SUN
SIGNS AND BIOCHEMIC MEDICINES
A German
physician Dr. Schussler realized that a deficiency of certain tissue salts can
lead to a number of diseases. These salts are normal components of healthy
tissues are essential for the growth and development of the body. Although this
system is considered to be an offshoot of Homoeopathy, it has its independent
standing. Unlike homeopathic medicines that are in thousands and are available
in various potencies or scales, the biochemic remedies are just twelve in number
and are available in the 3X, 6X, 12X, 30X, and 200X potencies.
Bio = Living (life),
Chemic = Chemical.
It means chemical
activity in living or life. In Homoeopathy whatever the drug that we ultimately
use contains chemicals which may be organic or inorganic. The source may be
from vegetable, animal kingdom or may be mineral, sarcode or nosode. For
example, Colocynth which is derived from vegetable kingdom contains Magnesium
phosphate (Mag-phos); Arnica and China contain Potassium phosphate (Kali-phos);
Lycopodium contains Silicea and so on. Biochemic salts are nothing but
Homoeopathic medicines in the Decimal scale.
Dr George Washington Carey went beyond seeing a connection between the sun signs and the tissue salts. Dr. George W. Carey came up with his theory of a person’s astrological sign corresponding to a particular biochemic salt. The fact is that there are twelve months and twelve sun signs and there are twelve biochemic salts. These are the salts that go with each of the sun signs according to Dr. Carey. A few doses a month will help to maintain the balance in the body. Each person's astrological salt can be given together with the salt necessary for the ailment concerned. In this article we discuss about biochemic medicines prescriptions on the basic of zodiac signs.
