NERVOUS BREAKDOWN

Birth-chart constants: Mercury afflicted and an upper-octave planet prominent and afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mercury and an aspect involving an upper-octave planet at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: The neurosis leading to a nervous breakdown may be promoted by fatigue, under nutrition or a toxic condition, in which case these conditions should be remedied. Or it may be entirely due to psychoneurosis, in which the mental condition alone is responsible. But in either case, to assist nervous stability, the diet should contain abundant vitamin B-1, vitamin D and calcium. And in either case the chief effort should be to reconcile the individual to events and environment, and to bring about a harmonious readjustment of his mental factors. Becoming familiar with Course III, Spiritual Alchemy, is helpful to some. The patient should be instructed as to the thoughts he should cultivate to displace those responsible for the difficulty, and magnetic passes should be employed to replenish his electromagnetic forces. The treatment at the fifth station (Chapter 5, Serial Lesson 201) is especially important. Jupiter planetary energy should be applied to the zone occupied by Mercury, and the energy of their planetary antidotes should be applied to the zones mapped by the planets involved in the heavy discordant aspect.

Example: Chart 7274. Female, April 5, 1912, 5:45 p.m. 78:50W. 40:14N. Mercury sextile Pluto and square Neptune and Uranus in angles. June 11, 1938, as progressed, with Asc. trine Pluto r, Neptune trine Venus r, Jupiter sesquisquare Mercury r, and Mars square Sun r, had nervous breakdown.

NERVOUSNESS

Birth-chart constants: Mercury or Uranus severely afflicted, especially by an upper-octave planet.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mercury or an upper-octave planet, especially an aspect involving Mercury and an upper-octave planet.

Stellar Treatment: Two things are needed; stabilizing the nerves and harmonizing the mental factors. Mercury and the upper-octave planets deplete the supply of parathyrin and make the nerves unduly sensitive. To strengthen the parathyroid glands the diet should contain calcium, vitamin B-1 and vitamin D. The zone occupied by the responsible upper-octave planet should receive proper planetary energy antidote, and the patient should be educated relative to proper thinking. Charging the patient with both solar electromagnetic energy and lunar electromagnetic energy gives the nerves needed energy and permits them to relax. The thought treatment should have for its object the establishment of a more peaceful and harmonious state of mind and nerves. Properly applied suggestion is a great aid in all nervous troubles.

Example: Chart 2056. Female, May 8, 1858, 8:00 a.m. 120:45W. 39:30N. Mercury conjunction Uranus and both opposition Mars. During February 1920, as progressed, with Mercury conjunction Sun p and semisquare Uranus p, and Sun semisquare Uranus p, was in a severely nervous state.

NEURALGIA

Birth-chart constants: Mercury or Uranus severely afflicted.

Progressed constants: An affliction involving Mercury or Uranus, or an aspect involving Mercury or Uranus at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: Mental activities and especially mental strains and discords affect the parathyroid glands, diminishing their secretion and permitting chemical imbalance, chiefly due to improper assimilation of calcium. They also exhaust the nerve currents which, trying to meet the demands, become congested in certain areas to the depletion of other areas. As the areas of congestion and depletion shift, the neuralgia may also shift from one part of the body to another. The diet should contain ample calcium, vitamin B-1 and vitamin D, the vitality should be built up so that there will be more electromagnetic energy for the nerves, and strains should be lessened on the nervous system. As there is frequently over mental activity, interests which require physical activity and little thought, especially of a recreational nature, are valuable. The zone occupied by the afflicted Mercury or Uranus should be given Jupiter planetary energy. The chief thing needed is to reeducate the individual to a more poised and less discordant method of thinking.

Example: Chart 2055. Female, December 9, 1896, 9:10 p.m. 80:45W. 40N. Mercury opposition Mars and Neptune, Uranus square Moon. November 24, 1933, as progressed, with Mercury semisquare Mercury r, Sun sextile Uranus r, and Mars conjunction M.C. p and Pluto p, suffered severe attack of facial neuralgia.

NEURASTHENIA

Birth-chart constants: Mercury or Uranus severely afflicted.

Progressed constants: A progressed aspect involving Mercury or Uranus at the same time there are severe rallying forces, especially involving Saturn, Neptune or Pluto.

Stellar Treatment: The significant factor in neurasthenia is the poverty of mental and physical vigor and the incapacity for effort. Overwork or sexual excess may be contributing factors, or there may be little reserve of nervous energy. But the chief difficulty is mental. The general health should be built up, and the treatment should be that given for nervous breakdown. There is a mental factor which is in conflict with other mental factors and which discourages and opposes effort. This factor must be discovered and reconciled with the other mental factors, and the electromagnetic energy of the individual increased.

