Whatever your problem that was leading you towards hysterectomy, homeopathy has remedies that can help. If you have fibroids in uterus, there is a well defined sequence of homeopathical remedies that can help you get rid of them. More than one third of all hysterectomies is because of the fibroids, some 175,000 per year in the USA only! Chances are that more than 80% of all these 175,000 cases could have been saved with some kind of energy healing, especially if that method would have been homeopathy.

There are two main ways homeopathy could help you. In classical homeopathy, you would be given one and only one remedy that encompasses all or practically all of your symptoms, including those in the uterus or ovaries. The other method is to find a mixture of remedies, each of which would do a part of the job, towards the end of result of, say, getting rid off of the myomata.

The Constitutional Remedy

In classical homeopathy, the central notion is that of constitutional remedy. It is the remedy that deep down, fundamentally, is like you. It is the energy essence of your being. If you can find it, the results may be spectacular: the cancer retreats, chronic illnesses disappear… If this is so, then why is there any other kind of medicine, how come homeopathy didn’t win by a long shot? The truth is simple: it is very difficult to find the true homeopathic remedy. It takes time, devotion, lots of knowledge, sometimes luck. Finding a constitutional remedy is a homeopathical equivalent of searching for the Holly Grail! To illustrate the problems, suppose you take the role of a homeopathic practitioner and that a woman with heavy metrorrhagia caused by the presence of uterine fibroids is in front of you. You know that three remedies — Calcarea Carbonica, Phosphorus, and Sulphur — best correspond to that state. You know all their symptoms by heart:

Calcarea Carbonica

Mental symptoms: fear of povery, illness, death; sometimes productive, sometimes lazy; fear of the dark and ghosts; dislike of small spaces, thunderstorms, mice; discusses every detail of each illness to a too great a detail. Physical symptoms: sensitive to cold; often tired and anxious; excessive, sour-smelling sweat, say, after a light exertion; constipated, but feels better for it; metrorrhagia (heavy bleeding) because of uterine fibroids .

Personality type: shy, quiet, sensitive; when well, may work very hard; when ill, slightly depressed; tends to be overweight; prefers sweet, sour, and starchy foods, cold drinks, oysters; dislike coffee and milk; unusual craving, such as for chalk.

Now here’s the second of the three remedies:

Phosphorus

Mental symptoms: mentally allert; nervous under pressure; indiferrent to family and friends when ill; fear illness and death. Physical symptoms: problems with digestive organs, circulation, nervous system, the left side of the body, liver; bleeding, such as nosebleeding; metrorrhagia (heavy bleeding) because of uterine fibroids; respiratory problems; headaches.

Personality type: well proportioned, tall, and lean; fine or dark hair, with reddish finge; pale skin, blush easily; intelligent, outgoing, artistic, dresses with taste; open and affectionate; sometimes enthusiastic; not only afraid but paralysed from thunderstorms; prefers spicy, salty, sweet foods, carbonated drinks, cheese and wine, but dislike fruit, fish, and tomatoes.

Finally, here is a partial description of

Sulphur

Mental symptoms: selfishness, egotism; argumentativeness, agressiveness; fear of ghosts, height, failure; lethargic depression; full of bright ideas which fade away. Physical symptoms: burning, itching sensations; inflammation of the affected part; offensive oddors; metrorrhagia (heavy bleeding) because of uterine fibroids; thirstiness; weak areas are left side of the body, circulation, digestive organs, skin.

Personality type: either round and red-faced or lanky with bad posture; dry, flaky skin, dull hair, unclean-looking; full of ideas, but unable to carry them out, because of a lack of will-power; fuss over minor details; quick to anger, also quick to calm down; prefer sweet, fatty, spicy, and sour foods, alcohol, stimulants, dislike milk, hot; drinks, and eggs.

