About the author
Marlene Houghton is the author of An Astrological Apothecary, published by Zambezi Publishing in editions dated 2000 and 2003. The book combines astrology with natural and herbal approaches to health, working from the premise that many readers are looking past purely pharmaceutical treatment toward gentler, more traditional methods aligned with a spiritual view of wellbeing. It sits within the catalogue's astrology category and is aimed at readers already interested in astrology who want to see it applied to questions of health and self-care rather than only to personality or forecasting. The book's approach is practical rather than theoretical, framed as a reference readers can return to for guidance rather than a narrative to read through once. With only this single title across two editions in the catalogue, Houghton's presence here is narrow but specific, aimed squarely at readers at the intersection of astrology and natural health practice.