Example: Chart 777. Male, October 31, 1858, 1:00 a.m. 8E. 51:30N. Mercury opposition Pluto, Uranus square Asc. and Moon. In March 1925, as progressed, with Sun sesquisquare Uranus p, Mercury inconjunct Uranus r, and Asc. sesquisquare Mars p, developed neurasthenia following a severe financial loss.

NEURITIS

Birth-chart constants: Uranus or Mercury afflicted by Mars.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars at the same time there is an aspect, usually an affliction, involving Mercury or Uranus.

Stellar Treatment: In neuritis the Mars thought cells exhaust the adrenalin and cortin supply and the nerves become not merely sensitive due to parathyrin depletion, but actually inflamed. Calcium, vitamin B-1 and vitamin D should be included abundantly in the diet, and Jupiter planetary energy should be applied to the zone occupied by afflicted Mercury or Uranus. Often there is a toxic condition of the blood stream, therefore the diet should be such as to alkalize it. Moon planetary energy should be applied to the zone occupied by Mars, and the region of pain should be treated with lunar electromagnetic energy. A cultivation of domestic thoughts in harmonious association with any aggressive thoughts is advantageous, and the thought treatment of the solar plexus should have for its end the quieting of overstimulation of mind and nerves through the application of soothing mental suggestion.

Example: Chart 297. Male, February 19, 1861, 4:00 a.m. 91:15W. 32:48N. Mars semisquare Mercury and Moon. On May 9, 1928, as progressed, with Mars square Mercury r and conjunction Moon r, developed neuritis.

NEURODERMATITIS

Birth-chart constants: An upper-octave planet prominent and afflicted and Mercury afflicted by an upper-octave planet.

Progressed constants: Mercury involved in an aspect with an upper-octave planet, an aspect involving Mars, and an affliction involving Venus.

Stellar Treatment: The diet should contain ample calcium, vitamin B-1 and vitamin D to give the parathyroid glands power to restore the chemical balance which is back of the hypersensitivity of the nerves. And as it is the progressed Venus affliction which causes the hypersensitivity to affect the skin, it should also contain vitamin A, vitamin E, iodine and copper. The thinking should be poised, calm and harmonious. Jupiter planetary energy should be applied to the zone occupied by Mercury, Saturn planetary energy should be applied to the zone occupied by Venus, and the planetary energy of its antidote should be applied to the zone occupied by the upper-octave planet. Moon planetary energy should be applied to the zone occupied by Mars, and lunar electromagnetic energy should be used to soothe the irritation of the skin.

Example: Chart 7262A. Male, March 5, 1911, 4:00 a.m. 87:37W. 41:50N. Mars conjunction Uranus and opposition Neptune, Mercury sesquisquare Neptune. December 25, 1939, as progressed, with Mercury sextile Pluto r, Venus opposition Jupiter p, and Mars sextile M.C. p, developed neurodermatitis.

OBESITY

Birth-chart constants: Jupiter or the Moon, often both, prominent and afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Jupiter or to the Moon.

Stellar Treatment: When the insulin supply, which is ruled by Jupiter, is abundant, such fats as find their way into the blood stream are quickly stored. Unless thyroxin and adrenalin are as abundant in proportion, this stored fat is not called upon as fuel, but continues to be stored. The thymus gland, under direct influence of the Moon, takes an important part in nutrition. The lymph cells in particular, take part in the absorption of fats by the intestines, and these lymph cells are ruled by the Moon. Diet, of course, is important in the reduction of fat. The zone mapped by Jupiter should be given Mercury planetary energy. And in addition the zone mapped by the Sun should be stimulated with Sun planetary energy to increase the activity of the thyroid gland, as thyroxin enables the body to burn its excess fuel. When exercise is taken to consume excess fat, it should be remembered that the diet should contain some starch or sugar, as fat can only burn in the presence of sugar. Absolute elimination of starch and sugar from the diet, while engaging in strenuous exercise, causes the fat to smolder and fill the blood with fatty acids.

Example: Chart 6233. Female, January 23, 1917, 9:30 p.m. 90:04W. 29:57N. Jupiter square Mercury and Sun, Moon conjunction Mars and Uranus. She has been excessively fat since soon after birth.

