ASTROLOGY IN MEDICINE

About the book:-The main factors in Astrology are three:- the signs of the Zodiac, the Seven Planets, and the Houses of Heaven. In Medical Astrology there is yet another factor, which is equally important and without which medical Astrology cannot be understood. This factor consists of the four elementary Qualities, Heat, Cold, Dryness and Moisture; which correspond with the four elements, Fire, Earth, Air and Water; with the four humours, Yellow bile, Black Bile, Blood and Phlegm; and with many other things. Since there are Twelve signs of the Zodiac, Seven Planets, and twelve Houses of Heaven, It will be casily seen that the merely numerical combinations of any one of these with the others are indefinitely multitudinous; and when it is known that each may be combined with the others in many different ways the complications become too great for the human intellect to follow.
