Health and the Zodiac
as published by Aussie Horoscopes
Doctors go back to Astrology for the very
roots of their professional knowledge. Hippocartes who has been named "The Father of
Medicine" lived about 2,500 years ago. He has been quoted as saying, "A
physician cannot safely administer medicine unless he be acquainted with the first
principles of Astrology".
Some physicians today still use a
Decumbiture chart, which is a horoscope cast for the onset of the illness. It symbolises
the patient and his disease, its development, its times of crisis and its cure. Nicholas
Culpeper was the master of the decumbiture approach, and used it very well in the 17th
century.
Traditionally astrology was used to
diagnose disease through the zodiac-planets-body link. Treatment was given through herbal
remedies, determined from the theory of correspondences and the doctrine of sympathy or
antipathy. For example, by sympathy, a Venus ruled herb such as Lady’s Mantle would
be used for gynaecological problems. By antipathy, a warm Sun herb, such as St.
John’s wort would dispel a cold Saturn depression.
The fact that a Zodiacal sign may hint at a
bodily weakness, or that your personal horoscope points out the potential of a physical
ailment does not mean that this will physically eventuate. It could be that you show an
avid interest in that part of the body (ie. a Taurean opera star cares for his throat, or
a Cancerian model watches her diet excessively) or that there may even be an inherited
tendency towards a particular disease. (ie. heart disease)