OBSESSION

Birth-chart constants: Neptune, Pluto or the Moon prominent and severely afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect to Pluto at the same time there are severe rallying forces, especially if they involve Neptune or the Moon.

Stellar Treatment: The patient must be aided to avoid thinking about the obsessing thought or entity. The planetary energy which is the antidote of the responsible thought cells should be given the zone mapped by their planet. Solar electromagnetic energy may be used to build up a more positive attitude. One of the best things is for the patient to engage in some work, which in no way is associated with the obsession, that so completely absorbs the time, attention and energies that there is no opportunity to think about the obsession. The thought treatment is important in that the effort should be made to break the vibratory connection between the patient and the obsession. Judicially applied suggestion may be made of assistance in this. If conversation can be established with an obsessing entity, it may be reasoned with and persuaded, or forced, to leave.

Example: Chart 1555. Female, April 20, 1868 noon. 158W. 12:18N. Moon, Mercury, Mars and Neptune conjunction, Pluto angular and semisquare Jupiter. In March 1883, as progressed, with M.C. and Sun conjunction Pluto p, Asc. square Pluto p, and Venus semisquare Pluto p, became seriously obsessed.

OPERATION

Birth-chart constants: A prominent Mars, especially if afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars, an aspect involving the ruler of the first house, an aspect involving the ruler of the sixth house, and an aspect involving the ruler of the twelfth house.

Stellar Treatment: This subject is treated in detail, in connection with the analysis of the charts of 100 people at the time they had an operation, in the reference book, BODY DISEASE AND ITS STELLAR TREATMENT. At the time of operation, and immediately afterward, electromagnetic energy should be applied to the region operated on to hasten the healing process. In choosing the time for the operation, aside from the progressed aspects, which usually cannot be controlled, the Moon as shown in the ephemeris on that day should not be within two signs of the part of the body operated on. The best time is when the Moon is two or three signs past the region of the body operated on, so it will have to travel nine or ten signs to get back to that region.

Example: Chart 6116. Male, July 4, 1911, 3:00 a.m. 88W. 43N. Mars opposition Moon. In September 1934, as progressed, with Mars, ruler of sixth, semisquare Asc. r, Venus trine Saturn r, ruler of twelfth, and Pluto inconjunct Uranus r (appendix), had appendix removed.

OSTEOMYELITIS

Birth-chart constants: Mars prominent and Saturn heavily afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars and an aspect involving Saturn, at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: Unless immediate surgical treatment is given the person, usually a child, may die in a day or two from blood poisoning. The surgeon bores into the bone and gives free exit to the poisonous discharges. Venus planetary energy should be given to the zone occupied by Saturn, and Moon planetary energy should be given to the zone occupied by Mars. The diet should be such as to alkalize the blood stream, and contain plenty of variety in mineral salts, vitamins and proteins. Magnetic passes may be used to increase the vitality.

Example: Chart 7275. Male, April 26, 1921, 00:15 p.m. 93:16W. 44:59N. Mars in an angle, Saturn opposition Uranus, square Moon, sesquisquare Sun. January 27, 1933, as progressed, with Sun trine Saturn p, Pluto parallel Mars p, and Venus semisquare Uranus p, was operated on for osteomyelitis. Lost one bone in leg below knee.

OVARY TROUBLE

Birth-chart constants: Venus afflicted.

Progressed constants: An affliction involving Venus, or an aspect involving Venus at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: Vitamin E and vitamin A are absolutely essential if the ovaries are to perform their functions normally. And as there is a close association between the ovaries and the thyroid gland, the diet should contain ample iodine. Wheat germ meal is an excellent source of vitamin E. Ovary trouble is almost always associated with emotional disturbances. The individual should be instructed in thinking to correct these, and the thought treatment should assist in this. The zone occupied by Venus should be given Saturn planetary energy, and if under vitalized should be given Sun planetary energy. According to whether they are over stimulated or under vitalized the region of the ovaries should be charged with lunar electromagnetic energy or with solar electromagnetic energy. The region of the thyroid gland should also be treated with electromagnetic energy.

Example: Chart 517. Female, March 10, 1895, 10:00 p.m. 90W. 42N. Venus semisquare Mercury. In May 1925, as progressed, with Asc. sesquisquare Venus r, Mars sesquisquare Asc. r in Scorpio, and Saturn sesquisquare Sun r, her ovaries were surgically removed.

PARALYSIS

Birth-chart constants: Uranus prominent, and usually afflicted.

