About Dr. Rahul Kamat
Dr. Rahul Kamat is a Medical Astrologer specialising in the traditional principles of Vedic Medical Astrology and their relevance to contemporary health and wellbeing. His work explores the relationship between planetary patterns, individual constitution, lifestyle, and preventive awareness, with a consistent emphasis on responsible, accessible interpretation. He presents medical astrology as a complementary traditional perspective — one that encourages self-awareness while fully respecting the essential role of modern medicine.
Dr. Kamat holds an MBBS from Bombay University and a Master of Medical Education (MME) from the University of Berne. He is a Jyotish Visharada through the Indian Council of Astrological Sciences (ICAS), where he serves as faculty and Head of the Mumbai Chapter.
His work sits at the intersection of science and tradition. A long-standing interest in modern medicine and anatomy led him to explore what he describes as “mystical anatomy” — the spiritual correlates of the human body across both traditional and modern frameworks.
His approach holds modern medicine as the essential first line of defense, while using Jyotiṣa and Ayurveda to enrich the understanding of health, disease pathogenesis, and the significance of cellular and tissue-level patterns. For Dr. Kamat, medical astrology is less a predictive tool than a lens for self-awareness and holistic alignment — an aid to healing, not a substitute for it.