Comparing Calcarea Carbonica, Phosphorus, and Sulphur

We have two goals here. The first is to illustrate the problems of prescribing homeopathical remedies, so that you have some idea what to do when trying to select the remedy on your own. The other is a bit more elusive — maybe you are just one of those three remedy types so maybe you are just about to discover the remedy for you! The main symptom here is metrorrhagia due to uterine fibroids. Notice, however, that these remedies have other common symptoms:

fear thunderstorms — Calcarea and Phosphorus

dislike milk — Calcarea and Phosphorus

problems on the left side of the body — Phosphorus and Sulphur

fear of ghosts — Calcarea and Sulphur

There are differences as well: of these three, only Calcarea type person might have a history of eating chalk. If the patient tells you so, you need not look further, since the other two remedies do not have such a symptom.

Repertorization

The method we used here is called repertorization. You get the list of symptoms from the patient, and try to find the remedy that has most of those symptoms. Each remedy has its own list of symptoms. Some remedies, such as Lachesis, Sulphur, Pulsatilla etc. may have hundreds, even thousands of symptoms. In classical homeopathy, you make a list of all the remedies having one symptom, say it is metrorrhagia from uterine fibroids, then a list of all the remedies having another symptom, say it is fear from thunderstorm and so on. You must start from the symptoms of the patient, and from his first symptom you get a a list of remedies; from the second symptom you get another list of remedies and pick from those two lists only the remedy or remedies that have both symptoms. Then you take into account a third symptom, this generates the third list of remedies, and from that you take only the remedy or remedies that were pinpointed from the first two symptoms. (It is a mathematical process really, and the reason why you will find many mathematicians — myself included!, engineers etc. drawn to classical homeopathy). From several leading symptoms you arrive at the only remedy that covers them all (if such a remedy exists) and that is the remedy that the patient gets. It is mathematically proved that that remedy will cure all the symptoms, so — in theory — we only need wait for all those symptoms to withdraw or disappear. And in many cases it will just be so: it is from this fact that the whole idea of homeopathy draws its strength.

If you want to, you can repertorize your own symptoms. There is software for that, ranging from free to $49 to $1500 to $4000 and up, and there are also free sites offering limited repertorizations. After you get to a remedy, don’t order or take it yet, try reading something about homeopathy in general and about that remedy in particular. You will soon realize why being a homeopath is a profession unto itself.

Potencies and How to Make a Homeopathic Remedy

You can make a homeopathic remedy from just about anything. You start with a mother tincture, which holds the essence of something. For instance, if you wanted to make a remedy called Aurum Metallicum, which is gold, you would place a clean piece of gold into alcohol, let it remain there for some time (days, weeks etc.) and then the solution would have the essence of gold. In a simillar manner you would prepare the mother tincture from any flower, animal or human excrement, tissue, organ etc. Taking the remedy in the form of mother tincture is not the object of homeopathy. You make a homeopathic remedy by applying dillution and sucussion. Take a vial and put one part of the tincture in it and let the rest be 99 parts of, say, pure alcohol. You have just dilluted it to one 100th part, and it is denoted by 1C. Then shake the vial vigorously one hundred times and you have your remedy. Then take one part of that and put it into another vial with 99 parts of alcohol. Sucuss and you will have 2C. You go on in that manner for as long as you wish.

After 12 sucussions, or in the 12th potency as it is called, you have dilluted the original matter so much that there are no original particles left. When you drink a homeopathical remedy, you mostly get the information, the frequency of the remedy, not the original remedy itself. Much to everybody’s disbelief, the higher the potency, the stronger the remedy will act. This is also the main “logical” argument against homeopathy. Actually, the higher the potency, the more penetrating the remedy will be. In high potencies, the remedy acts on the higher parts of the patient’s energy being. The potency of CM, which stands for 100,000 sucussions, is said to go directly to the etheric body. There are even higher potencies, such as DM, 10MM etc.

Potencies dilluted in 10 parts instead of 100, are denoted as X or D. 1X is one tenth of the original substance, 2X is one 100 of the original substance and so on.

