About this ebook

[I]f we postulate an example, say Mars in Aries, we may readily deduce this much of the person in whose horoscope it occurs: Highly excitable temperament; overactivity of brain; liability to brain fever. Or let us suppose Uranus in Cancer, then cramp in stomach would be a judgment requiring few moments' decision. -from "Basic Elements" The Egyptians and Greeks of old understood the secrets of medical diagnosis and treatment via the stars, the author reminds us, but much knowledge has been lost to time. Reconstructing this ancient lore and presenting it for modern use, this 19th-century work explains which sun signs rules which part of the human body, how the planets affect health and temperament, how the stars align to produce illness, and more. Dating from before the discovery of Pluto, this historical oddity will intrigue astrology buffs and medical students and practitioners. British astrologer HEINRICH DATH (b. 1872) was a contributor to The Theosophical Review and wrote (with H. S. Green) "The Asteroids: A Research Paper for Astrology Students."
