Pitta controls all metabolic processes. It is responsible for digestion, absorbing food in the intestines and regulating body heat, visual acuity and intellect. People with a dominant Pitta have an average figure, eat a lot, can normally tolerate all foods and move their bowels two or three times per day. They become easily irritated if their meal times are disrupted. They are of average build. Those with a dominant Pitta are good talkers, are good at structuring things, are neat and inventive as well as ambitious and decisive. If their Pitta becomes unbalanced, they are prone to wanting perfection, fits of rage, bad temperedness as well as skin rashes and inflammation.
Pitta types attract many admiring looks with their athletic build and charisma. The fiery Pitta endows them with lots of spirit and a great digestive system. Pitta types have huge potential and a high-performance capacity and often find themselves in positions of leadership. However (or perhaps precisely because of this) they need to take care of themselves.
Pitta types typically have blonde or red hair which tends to be fine or light and can turn grey early. Their skin generally benefits from good circulation, which is what gives Pitta types their rosy complexion. Other than that, their skin is often marked with freckles, is generally fair and therefore sensitive. Pitta types tend to perspire easily due to their high fire.
Pitta types tend to have athletic or wiry bodies and are generally of medium height. They often have distinctive facial features with a high forehead and glowing, sparkly eyes.
Pitta is responsible for digestion and metabolism. Pitta types therefore generally benefit from strong Agni.They like to eat large quantities and generally tolerate all kinds of food. The people around them are sometimes amazed by how soon after a meal they feel hungry again. On the other hand, they can become easily irritable if a meal is late or missed altogether. Set mealtimes are particularly important for this Ayurvedic type.
The most important sense for Pitta types is sight. Their bright eyes and keen look are often particularly striking.
Pitta-dominant people are, on the one hand, emotional and spirited and, on the other, highly organised, neat and well structured. They are both ambitious and decisive. In conversations they very quickly get to the point. Their precise way of speaking and charisma make Pitta types particularly good speakers. People with a pronounced Pitta dosha are extremely independent and also need plenty of freedom.
If Pitta gains the upper hand too often, the person’s love for order can translate into perfectionism and dogmatism. Typical signs of excess Pitta include impatience, irritability and outbursts of anger. In contrast to Vata-dominant people, the Pitta type finds it easy to fall asleep but wakes up more frequently during the night and may not be able to get back to sleep. Physical indications of a Pitta disruption include skin rashes and inflammation.
With their love of order and high aspirations, Pitta types have a tendency to ask too much of themselves. It is particularly important for them to keep an eye on their energy reserves and try to maintain a healthy balance.
