In the body millions of new cells are formed every day and they replace the old worn out cells. This process is carried out by the spleen and it is cleared and controlled by the lymph glands. due to negligence only, slowly but steadily, there is a malignant growth in the body, which is not easily noticed.

- When Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are afflicted (or 4th, 8th, 12th houses) are afflicted, blood cancer occurs. Moon should also be afflicted.