Progressed constants: An affliction involving Uranus, or an aspect involving Uranus at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: The thought cells mapped by Uranus are involved in all kinds of paralysis, such as spastic, infantile, palsy, or due to cerebral hemorrhage. Other than Uranus the constants and the treatment depend upon whether it is merely functional or whether some section of the nervous system is affected, what section is affected, and whether it is affected by a pressure, by inflammation, by syphilitic infection, by a tumor, or by an injury. There is even a type of paralysis which arises from disease of the muscles. Magnetic passes, suggestion, thought education and thought treatment are commonly advantageous. The zone occupied by Uranus should be given Jupiter planetary energy, and the zones occupied by the planets mapping the other responsible thought cells should be given the planetary energy of their antidotes.

Example: Chart 19. Male, December 28, 1856, 11:30 p.m. 79W. 38N. Uranus square Mars and Venus. September 26, 1919, as progressed, with Mars semisquare Uranus r, Saturn opposition Sun r. Asc. semisquare Sun r, and Mercury sesquisquare Asc. r, became partially paralyzed.

PELLAGRA

Birth-chart constants: Afflictions from Saturn.

Progressed constants: An affliction involving Saturn, Neptune or Pluto, usually involving Saturn.

Stellar Treatment: This is a typical Saturn disease caused by diet deficiency. To overcome it, there must be thiamin (vitamin B-1) and niacin (vitamin P-P) abundantly in the diet. Both of these are contained in vitamin B complex. The food should have a high-caloric and a high-protein value, and contain variety in mineral salts, vitamins and proteins, as indicated by the Saturn affliction. The zone occupied by Saturn should receive Venus planetary energy, the discordant rallying forces should receive the planetary energy of their antidote, and solar electromagnetic energy may be applied to build up vitality. The prime necessity, however, is a proper diet.

Example: Chart 300. Female, May 19, 1883, 8:40 a.m. 83:53W. 43:37N. Saturn conjunction Sun. In June 1932, as progressed, with Sun semisquare Saturn r and Pluto r, and Mars conjunction Sun r, suffered from pellagra.

PERITONITIS

Birth-chart constants: An afflicted planet in Virgo, or Mercury severely afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect, usually an affliction, involving Mars, at the same time there is an aspect involving the planet in Virgo or Mercury.

Stellar Treatment: The individual should be educated to a less irritating kind of thinking, and the diet should contain calcium, vitamin B-1 and vitamin D. Under the Mars influence the adrenalin and cortin supply are exhausted. Therefore the diet should also tend to alkalize the blood stream to avoid possible infection of the peritonium. The zone occupied by the planet in Virgo, or by the afflicted Mercury, should be given the planetary energy of its antidote. The zone occupied by Mars should be given Moon planetary energy, and the locality of the difficulty should be treated with lunar electromagnetic energy. If the inflammation is acute, or there is infection, a competent doctor should administer penicillin.

Example: Chart 299. Male, September 18, 1899, 6:00 p.m. 75W. 40:45N. Sun, Mercury and Venus in Virgo square Saturn and opposition Asc. February 26, 1917, as progressed, with Mars sesquisquare Asc. r, and semisquare Sun r in Virgo, died of peritonitis.

PHLEBITIS

Birth-chart constants: Venus prominent and afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Venus and an aspect involving Mars at the same time there are serious rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: The inflammation of the vein may be simple or septic. It is marked by pain and tenderness in the line of the affected vein, which becomes firm and cord-like. It is more likely to occur in veins that have been varicose for some time. The chief danger is that it may be followed by thrombosis. Treatment with lunar electromagnetic energy may be used to relieve the pain. The diet should contain vitamin A, vitamin E, iodine, copper, vitamin B-1, vitamin C, iron, be low in protein content, but have variety of proteins. The zone occupied by Venus should be given Saturn planetary energy, and the zone occupied by Mars should be given Moon planetary energy. The individual should rest, and should reeducate his thoughts to avoid emotional disturbance.

Example: Chart 7276. Female, October 3, 1884, 2:00 a.m. 2:27W. 54:59N. Venus conjunction Asc., square Neptune and semisquare Sun. September 11, 1907, as progressed, with Sun parallel Venus r, Saturn sextile Venus r, Mars sextile Uranus p, and Asc. semisquare Mercury r, developed phlebitis in one of her legs.

PITUITARY DEFICIENCY (POSTERIOR)

Birth-chart constants: A prominent and heavily afflicted Moon.

Progressed constants: An affliction to the birth-chart Moon.

