I really enjoyed this, Maria! Thanks for making clear connections and providing great resources. Fascinating material. Are you familiar with the work of Robert Moss? He teaches a modality called Active Dreaming. Here's a link to one of his blogs that may interest you:

This is an all-new concept to me and you are presenting it in a clear fashion. Astrology has escaped me- but it is never to early to start.

Maria, this is excellent. Whatever we think of the validity of this diagnostic/treatment system, it prevailed from earliest times to just a couple of hundred years ago--and still prevails, in parts of the world. It is also the basis for the therapeutic use of plants, the pharmacology of the day--much of which is being confirmed by current research. I'm looking forward to seeing how you develop this series. And I'd like to link to it in my Growing Green with the Zodiac series.

Have you seen this? As a longtim explorer of this subject, I have to say that it's extraordinarily complete. https://onlineexhibits.library.yale.edu/s/medicalastrology/page/introduction I have never seen so many remarkable resources all on display together. I hope they leave it up!

I am excited to open up this way for people to understand their bodies and propensities in whole rather than see ourselves in parts that only a specialist can understand.

When I think back to college, I began as an English major, thinking I would go to law school and follow in my father's footsteps. I took Botany as an elective and ended up switching to human biochemistry. Now I am back to learning about humans from plants.

I am enjoying the twists and turns of this plot 🔀

I hadn't seen the Yale material and will dive in! Many thanks for the collaboration 🤛🏽

Excited to read about this Maria! I remember laughing when I put it together that the extra large feet I was blessed with, were probably due to Jupiter being in my 12th house 🙃

I'm excited about this series! I have dabbled in astrology for decades and incorporated herbalism into my lifestyle twenty years ago, and I am convinced I am wiser and healthier as a result.
