I'll discuss both the event timing and the overall health profile below. Here is a summary of the things that draw my eye about her natal chart's health situation:Dr. Millard wrote:...Judy and Johnnie, who stayed with them when his mother worked, were playing doctor and nurse. They found some pink pills in her mother's handbag and administered them to each other. A few minutes later, Jody's mother realized that her bottle of tranquilizers was empty.
"He ate them," said Jody. "I didn't eat them... he ate them." They were... driven to the nearest hospital. The little boy, who had a pink tongue. was given some syrup of ipecac and his stomach was washed out. Jody, who strictly maintained that she had not had any, was given some ipecac, but did not vomit. They believed her, and did not lavage her stomach.
On the way home, she had a convulsion, and he mother took her to the other hospital, where... I was left on duty. She was becoming drowsy, and it was obvious that she would soon be in coma... I called the drug company... By the time I reached him, Jody was deeply in coma... He had some good news and some bad news. The good news was that they had not lost a child with this kind of tranquilizer poisoning. They bad news was that... she would certainly be in coma for two or three days.
Meanwhile, Jody began to have seizures. We did not know it at the time, but this was the beginning of her epilepsy, which later showed up in her brother also. She hung between life and death, and we had some very, very anxious moments.
Tjhe drug company representative was quite right. She did recover, as we said she would, and after four days she was as good as new.
Moon in Cancer - I can't see that it's involved in this case. Moon's most important aspect is a mundane opposition to Venus (middleground), showing her formative life/parent profile was marked by a loving, caring mother, but no health problems unless affecting hormonal and "feminine" issues. These are less likely, since it's middleground.
Mars in Virgo might show a vulnerable body part.
Background Jupiter opposite Neptune, both square Mercury ecliptically (Mercury-Jupiter 13'). Jupiter-Neptune square Saturn mundanely (Jupiter-Saturn is 12'). The title of Millard's chapter is interesting, since Jupiter-Neptune, and perhaps especially Mercury-Jupiter-Neptune, is a warning of misdiagnosis. Jupiter opposite Neptune (background) is in Aries-Libra, the only focus in the chart on the Aries-Libra "head" axis that I would have guessed for epilepsy and migraine. Some theories to examine:
- Mercury-Jupiter. Interactions of nervous system and digestion. Proper nutrition for nervous system (fatty acids, B-complex vitamins, antioxidants). – State of mind conducive to healing, or intelligent medical intervention.
- Mercury-Neptune. Atrophy, weakening, or paralysis of the nerves, loss of sensory or perceptual ability. Disorientation, misperception, distortions of data and communication. Psychiatric disorders.
- Jupiter-Saturn. The accretion-excretion balance (digestion, assimilation, elimination). Digestive system ailments, liver disease. Good bone and joint health. Orthodox treatment, healing through passage of time (effective survivors).
- Jupiter-Neptune. Deep relaxation of abdominal muscles. Weakness or atrophy affecting digestive organs. Liver disease (toxins). Water retention. Eating disorders (gastroparesis). Misdiagnosis, errors in treatment.
- Saturn-Neptune. Chronic, often disabling physical or psychological afflictions (dark, troubled states, depression; chronic pain or weakness; physical immobility, paralysis, or other frailty e.g. Guillain-Barre syndrome). Bone weakening (osteopenia, osteoporosis).
- Mars-Pluto. Cell inflammation. Catabolic processes. Accelerated energy generation. Stress or strain injuries (hypertension?). – Radical healing approaches (cell regeneration or cell damage). – May be a key to some forms of cancer.