Stellar Treatment: The back pituitary gland produces a secretion which causes contraction of all the arteries except those of the kidneys, and of the plain muscles of the bowels, the bladder, the womb, and other organs. It has something to do with the metabolism of the carbohydrates. Its deficiency leads to obesity. Its deficiency is treated by the medical profession with injections of pituitrin and other hormones. The diet should contain ample vitamin B-2, and the water-salt balance should be regulated. Pituitrin secretion should be strengthened by electromagnetic energy directed to the gland.

Example: Chart 7277. Female, June 13, 1902, 5:00 a.m. CST. 83:03W. 42:20N. Moon in an angle, square Sun. In June 1908, as progressed, with Sun square Moon r, and Moon opposition Mars p, developed back pituitary deficiency following a fall.

PLEURISY

Birth-chart constants: Mars afflicted and an affliction in Gemini or Mercury heavily afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mercury or the planet in Gemini, and an aspect involving Mars, at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: This disease occurs in two forms; the acute type and the chronic type. The acute type is called dry pleurisy because there is no exudation. In the chronic form there is an accumulation of a large amount of fluid in the chest upon the affected side, which may be simply serum or contain pus. Prominent negative planets, especially the Moon, seem to favor the accumulation of such fluid. Diet, thought treatment and the educational factor should have for end the restoration of the normal activity of the parathyroid glands and the strengthening of the adrenal glands. Sufficient parathyrin tends to remedy the hypersensitivity of the membrane which lines the chest walls and covers the lungs, and sufficient adrenalin and cortin tends to neutralize the toxins in the blood which inflame this membrane and thus give rise to pleurisy. The zone occupied by Mercury or the planet in Gemini should be given the proper planetary energy antidote. Lunar electromagnetic energy may be used to reduce the pain.

Example: Chart 301. Male, January 14, 1878 8:34 a.m. 79:45W. 42:08N. Sun and Mercury square Mars, Venus semisquare Mars. March 20, 1924, as progressed, with Mercury semisextile Sun r, Sun parallel Mars r, and Venus opposition Uranus p, developed pleurisy which was serious for six weeks.

PNEUMONIA

Birth-chart constants: Sun afflicted by Saturn, Neptune, Pluto or the Moon.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars, a discordant aspect involving Saturn, Neptune, Pluto, Venus or birth-chart Moon, and a progressed aspect involving Mercury or a planet in Gemini.

Stellar Treatment: The analysis of 100 charts progressed to the time this disease developed, and detailed information relative to its stellar treatment are given in the reference book, BODY DISEASE AND ITS STELLAR TREATMENT. Everything should be done to conserve and build up vital energy. The individual should be clothed in woolen garments and put to bed between blankets. There should be fresh air, but avoidance of draft, and the room kept at a temperature of 60° F. To conserve vitality he should be kept absolutely quiet and not permitted to get out of bed for any purpose. He should not be allowed to lie flat on his back, or in any position that will impede circulation through the lungs. Cold compresses on the head, and lunar electromagnetic energy, may be used to reduce the fever. An enema of water which is quite warm may be used to cleanse the bowels. Food requirements are indicated by the Sun and afflicted negative planets. The thyroid gland should be given solar electromagnetic energy, and zones occupied by the afflicted planets which are the constants of the disease should be given proper planetary antidotes.

Example: Chart 3197. May 9, 1860, 6:30 a.m. 3W. 56:40N. Sun conjunction Pluto and semisquare Neptune. On June 19, 1937, as progressed, with Venus opposition Mars p, Mercury sesquisquare Moon r, and M.C. semisextile Uranus r in Gemini, died of pneumonia.

back to top

POISONING

Birth-chart constants: A prominent and afflicted Neptune.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Neptune at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: The Neptune thought cells are involved not only when the poison taken internally is a corrosive, an irritant or a narcotic, but also when it is due to insect bite, snake bite or contact with poison ivy. If the poison has been swallowed, and is not a corrosive, first aid should be employed at once to empty the stomach. A tablespoonful of mustard, or two tablespoonsful of common salt in a glass of warm water should be given the patient. Then the back of the throat should be tickled to hasten the vomiting. When the vomiting begins, the patient should drink a large amount of tepid water to wash out the stomach. However, if the poison is a corrosive, such as the caustic alkalies, carbolic acid or creosote, an emetic should not be given, as the vomiting may cause perforation of the stomach. Instead, the irritation should be eased by giving milk, thin gruel, olive oil, or white of egg in water. Oil, however, should not be given in poisoning by cantharides or phosphorus, and water should be withheld in poisoning by oxalic acid or lysol. After the emergency treatment, Sun planetary energy should be applied to the zone occupied by Neptune, magnetic passes should be used to give the patient recuperative power, and the diet should be such as to give the blood stream an alkaline reaction to assist it neutralize the toxic condition.

