A classic of medical astrology and herbalism
Delve into the astrological wisdom of Nicholas Culpeper, the 17th Century physician, herbalist, and astrologer, whose writing about health and herbs made a mark on medicine that resonates to the present day. His astute eye, keen wit, and encyclopedic knowledge led him to create his definitive English Physitian, more commonly known today as Culpeper's Complete Herbal. Planetary influences were key to his understanding of illness and healing. In his philosophy, each plant is governed by a planet, and the time a person takes to their sickbed is significant to their diagnosis and healing.
