The kidneys and reproductive system are among the most refined expressions of balance in the human body.
In astrology, they are governed primarily by Venus (Sukra) and the zodiac signs Libra (Thula) and Scorpio (Vrischika).
Venus represents harmony, vitality, and fertility - the planet of both beauty and biological reproduction.
When Venus or Libra are afflicted, the flow of life energy (Sukra Dhatu) becomes disturbed, manifesting as kidney issues, hormonal imbalance, or emotional strain in relationships.
“Venus is the artist of life - when love turns mechanical, vitality fades.”
| Astrological Factor | Governs | When Afflicted | 
|---|---|---|
| Venus (Sukra) | Kidneys, urinary system, hormones, fertility | Kidney stones, hormonal imbalance, infertility | 
| Libra (Thula Rasi) | Lower back, kidneys, fluid balance | Renal stress, relationship imbalance | 
| Scorpio (Vrischika Rasi) | Reproductive organs, sexual vitality | Blocked energy, infections, reproductive strain | 
| Moon | Hormonal cycles, fluids | Irregular periods, water retention | 
| Mars | Libido, blood flow | Inflammation, urinary infections | 
| 6th & 8th Houses | Disease & transformation | Chronic kidney or reproductive issues | 
Venus rules both pleasure and purification - reminding us that desire without discipline strains the body’s most delicate systems.
Venus-Rahu or Venus-Saturn conjunctions
	→ Kidney stones, reproductive delays, or emotional detachment.
Venus afflicted in Libra or Scorpio
	→ Fertility challenges, hormonal swings, or relational tension.
Moon under Saturn’s aspect (especially in Libra)
	→ Dehydration, menstrual irregularity, or emotional coldness.
Mars and Venus in conflict
	→ Overexertion, sexual imbalance, or inflammation in lower abdomen.
Weak 7th or 8th house
	→ Suppressed intimacy or poor reproductive vitality.
Venus represents love without condition. When distorted, it seeks validation instead of connection.
Astrologically, kidney and reproductive issues reflect imbalance between giving and receiving love - overdependence, guilt, or emotional coldness.
Karmically, the lesson is sacred balance: to purify love from lust, and desire from attachment.
“When love becomes a transaction, the body begins to protest.”
Illnesses related to Venus or kidneys often activate during:
Healing phases appear during Jupiter-Venus or Moon-Jupiter periods - when compassion replaces expectation.
| Aspect | Practice / Remedy | Purpose | 
|---|---|---|
| Venus | Fasting on Fridays, offering white flowers to Goddess Lakshmi | Balances sensual and emotional energy | 
| Moon | Staying hydrated, meditation on love & acceptance | Regulates hormonal rhythm | 
| Mars | Moderate physical activity, avoid spicy foods | Reduces internal heat | 
| Libra-Scorpio Signs | Wearing clean white or pastel colors, decluttering surroundings | Restores emotional clarity | 
Practical Tips:
“Purity in intention is the highest remedy for Venus.”
Astrology helps identify timing and temperament - when stress builds and why it manifests.
But kidney or reproductive disorders require medical attention.
Combining astrology’s emotional awareness with science’s precision offers true healing - both in body and soul.
Venus teaches that health is harmony - not absence of desire, but alignment between love and discipline.
When affection is pure and emotions flow freely, the kidneys and reproductive system thrive.
“Love is sacred when it nourishes, not when it consumes.”
