Does Sun-sign influence an individual’s reaction to mental stress, reaction to moments like pandemic?
Yes, they do. Pisces are more emotional and sentimental than Sagittarius for example, so they will be struggling more with mental stress and anxiety than the archer who is adventurous and impulsive. At the same time, Pisces will be more comfortable staying at home during a lockdown than Sagittarius who will feel caged in.
Similarly Tauras, When faced with stress, take a little subtle approach. They might retreat back to their personal space, avoiding any social contact. And might prefer indulging in little household chores to release their stress.
Does a individual’s sun sign have a definite effect on his/her food choices?
Vedic astrology is quite specific on the correlation between the sun, moon and food choices of each sign.
Personally I have found that food choices have more to do with the elements rather than individual signs. Water signs seem to like comfort foods and wine, fire signs seem to prefer meat and beer, air signs love carbs and earth signs love to indulge in anything that makes them feel good.
It is best to go by each sign’s corresponding cell salt, if you do not have the entire chart.

- Taurus should eat diuretic foods and foods that are high in sodium sulfate.
- Gemini should eat foods high in potassium chloride and those that support the nervous system

- Leo should eat foods rich in magnesium phosphate.