The most usual potencies are: 1X, 3X, 6X, 10X, 30X, 100X, 6C, 30C, 200C, 1M, 10M, 50M, CM, 10MM. You are free to use any other potencies, but if you are buying remedies from the homeopathical stores, you will be able to buy only what they have. If you were making the remedies on your own, with radionics machines, you will mostly be able to use any potency you like, up to 10MM or so. Depending on the machine you use, the range of potencies may be much higher.

Lower potencies usually work only on tissues and organs, while the potencies above 200C are, in general, considered high. The value of “high” has changed during the decades. In the beginnings of homeopathy, a potency of 12C or 30C was considered high, since it was difficult to produce manually. Later, various mechanical machines were made to help, so that in the middle of the 19th century, potencies such as 42M or 50M were available. Now, really high potencies can be made within a minute or so, through special machines (which are also displayed about in this book).

In the old school, the homeopath would have to first discover the remedy and then to decide upon the potency. If the remedy was given as the constitutional, the patient would take it three times in a row, in a potency 200C or higher, 12 hours apart, and then would let the remedy “do its thing”. In other cases, the remedy would have to be taken more frequently, in lesser potencies etc. There is also a contrary point of view: take the remedy in the highest available potency, 10MM or even higher, and let it sweep through the patient in order to erase all symptoms of illness.

In general, it is more important to prescribe a true remedy than to play with high potencies.

A homeopathic remedy should be used only while the symptoms last. After that, stop using it.

You take the remedy either from the globules (little pills) of sugar or from an alcohol solution. The result is the same. If you are making your own remedies, you can choose which carrier, and if you buy the remedy from the pharmacy, it will usually be in pills. Either way, you put the carrier into the mouth, beneath the tongue and let it be there for a minute or two. For best effect, you should not eat or drink half an hour before taking the remedy as well as half an hour afterwards. This is especially important if you are taking it as a constitutional remedy, meaning you are taking it a few times only.

Homeopathy in Practice

In homeopathy, prescribing the remedy is only the first part of the story. The patient may call you, and is almost certain to come back within a month or so. Then another remedy is prescribed or the first is repeated and so it goes on. If there is no progress after four months, the patient should change something — either the practitioner, or the method! (Joking only, do not change the method — homeopathy is with us for almost 200 years, and for a very good reason!) In the West, most homeopaths will be trained in classical homeopathy. If you visit them, you may be surprised by the procedure: they will just talk to you, more precisely, they will interview you. The first visit may last about on hour, sometimes longer. The homeopath will try to get as many details as is needed for him or her to decide upon the remedy. Those may be questions about any inherited problems, past illnesses, diet, conditions of living, sleeping, what kind of weather you prefer, what kind of food turns you on or off. Then the homeopath gives you the remedy and — often — you will not be told what it is. That is because some people are not happy when they are linked to this or that remedy. For instance, Lycopodium may be the best remedy for you but it also denotes a person obedient at work but acting as a local tyrant at home… See the point?

In classical homeopathy, you will be given exactly one remedy at a time. Theoretically speaking, there is no need to give two or more remedies since this will always be your constitutional remedy, the most powerful remedy there is for you. Unfortunately, there are only so many remedies, while the number of states the patient can be is indefinite. In reality, though, the patients one homeopath sees require only a handful of states and remedies. There are about 50 “main” remedies in homeopathy, and applying only them will cure most of the cases. For a more diverse practice, this may extend to 100 or so remedies, and they say that almost all cases may be resolved with 350 most popular remedies. The other remedies are just not used very often, if at all.

Still, too much energy is spent looking for the perfect remedy. A homeopathic practitioner from one century ago was seeing two or three persons per day, spending the rest of the day looking for the remedies. In this day of computers and the Internet, there is a lot of homeopathic software and it makes the tasks easier, but the fact remains that finding the true consitutional remedy is difficult. This is where many healers leave the realms of classical homeopathy, adding radionics and dowsing, prescribing homeopathic mixtures etc.

