“You can trace every sickness, every disease, every ailment to a mineral deficiency” – Dr. Linus Pauling
Medical Astrology
Astrology was once considered indispensable in medicine. The so-called ‘father of modern medicine”, the immensely influential early Greek physician Hippocrates of Kos (c. 460-c. 370 BC) was in many respects ahead of his times but was still a physician of his times, and regarded a detailed knowledge of astrology as essential to a physician’s repertoire of knowledge.

Medical astrology was known as iatromathematics and was based on associating parts of the body, as well as diseases and drugs, with the twelve signs of the zodiac.

These ideas were not only part of the mainstream for many centuries; they were the mainstream, just as astrologers were usually also astronomers and mathematicians. These ideas survive to this day, though they are no longer taught in mainstream medicine, and astrology still plays a role in enduring aspects and methodologies of complementary medicine, including homeopathy and the use of inorganic tissue salts, also known as cell salts, as supplements in support of blood health.
The human body contains twelve essential mineral salts. A correct balance of these is necessary for normal cell function and for maintaining health in the body. Cell Salts (also known as mineral or tissue salts) are micro-doses of the 12 most common inorganic salts in your body that help regulate important functions.
They come in various well-known brands, readily available to obtain online, are perfectly safe to take on their own or in combination with prescribed medicines and are usually used in the 6X potency to promote rapid and easy assimilation by the body.

Cell Salt Therapy was closely studied in the early 20th century when practitioners noticed a connection between the birth month and the ailments most commonly suffered by their patients and connected these ailments with deficiencies of the body’s natural cell salts.
The Zodiac and the Salts of Salvation
Most of the modern understanding of the use of cell salts in line with astrology is based on the work of American physician Dr. George W. Carey (1845-1924).
He and his partner, astrologer Eudora Inez Perry co-wrote a book illustrating the relationship between the 12 tissue salts and the 12 astrological signs.
This has to be one of my favorite book titles ever. It is so marvelously eccentric and is dismissed by its detractors as fodder for ‘New Age enthusiasts’, whoever they are, but it is underpinned by a level of general knowledge and erudition rarely encountered today; not to mention an in-depth acquaintance with the work of biochemist Wilhelm Heinrich Schussler, and Gray’s Anatomy; this from a man who was self-schooled and who traveled in a covered wagon for much of his childhood.