Example: Chart 7278. Female, August 21, 1888, 12:12 a.m. 4:30E. 52:20N. Neptune in house of self-undoing (twelfth) conjunction Pluto and square Sun. December 9, 1934, as progressed, with Neptune sesquisquare Uranus p, Sun semisquare Sun r, and M.C. semisquare Pluto r, committed suicide by taking rat poison.

PROSTATE TROUBLE

Birth-chart constants: Mars or Pluto afflicted, or an afflicted planet in Scorpio.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars, Pluto or the planet in Scorpio at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: Treatment depends upon the nature of the affliction of the prostate gland. When it is inflamed, heat, such as a hip bath, may bring relief. The diet should contain vitamin A, vitamin B-1, vitamin C, iron, be low in protein but with ample variety of proteins. Stimulating and irritating foods should be avoided, and they should be such as to give an alkaline reaction to the blood stream to prevent irritation of the prostate gland. Lunar electromagnetic energy should be applied to the region of the prostate gland, the zone occupied by the afflicted Mars or Pluto should be given Moon planetary energy, and if there is a planet in Scorpio (ruling the prostate gland) the planetary energy of its antidote should be applied to this zone. In some prostate trouble massaging the gland through the rectum gives good results. Cancer of the prostate gland, when discovered early, is often successfully treated with female sex hormones.

Example: Chart 7279. Male, May 24, 1862, 5:00 a.m. 84W. 41:54N. Sun square Mars, Venus semisquare Mars. In March 1909, as progressed, with Mars sextile Sun r, Venus semisextile Pluto r, and Sun square Venus r, developed inflammation of the prostate gland.

PSORIASIS

Birth-chart constants: An upper-octave planet, especially Neptune, prominent and afflicted and Venus afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving an upper-octave planet and a discordant aspect involving Venus.

Stellar Treatment: There is hypersensitivity due to improper functioning of the parathyroid glands. This should be corrected by calm, poised and harmonious thinking, and by a diet containing ample calcium, vitamin B-1, and vitamin D. The hypersensitivity manifests through the skin due to the activity of discordant Venus thought cells. Effort should be made to ascertain if there is anything in the environment to which the skin is sensitive. And the diet should contain vitamin A, iodine, copper, and vitamin E. For vitamin E wheat germ meal is recommended. The zone occupied by the upper-octave planet involved should be given the energy of its planetary antidote. The zone occupied by Venus should be given Saturn planetary energy. Suggestion and thought treatment should also be used to overcome the skin sensitivity.

Example: Chart 7280. Female, July 11, 1906, 7:00 p.m. 74W. 40:43N. Neptune conjunction Sun and Mars, Uranus square Moon. In July 1913, as progressed, with Mercury sesquisquare Uranus r, Venus semisquare Sun r, Mars semisextile Venus r, and Asc. opposition Mars r, developed psoriasis.

PYLORIC TROUBLE

Birth-chart constants: An afflicted planet in Virgo, or much less commonly a severely afflicted Mercury.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving the planet in Virgo, or Mercury, at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: Both the thoughts and the diet should have for aim restoration of chemical balance through normal parathyroid secretion, and the correction of digestive disturbances. The diet should contain calcium, vitamin B-1, and vitamin D. Worry and tension should be avoided. If Mercury is afflicted, the zone it occupies should be given Jupiter planetary energy. Any afflicted thought cells mapped by a planet in Virgo should receive the planetary energy of their antidote. Electromagnetic energy should be applied to the region where the stomach joins the small intestines to give this region vigor and vitality. The mental attitude of the patient is very important.

Example: Chart 302. Female, December 9, 1883, 9:00 p.m. LMT. 112:30W. 39N. Mercury square Uranus in Virgo. February 6, 1905, as progressed, with Mars conjunction Mars r, Venus opposition Jupiter r, Mercury trine Uranus r in Virgo, and M.C. trine Uranus r in Virgo, inflammation of the pylorus had advanced so far that an operation was performed changing the outlet of the stomach to the other side.

RHEUMATISM

Birth-chart constants: Mars and Saturn afflicted, especially if they afflict each other.

