Whenever I start a diet to lose weight or limit my eating, I get into a state of extreme stress and struggle.
I don't think about solutions, but about problems, and it's as if there is a negative karma in my soul about weight and food. Material solutions no longer help and I need a spiritual solution.
Can you recommend an effective weight loss based freeing the soul/karma-breaking work?
Yes, there could be karma here. Also understand that restriction of food does represent a form of stress, like Saturn, on the body. The eating of food stimulates many aspects of the soul, including the Sun (creation of fuel and happiness), Moon (nourishment and calming of body), and Venus (pleasure), so a harsh or sudden restriction of this can be hard to implement without trouble.
It is also important to realize, regarding weight loss, that this is not just about restriction of food intake, but about the removal of fat debris (called "phlegm" in traditional chinese medicine). This requires energy to do, as it is an accumulation of a pathogenic substance that needs processing.
People normally lose weight on diets because the lowered intake of food makes it easier for the stomach/spleen to process any phelgm, as well as avoid the generation of new phlegm from excessively heavy substances. There is also the interplay of inflammation, which aggravates any phlegm conditions and makes it harder to remove. You should talk to a TCM doctor about this.
In regards to the spiritual side of things, this is why people with more yang energy are naturally thinner and denser, as the energy of the Sun and Mars help maintain a healthy metabolism. Although discipline is also needed, you should make use of the energies of the Sun in order to boost your vitality, which will make this process way easier for you.
The Sun is in Sagittarius and can be used for a Sun Square for the purpose of increased vitality and metabolic health. The waxing moon in Aries would also be fine for this.
Additionally, make sure you are doing some form of physical exercise or yoga, and I would also recommend you consult with a TCM doctor regarding the rest of your health and other lifestyle choices, like diet.
