2nd movement from the "Tabula Smaragdina" by Hermes Trismegistus
As is clear and can be understood from the quote from the Tabula Emerald, supreme scholars have assumed and continue to assume that every thing in the microcosm (every atom in our world) has a counterpart in the macrocosm (universe) has and vice versa. Of course, this also includes the human body and the cycle of illness - healing - health. The knowledge of these connections is summarized in the teaching #astromedicine (or also #iatromathmatics, Greek: íatros - healer or doctor; máthema - science or mathematics, .

10. Sentence from the "Tabula Smaragdina" by Hermes Trismegistus
The basic principles of Astromedicine
1. The signs of the zodiac with the planets related to themand body partsor.Organs (after Markus Manilius; 1st century ndZw, from his work"Astronomicon Libri V")
The spiritual planet
As spiritual planets, theplanets Uranus,NeptuneandPlutodesignated. They cannot be seen with the naked eye due to their distance from Earth. Their orbital period means that they stay in one sign of the zodiac for many years. Uranus is around seven years, Neptune almost 14 and Pluto between twelve and 32 years. This means that people of several years or even a whole generation have these planets in the same sign.
Uranus, Neptune and Pluto describe a spiritual principle. They represent issues beyond what the personal planets—Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars—represent, as well as the societal Jupiters andSaturn.
The very fact that they are not visible without aids is a symbol of their relation to the spiritual. What Uranus, Neptune and Pluto embody transcends the limits of the material (symbolized by Saturn). It also stands for what's in theboysPsychology called the "collective unconscious". These areas are demconsciousnessof humans usually not so easily accessible. Especially when people are too attached to the materially tangible, they find it difficult to deal with the energies of the spiritual planets.
3. The 4 elements
According to Astromedicine, the four elements are in balance both in the body and in the cosmos. Each planet corresponds to an element. If the balance is disturbed, then there is a health restriction. This is identified using the so-called horary astrology.

2. Sun, moon and planets and their relationships
The personal planets
Become in astrologySun, Moon, Mercury, VenusandMarsalso referred to as personal planets. These planets move rapidly, forming ever-changing, individual constellations.
Due to the short orbital period, they are in different zodiac signs in the horoscopes of people who belong to the same year or were born in the same month. The moon, for example, changes its sign every two to two and a half days.
These planets stand for issues that affect everyone in a different and very personal way:
Personal Consciousness (Sun)
emotional world (moon)
Contact and communication skills and comprehension (Mercury)
Stability, Self-Esteem, and Aesthetics (Venus)
Assertiveness (Mars).
The personal planets are contrasted with the social planets (Jupiter and Saturn) and the extremely slow moving spiritual planets (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto)
The social planet
JupiterandSaturnare also referred to as social planets in astrology. Like a physical threshold to this higher level, the asteroid belt draws its orbits between them and their personal palanets.
They run relatively slowly and influence not only personal matters but also social processes. Hence the term social planets.
Jupiter and Saturn are the furthest from Earth among the visible planets. Their orbital period means that Jupiter stays in a zodiac sign for an average of 1 year and Saturn for about 2 1/2 years. This means that people of one year or several consecutive years usually have Jupiter and Saturn in the same sign.
These two planets represent issues that go beyond the individual realm.
Jupiter represents the higher values that hold a society together, such as morals and ethics.
Saturn is subject to the laws that set limits and provide support for the individual.
In the individual horoscope, house and sign positions, as well as the aspects of the two planets are important. Jupiter is about striving for higher values and distant worlds, for abundance and generosity; in the case of Saturn, the theme is focussing on the essentials, relating to reality, discipline and drawing boundaries.
Pluto
Element:Water
In the body:Sexual organs, colon, rectum
Physiological:Reproduction, childbirth, function of the colon and rectum, elimination of waste
Psychologically:very high ability to deal with crises, courage to face the deep-acting transformative processes
medicinal plants:Arborvitae, cypress, yew, mistletoe, deadly nightshade, henbane
healing stones:dark garnet, precious black opal, sardonyx
Star sign:Scorpio