The Constitutional Remedy from an Astrological Point of View

In astrological terms, the constitutional remedy would be the remedy that most resembles your natal chart. For instance, Mars in Libra and the Moon conjunct Saturn in Aries in sixth and twelfth houses (the houses of illness) of the natal chart, would mean that your constitutional remedy must have some connection with inflammation of the kidney (Mars in Libra), eyes (Moon conjunct Saturn), sinusitis (Saturn in Aries) etc. Starting from that, without ever asking the patient about anything, we could narrow from the 3000 or so known homeopathic remedies down to only several. Actually, if we took the following symptoms:

Kidneys: inflammation Eye: cataract Head: pain: forehead middle: sinuses, frontal, from chronic coryza

the main remedy would be Apis. That may well be so, since Apis covers severe headache, lack of urination (Moon with Saturn is bladder), depression (Moon/Saturn — repressed feelings, harsh mother), irritability (planets in Aries) and so on. However, if the following symptom is taken into account:

Female Genitalia: metrorrhagia: fibroids, from

then the leading remedy would be Lycopodium. Note that neither Apis nor Lycopodium will have all the symptoms listed here. Homeopathy, as powerful as it is, is really uncomplete. In an ideal world, there would be a remedy having all the symptoms that a person has, but it just isn’t so. Even the most “constitutional” remedy still is an approximation of the patients energy field, these two can never equate. That is why, by the way, the maxim of homeopathy is “simillibus simillia curantur”, the like will cure the like — there is no mentioning of “the same curing the same”!

Temporary Constitutional Remedy

From the astrological chart you can see when there is danger and you can act as soon as you start seeing the symptoms in you and/or around you. You can turn to homeopathy and start taking the remedy much sooner than you would otherwise. It may not even be your true (natal) constitutional remedy, since the progressions and transits may drastically alter the original chart. In homeopathy, even the constitutional remedy will change in time. We can best see such a change from the progressed chart. The transits will also significantly skew the original chart: Saturn is 2-3 years in one sign, Uranus 8 years per sign, Neptune 16 years, and Pluto 10-30 years per sign.

Fibroids, for one, do not appear overnight. If you have the natal Moon on 22nd degree of Saggitarius, the stationary position of Saturn on 22 Gemini, in direct opposition, during the whole 2002 and up to the April 2003, probably has given you a concrete gynecological problem by now. In the natal chart it isn’t so, but the prolongued transits make it so. That means another remedy must be found, besides the constitutional remedy as such. Once again, if you find it, it can heal you, maybe not for life, but enough to get by through this or that crisis period in your life. So that would be a contemporary constitutional remedy.

The Role of Homeopathy in Healing

Homeopathy is the Holly Grail of energy healing: that the patient takes a few drop or pills, go home and be cured once and for all. It is a most direct form of healing available to us — if you can “spot” the right remedy, you can see amazing results within a few minutes, hours or days, depending on the case.

Another lady, I will never forget it, she came in my office absolutely dripping with sweat. The sweat was pouring off her and dripping onto the floor. Western medicine could do nothing for her.

Another lady could not speak. There was nothing physically wrong with her. Her family said she had not spoken a word since looking out the window and seeing a funeral procession-with her best friend’s husband walking behind the hearse. The sudden shock of her best friend’s death made her mute.

I wanted to do something for these patients, but my Western medical training gave me no answers. So I went to a bookstore to look up alternative medicine and found a book on homeopathy. I wish these patients would walk through my door today, because these would all be easy cases for homeopathy.
What would you suggest for someone who wants to get started with homeopathy but feels bewildered by all the different remedies?
Dr. Luc: Get to know one or two remedies and all the different things they can be used for. Arnica would be my first choice-it’s king of the trauma remedies and king of the sports remedies.