Progressed constants: An aspect, especially an affliction, involving either Saturn or Mars.

Stellar Treatment: Whether of the acute type or the chronic type, whether affecting the muscles or the joints, there is always a serious chemical imbalance present in which the adrenalin and cortin supply are insufficient to neutralize the acidity of the blood stream. Sometimes the difficulty is due to uric acid in the blood from the nuclei of meat. Diet deficiencies of the Saturn type are commonly a contributing cause. The diet should be that advocated for Saturn afflictions and Mars afflictions, excess of meat and acid producing foods being avoided. Exposure to wet and cold lowers the vitality, decreases the adrenalin and cortin supply, and enables the disease to develop. It should be avoided. The zone occupied by Mars should be given Moon planetary energy and the zone occupied by Saturn should be given Venus planetary energy. Solar electromagnetic energy should be used to warm and stimulate, and lunar electromagnetic energy may be used to reduce the inflammation.

Example: Chart 303. Female, May 22, 1903, 3:44 p.m. 94:30W. 35:25N. Saturn semisquare Uranus; Mars opposition Moon, square Uranus and sesquisquare Saturn. In October 1921, as progressed, with Mars square Neptune p, and Saturn semisquare Uranus p, developed rheumatism.

RHEUMATIC FEVER

Birth-chart constants: Mars and Saturn afflicted, especially if they afflict each other.

Progressed constants: An aspect, especially an affliction, involving either Saturn or Mars.

Stellar Treatment: In addition to the factors contributing to and present in rheumatism, there is an infection which enters the body by way of the nose or throat. In about half of those who suffer from this disease, even its lighter forms, there is inflammation of the lining of the heart—in which case the Sun or a planet in Leo is both a birth-chart and a progressed constant. In addition to the treatment indicated for rheumatism, the individual should be kept in bed and not be permitted to get out of it even though the disease appears slight. He should wear a flannel nightdress that opens in such a manner as to be easily removed when he sweats freely. Fever and pain may be reduced by lunar electromagnetic energy and cold compresses or ice pack. The medical profession uses salicylates. The joints should be covered with cotton wool. Attention should be paid to the state of the throat when the individual begins to get well. The joints usually recover, but the after effects on the heart are often serious.

Example: Chart 7291. Female, November 28, 1886, 11:00 a.m. CST. 97:28W. 31:03N. Saturn square Jupiter and sesquisquare Sun and Venus. Mars conjunction Moon and square Uranus. In June 1902, as progressed, with Mars opposition Saturn r, M.C. opposition Pluto r, Mercury opposition Pluto r, and Sun inconjunct Saturn r and semisextile Mars p, suffered from rheumatic fever.

RHINITIS

Birth-chart constants: An upper-octave planet prominent and Jupiter and Mars afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars, an aspect involving Jupiter, and an aspect involving an upper-octave planet.

Stellar Treatment: Chemical imbalance, due to lack of parathyrin, and an acid blood stream lead to the inflammation of the nasal membrane. In its common form there is acute catarrh. And in this form the Jupiter thought cells play a part; for they encourage diet habits which cause the blood stream to be over burdened with incompletely burned fuel. The diet should be that advocated for an afflicted Jupiter, and in addition contain ample calcium, vitamin B-1 and vitamin D. The liver should be energized with solar electromagnetic energy, and the Jupiter zone should receive Mercury planetary energy. Moon planetary energy should be given the zone occupied by Mars, and the planetary energy of its antidote should be applied to the zone occupied by the upper-octave planet. Tensions should be avoided, and the thoughts made more calm and harmonious.

Example: Chart 7282. Male, June 12, 1903, 10:20 a.m. 78:59W. 39:26N. Pluto and Uranus in angles, opposition each other; Jupiter square Sun, Pluto and Uranus; Mars square Neptune. March 1, 1944, as progressed, with Mars inconjunct Jupiter r and Uranus p, Neptune square Mars r, Saturn semisquare Uranus p, and Sun semisquare Venus p, developed rhinitis.

