district medical office visited Avoly on Monday and directed measures to contain the infection from spreading further. Hepatitis A is contracted from contaminated water or food. The source of the infection is suspected to be food served during a pre-wedding function at a house in Nadukkara, ninth ward of Avoly panchayat, on May 3. Around 150 people, including neighbours and relatives from Avoly, Manjalloor and Arakuzha panchayats in Muvattupuzha and Idukki and Alappuzha districts attended the event. Even ward members contracted jaundice after attending the function. A catering agency, from Marady panchayat, served food at the house on May 3. The same agency served food during a wedding function on May 5. Following the outbreak, health authorities closed the agency. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later [Video] getfittoday Undo Reportedly, the agency used cold water from the house to dilute boiled water before serving it. "Only those who attended the pre-wedding function were infected with jaundice. However, we couldn't collect water samples from the house well for testing as the first case was reported on May 30. Before that, we did routine chlorination in the well as part of the local body's regular exercise. Ice cream, chutney to serve with dosa and other items were served during the function. Items like chutney are prepared with cold water. Also, they diluted boiled water with the house well water. We couldn't confirm which food item was the source of the outbreak. Our current objective is to ensure no secondary infection. For that, an awareness class to those who attended the function is underway," said an Avoly health official. Wells in the affected areas are now being super chlorinated by increasing the quantity of chlorine depending on water in it. Nadukkara ward member Selby John refuted the chances of infection from the house. "The family cleaned their well a week before the function. Hence, there is no chance of it being the source of the outbreak. The source of the infection must be the ice cubes used in welcome drinks. None of those infected is in a serious condition," Selby said.

India's fertility rate: 3 generations reflect evolving family reality
NEW DELHI: Sixty-four-year-old Saraswati Devi was married off at 16 in 1976, and by the time she was 30, she was a mother to five sons. If she could do it all over again, Saraswati says she would have fewer children. But her granddaughter Pooja Kumari today has a voice. A graduate, married at 22, she and her husband decided to not have more than two children. The story of Saraswati, her daughter-in-law and granddaughter - three generations of women reflect India's evolving fertility story and their journey finds space in UNFPA's 2025 State of World Population Report. Residents of Bihar's Sheikhpura district, they reflected on how things have changed from grandmothers to granddaughters over 65 years as women gained a voice slowly to an extent over generations affecting fertility aspirations. Saraswati shared that when she was young all the other women in her village had about that many children. If women had fewer, people thought they were sick, Saraswati recalled. "My mother-in-law always said, "The more children you have, the more hands there are to work in the fields." "We didn't know about contraceptives back then," she said. "When I wanted to stop having children, my mother-in-law insisted that I continue, and I could not disobey her," recalled the 64-year-old. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Device Made My Power Bill Drop Overnight elecTrick - Save upto 80% on Power Bill Pre-Order Undo Her daughter-in law Anita Devi (42) got married when she was 18 years old in the late 1990s. Unlike her mother-in-law, Anita knew about family planning as health workers visited her village. Nevertheless, she ended up having six children- four daughters and two sons - as her husband and mother-in-law wanted more children, especially a son. But things drastically changed for her daughter Pooja Kumari who is 26 and had her first child at 23. In the following three years, she used contraceptives provided by an Accredited Social Health Activist. She recently decided to have a second child. "We want to raise them well, provide them with a good education, and ensure a secure future for our family. A small family is best," she said. The report noted that in 1960, when India's population was about 436 million, the average woman had nearly six children. But in the years that followed, educational attainment increased, access to reproductive healthcare improved, and more women got a voice. The average woman in India now has about two children.
