Which planet is responsible for physical growth?
In Vedic astrology, the planet primarily responsible for physical growth and expansion is Jupiter (Guru). Jupiter is considered the planet of growth, wisdom, abundance, and prosperity. It governs both mental and physical expansion, including the nourishment and overall development of the body. A strong and well-placed Jupiter in the birth chart is associated with good health, physical growth, and vitality.
Other planets also contribute to different aspects of physical growth and constitution:
- Mars (Mangal): Represents strength, stamina, and physical energy. It rules muscles, blood, and physical vitality, making it crucial for building physical strength.
- Sun (Surya): Governs general vitality and life force. It represents one’s overall health and constitution.
- Saturn (Shani): Regulates the structure and framework of the body, such as bones and joints. While Saturn can sometimes limit growth, it provides stability and endurance.
- Moon (Chandra): Governs nourishment, fluids, and emotional well-being, impacting physical growth indirectly through nurturing and care.
So, while Jupiter is the primary planet for physical growth, the influence of Mars, Sun, Saturn, and Moon also plays significant roles in shaping one’s physical development
