Leo, the Sun, and the Heart: While Leo is commonly associated with ruling the heart, it's actually the Sun that rules this organ. If Leo is afflicted in a chart, it can weaken the Sun, as the Sun derives its strength from its Mulatrikona sign, Leo. This weakness in the Sun can then manifest as a proneness to heart problems in the individual.
Libra, Venus, and the Kidneys: Libra does not rule the kidneys, but it can influence them. This is because Venus, the ruler of the kidneys, has its Mulatrikona sign in Libra. If Libra is afflicted, Venus is weakened, which can lead to kidney problems.

Virgo, Mercury, and Disease: Any planet in Virgo is more likely to suffer from disease. This is because Virgo is associated with the intestines, which are prone to sluggishness and are considered the starting point of many diseases in Ayurveda and natural health practices.

Jupiter, the Brain, and the Pancreas: Jupiter rules the organ of the brain and the pancreas. It also rules the fat in the body and the sense of hearing. If Jupiter is afflicted, it doesn't necessarily mean all these body parts will be affected. The specific affliction would depend on the sign and house placement of Jupiter. For example, if Jupiter is afflicted in Aries, the brain might be affected, while an affliction in Leo might affect the pancreas.
