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

Rate this book
After digesting the material presented by Carey and Perry, readers will have a new understanding of basic homeopathic principles, as well as being able to tie various homeopathic remedies to the sun signs. Once this is understood, it is reasonable that the position of the Moon and ascendant in the natal chart and even the position of Saturn may well be indicators of homeopathic remedies that are needed by the physical body. For example, when an Aries is too quick to anger, perhaps a regular does of kali phosphate may even out the temper. Or when Virgo is beginning to feel digestive problems, kali sulphate may help balance out the minerals in the body. Nothing beats going to the doctor when needing a diagnosis/ however, knowing the basics of homeopathy can also be likened to keeping a first aid kit in the house. In Part I, Dr. Carey relates the parts of the body to the biochemical cellsalts (homeopathic remedies) that were espoused by Dr. Schuessler. Part II, by Inez Perry, enlarges upon the symbolism of the sun types and the basics about the homeopathic remedies. She discusses the twelve sign types in relation to Biblical symbolism, and also combines information from the Kabbalah, masonic texts, eastern and western philosophy, to trace the spiritual symbolism of the signs. She then shows how the twelve basic biochemical remedies work with the sign types. According to Carey and Perry, astrology deals with the body (anatomy) of the Grand Man (the universe), and by analogy, with the human body as it relates to astrological symbolism. The authors bring back to contemporary astrology students the ancient symbolism that was once common knowledge to astrologers.

This book speaks about diseases and astrological signs. Some folk may consider this information pseudo-science or outdated information. However if you decide to read this book remember when the release date and remember that times change. Keep an open mind!

Actually thoroughly enjoyed this book! Its written a bit repetitively & definitely have to pay attention to not miss details. It also utilizes a lot of medical terms but I enjoyed looking things up and making the connections necessary. I found it very insightful and I am knowledgeable in the subject to a degree already. Its a very interesting subject & very detailed. I recommend to anyone who enjoys history, medical science & zodiac/planetary themed stuff.

I was expecting more info on how Dr. Carey came to learn about the 12 cell salts and why he assigned each one specifically to its Zodiacal correspondence, but that really wasn’t discussed at all in this book.

I was really looking for a more practical understanding of this health system, but it was so overwhelmingly esoteric in nature that I wasn’t able to really walk away with a solid understanding of how or why these salts supposedly work at contributing to our health.

Maybe I’m too dense or simply went into this book with the wrong assumptions of what it’d be like but I think I’ll stick to the YT videos on this subject for now.
