Hips, thighs, liver, sciatic

Classical ailments

Sagittarius is linked to the hips, thighs, liver, and sciatic nerve. Classical texts interpret sciatic pain, hip dislocation, thigh injuries, liver fatigue, and problems from alcohol and overeating with this sign. Jupiter rulership combines the liver's cleansing role with the tendency toward excess.

Galenic remedy

Galenic treatment: liver-supporting herbs — milk thistle, chicory, juniper. Middle path against excess; intermittent fasting. Regular hip-thigh stretches; walking and horseback. Alcohol limit. Contact with nature regulates hepatic energy.

Modern note

⚠ Liver enzymes should be checked annually. For persistent sciatic pain, spinal MRI may be needed.
