Ayurveda and Jyotish science are complimentary to each other and have incorporated concepts of each other. The review of Jyotish literature had showed that malefic planets causes specific diseases based upon their position in particular horoscope. It is observed that the planets also represent the particular dhatus mentioned in Ayurveda (Surya = Asthi, Chandra = Rakta, Mangal = Majja, Budha = Rasa, Guru = Meda, Shukra = Shukra, Shani = Mamsa). The review of Ayurvedic literature showed that there are seven dhatus viz. Rasa (Plasma), Rakta (Blood), Mamsa (Muscles), Meda (Fat), Asthi (Bones) , Majja (Bone marroe and nervous tissue) and Shukra (Semen with sperms) which forms the various tissue of the body and supports the body. In Ayurveda they are also called as ‘Dooshyas’ as they get vitiated by doshas. Ayurveda had described the Dhatu dushtijanya diseases. Attempt has been made to study the interrelation between Graha induced diseases and Dhatu dushtijanya diseases. It is concluded that there exists a definite interrelationship between malefic Graha induced diseases mentioned in Jyotish science and Dhatu dushtijanya diseases mentioned in Ayurvedic science.
