Almonds have all the micronutrients that are required for serotonin production.

It is also called the food of the gods according to some cultures. Almonds are related to Jupiter as they have good fats and cholesterol. Serotonin key component is 5hydroxytriptamine which is a precursor of serotonin. 5 is significator of mercury.mercury and Jupiter are related as it is a hindu legend that mercury was born from the union of jupiters wife tara with that of moons ruler shiva. Half the component of Serotonin is also secreted by the pineal gland which is also called the ajna chakra or the inner eye . pineal gland has high spiritual importance. Social effect of serotonin Research on animals showed that serotonin less in superior animals causes them to be less afraid of subordinates and serotonin more in subordinates causes them to be less afraid of superioirs. In an animal pack there are pack leaders for eg wolf pack the wolf leader takes all the important decisions. In astrology there are 9 planets. If we consider the group of these planets to be a pack then the natural superiors based on physical size will be the gas giants namely Jupiter and Saturn and sun and the natural subordinates based on physical size will be mars moon and mercury. So the level of serotonin in the natives ruled by these planets should have the same effect as it does on the animals. For eg Sunsign western Ruling planet Serotonin more in the Effect on relationship astrology fat natives or the ones with subordinates who have high carbohydrate, fatty dietor those who take special nutrition like almonds Leo Sun Yes Afraid Capricorn Saturn Yes Afraid Sagitarius Jupiter Yes Afraid Sunsign western Ruling planet Serotonin more in the Effect on relationship astrology fat natives or the ones with superior who have high carbohydrate, fatty dietor those who take special nutrition like almonds Aries Mars Unafraid Cancer Moon unafraid These attributes are however affected by seasonal variations Now i will come to why i think serotonin is the close cousin of the mythical amrit or somras which was churned out of the samudra manthan done by asuras and devas. First of all almonds which have all the components to produce serotonin are called the food of the gods in some cultures. Also too much serotonin causes emotional imbalance in superioirs.for e g indra dev who is the significator of Jupiter is said to have become unstable and done wrong things when he took too much somras. Similarly serotonin is chiefly responsible for controlling our response to impulses. And Jupiter under the rulership of indra punishes the wrongdoer for eg someone who drinks too much alcholhol or takes too much non veg food by making them impulsive. Also vajra or lightening bolt which is the weapon of indra signifies lightening strike. Hence lightening is also an electrical impulse and can be used to artistically represent impulse. Eg a bolt of lightening represent human impulse. Now the brain communicates with the rest of the body using electrical impulses so we can say those electrical impulses are related to Jupiter . however think that those electrical impulses are more related to rahu Uranus which is called retrograde Saturn or the higher octave of mercury. Now

mercury and Jupiter are related see prior discussion on origin of mercury. Also Saturn and mercury are related as Saturn is the exact opposite of Jupiter and they each change what the other creates or destroys. Serotonin is also related to reaction time which is the reaction of a person to an impulse.
