What is Medical Astrology, you ask?
Medical Astrology is the branch of astrology that explores how the planets, signs, and houses correspond to the body and its natural rhythms. It’s one of the oldest forms of holistic medicine, once practiced by physicians and philosophers alike, including Hippocrates, who famously said, “He who practices medicine without the benefit of the stars is a fool.”
In Medical Astrology, the natal chart becomes a map of vitality, showing not only where we may be prone to imbalance, but also where our greatest healing potential lies. Each planet and zodiac sign governs different organs, tissues, and energetic systems of the body, and together they tell a story of how life’s stresses, emotions, and spiritual lessons take form in our physical experience.
This practice isn’t about diagnosis or prediction, it’s about understanding. It helps people navigate periods of challenge or uncertainty with more compassion and awareness, offering insight into how the body mirrors the psyche and how both can return to harmony.
In times of illness, burnout, or emotional transformation, Medical Astrology reminds us that healing isn’t only about curing, it’s about remembering the deeper patterns of meaning and purpose woven through every experience of the body and soul.
