Drug Addiction and Alcoholism

Astrological Indicators of Drug Addiction

The 6th House: This house governs health, habits, and daily routines. Malefic influences like Rahu or Saturn in the 6th house can indicate tendencies toward addiction, as these planets can amplify unhealthy habits.
The 8th House: Known for transformation and hidden desires, afflictions in the 8th house may lead to isolation or emotional turmoil, pushing individuals towards addiction, such as drugs, to cope with these internal struggles.
The 12th House: This house relates to loss, detachment, and escapism. Malefic planets like Rahu, Mars, Venus, and Saturn here can lead to escapism through drug use, especially if the house is weak.

Planets Responsible for Drug Addiction

Rahu: Known for obsession and cravings, Rahu can lead to addictions when strongly influencing certain houses or planets in the chart.
Moon: The Moon governs the mind and emotions. If afflicted, it can lead to emotional instability, increasing the likelihood of using substances as an emotional escape.
Saturn: A negative placement of Saturn can bring a sense of hopelessness, causing the person to seek relief through drug use, further exacerbating isolation and negativity.

Nakshatras and Addiction

Certain Nakshatras, like Ashlesha, Jyeshtha, and Moola, are associated with intense transformation. When influenced by malefic planets, these Nakshatras can contribute to self-destructive habits, including drug addiction.