RICKETS

Birth-chart constants: An upper-octave planet prominent and Saturn afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving an upper-octave planet, and an aspect involving Saturn, at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: Rickets develop when there is insufficient calcium or phosphorus in the diet, or when, due to lack of vitamin D, these elements cannot be properly handled. Spinach eaten at the same meal with other calcium containing foods decreases the amount of calcium assimilated from them, as do cereals unless irradiated or eaten with lettuce, liver or eggs. The acid condition of the intestinal tract produced by drinking citrus fruit juice markedly increases the ability to assimilate calcium from foods. Calcium is obtained three times as readily from milk quickly boiled as from the slowly heated pasteurized milk, or as from dried milk. It is difficult to assimilate calcium from sweetened condensed milk, but evaporated milk and raw milk yield their calcium excellently. To handle the calcium and phosphorus, and build bone with them, there must be ample vitamin D. In addition to calcium and vitamin D, the food should contain plenty of variety of the mineral salts, vitamins and proteins. The zone occupied by Saturn should be given solar planetary energy.

Example: Chart 304. Female, December 27, 1929, 11:16 p.m. CST. 84:30W. 39N. Saturn conjunction Sun, and Uranus in an angle square Sun and Saturn. Starting in October 1930, as progressed, with Sun square Uranus r, and Saturn trine Neptune r, suffered a year and a half from rickets.

RINGWORM

Birth-chart constants: Mars and Venus somewhat afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars and an aspect involving Venus.

Stellar Treatment: Ringworm is due to the presence of parasitic fungi. The fungi are propagated by spores, and the variety of the infection depends upon the size of the spores and, when it occurs in a hairy situation, whether they are on the surface of the hair, within its substance, or both. The form that commonly occurs on children is ringworm of the body, which may come from ringworm of the head or from close contact with domestic animals suffering from ringworm. As the inner reddish patch on the skin heals it spreads at the edges. Doctors often paint the infected area with tincture of iodine for three or four days and then apply an antiseptic ointment. Clothing which contacts the diseased area must be carefully disinfected. In ringworm of the nail it is customary to remove the nail and kill the parasite by painting with tincture of iodine. Tincture of iodine is also used on ringworm of the scalp. Wherever it occurs, the parasite must be killed. Then healthy growth of skin and hair may be promoted by applying Saturn planetary energy to the zone occupied by Venus.

Example: Chart 7281. Female, January 10, 1943, 10:41 a.m. LMT. 118:15W. 34N. Mars square Moon, Venus semisquare Mars and Moon. In March 1945, as progressed, with Venus semisquare Mars p, and Mars semisextile Sun r, had ringworm.

SCABIES

Birth-chart constants: Mars and Venus somewhat afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars and an aspect involving Venus at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: Commonly known as itch, this contagious disease is due to a mite which burrows beneath the skin. A hot bath should be taken, and the whole body, except the head, should be lathered with soft soap. A stiff nail brush should be applied to the affected areas to open up the burrows. The body is then dried with a soft towel and all below the neck anointed with sulphur ointment, or if the skin is sensitive, with equal parts sulphur ointment and zinc ointment. Clean clothing should then be donned. This treatment should be repeated four nights in succession, and on the fifth a bath should be taken in ordinary soap and water, after which the body should be rubbed over with ordinary zinc ointment. Personal clothing and bed clothing should be thoroughly disinfected. After the mites have thus been killed and removed, Saturn planetary energy may be applied to the zone occupied by Venus to increase the vigor of the skin.

Example: Chart 7283. Male, June 24, 1917, 11:00 a.m. 97W. 36:45N. Mars square Moon, Venus semisquare Moon. In January 1938, as progressed, with Sun semisquare Mars r, and Jupiter semisquare Venus r, had scabies.

SCARLET FEVER

Birth-chart constants: Mars, Venus and Mercury either prominent or somewhat afflicted.

Progressed constants: An aspect involving Mars, an aspect involving Venus, and an aspect involving Mercury at the same time there are severe rallying forces.

Stellar Treatment: This is a highly contagious disease, the infection usually entering the body through the nose or mouth. The mouth, nose and throat should be kept very clean through the use of an antiseptic mouth wash used several times daily. Ice pack and lunar electromagnetic energy may be used to reduce the fever, which may be high. As in other infectious fevers, the blood stream should be kept alkaline to assist in neutralizing the toxins. Fruit and vegetable juices are recommended. Moon planetary energy should be given the zone occupied by Mars, Saturn planetary energy should be given the zone occupied by Venus, and Jupiter planetary energy should be given the zone occupied by Mercury. Careful nursing is important.

Example: Chart 7284. Female, November 17, 1937, 5:00 a.m. 118:20W. 34:05N. Mars square Venus and opposition Pluto, Mercury sextile Mars. In March 1947, as progressed, with Mars square Uranus r, Neptune semisquare Venus r, and Mercury semisquare Mars r, had scarlet fever.
