📚 WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT

This work restores ancient astrological symbolism by linking the human body to the universe's Grand Man structure. Dr. Carey maps Dr. Schuessler's biochemical cell salts directly to physical anatomy in the first section. In the second section, Inez Perry draws from masonic texts, the Kabbalah, Biblical references, and philosophical traditions to explain how the twelve sign types interact with mineral remedies. The text provides a basic framework for using cell salts as an at-home first aid kit based on zodiac placements.

Fun Fact
This unique text brilliantly marries the ancient wisdom of astrology with the subtle science of homeopathy. It excels at providing a clear, accessible framework for connecting zodiacal archetypes to specific biochemical remedies, offering practical insights for self-care.

However, for anyone curious about personalized wellness through an esoteric lens, it stands as an invaluable, thought-provoking guide in the field of mind-body-spirit healing.

📝 Description: The Zodiac and the Salts of Salvation: Homeopathic Remedies for the Sign Types

George Washington presents an exploration of astrology and homeopathy rooted in the biochemical cell salt system of Dr. Schuessler. The volume combines insights from Dr. Carey and Inez Perry to examine how planetary influences and natal positions correspond to bodily needs. Part I links specific physical body parts to cell salts, offering examples such as kali phosphate to soothe an Aries temper or kali sulphate to assist Virgo digestion. Part II expands on sun sign symbolism, connecting the twelve sign types to Biblical stories, the Kabbalah, masonic texts, and both eastern and western philosophy. Carey and Perry analyze astrology through the anatomy of the Grand Man, showing how the physical human form reflects cosmic symbolism. This Weiser Books paperback organizes its material across two distinct sections to help readers connect astrological charts, including the Moon, ascendant, and Saturn, to homeopathic first aid. It brings back ancient symbolic knowledge that was once widely understood by astrologers. The text suits students of astrological healing, mysticism, and basic homeopathy who want to study the connection between mineral balance and natal signs. It does not suit anyone looking for a modern medical diagnosis, as the text explicitly directs readers to see a doctor for medical needs.

Esoterica Books editorial team
Occult literature desk
Washington presents a compelling synthesis of homeopathy and astrology, building on earlier work by Carey and Perry. The book is well-structured, offering practical examples that make abstract concepts accessible. However, readers skeptical of alternative medicine or those who view astrology as purely symbolic rather than physiological may find the premise unconvincing. It is not suitable for individuals seeking rigorous scientific validation of homeopathic principles. Instead, it appeals to those already open to esoteric health practices. The integration of multiple astrological placements adds depth, making it a valuable resource for serious students of both disciplines who wish to explore personalized wellness strategies.
