This review is from: Casenotes of a Medical Astrologer (Paperback)
This book is written by an astrologer, who is also physician. This is exceptional. Exceptional is also the fact that the author has tested some of the rules of traditional astrology (regarding for instance surgical operations) and have found them inaccurate (at least for our present practices of medicine). The writer give also many examples of illnesses observed in his daily practice.
However, this is a book which collects detailed cases and attempts to synthesize a life of observations. Don't expect to be able to become a medical astrologer with its content, the systematic aspects are still too scarce to settle a firm diagnostic. In that aspect, the "modern" medical astrology is still in infancy. The traditional one (mainly the Culpeper system) refers too much to the medicine of Avicenne and Galien to be fully understood and mastered by the average astrologer. For traditional medical astrology, the best reference is the masterpiece of Tobyn Graeme, astrologer and herbalist, "Culpeper medicine", highly recommended. But, dear reader, don't be surprised or upset: even in the Antiquity and european Middle Age, to be both an expert astrologer and a gifted physician was rather rare...