Arnica is good for the whole family for bumps, bruises, pulled muscles, and overuse of muscles, like someone who has a desk job and then gets 14 days vacation and wants to be a hero playing sports with his kids. It’s even good for elderly people who get spontaneous bruises, because as we get older the capillaries become fragile and burst easily.

Some lesser known uses of Arnica include overworry, overuse of the voice when someone is speaking all day, and for the flu, especially when there is a bruised feeling. Arnica is for bruises in general, and for illnesses with a bruised feeling, like when you feel as though a tank just ran over you and everything is sore, you don’t want to be touched.

Arnica is also a great absorber of blood. For example, my patients have had amazing experiences with their kids who bump their heads and get a big egg on their forehead, which of course means there is a hematoma, a leakage of blood. With Arnica the swelling goes right down and then they don’t have to take their kids to the emergency room.

So Arnica is great for the whole family starting from Day One. In fact it’s a great remedy for Day One! Give Arnica 200c to the mother for bruising from the delivery and give it to the baby for the trauma of coming through the birth canal.

Any other favorite remedies?
Dr. Luc: Arsenicum would be my second choice, especially for traveling. Never leave home without it! It’s the top remedy for traveler’s diarrhea and for food poisoning. Some people get diarrhea just from the change of diet when they travel. Arsenicum has rescued many, many a vacation, especially in the Middle East, China and South America where the water can be contaminated.

Arsenicum is also great for the first stages of a cold or flu, when you are just getting a scratchy throat and your nose is running like a faucet with a clear, watery discharge. Arsenicum will nip it in the bud.

Arsenicum is one of the top remedies for asthma and for shortness of breath in general, especially when you feel as though you are going to die because you can’t catch your breath. And it’s one of the best remedies for people who wake up after midnight, anxious and restless and unable to get back to sleep.

But in both these cases people shouldn’t diagnose themselves. For example, in homeopathy we have so many remedies for anxiety. The remedies are so precise, depending on whether the patient has fear for the future, fear of death, of disease, of failure, of flying, of taking exams, and so on. This is the kind of thing we will teach in our school.

What’s the best way to take the remedies?
Dr. Luc: This is one of homeopathy’s best-kept secrets: take the remedies in water. When you buy a little tube in the store with 80 pellets, the label says to take 3 pellets 3 to 5 times a day under the tongue. (There is no secret door under the tongue!) But it will work much better and much faster if you take one pellet and dissolve it in 4 ounces of water.

Take one teaspoon as needed-as often as every 20 to 30 minutes in acute cases such as high fevers and accidents. One cup will is good for 24 hours. If you need the remedy again the next day, make another cup. Putting it in water makes it reach more nerve endings. As soon as it touches the mucous membranes it starts to work. If someone can’t swallow, you can even swab it on their skin.

What if you run out the same day, can you make another cup?
Dr. Luc: You could but you shouldn’t need to, because as you start to feel better you slow down and take a teaspoon only maybe every hour or two. If you don’t see any improvement by the time you finish the cup, it probably means you have the wrong remedy. (It could also mean the potency is too low, but this is something you will learn from experience.)

So why don’t they say this on the label?
Dr. Luc: Maybe because they can sell more tubes this way! Or maybe because they just don’t know. Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, developed this method of taking the remedies in water at the very end of his life, and the manuscript in which he described it was lost for nearly 100 years. Even now it is not well known. The people who work in the pharmaceutical companies have probably never read it.

Are there any situations when it’s better to take the remedy dry?
Dr. Luc: Only if it’s impractical to take it in water. When I play tennis I keep Arnica and Rhus tox. in my pockets in case I sprain my ankle. I can take some pellets and keep on playing, then as soon as I have a chance I put them in water.

Here’s another secret: if you are going to be out all day, driving around in the car, put the remedy in a water bottle and take it with you. Then each time you take the remedy you can succuss it (give it a hard thwack, a “slam-dunk”). This gradually increases the potency of the remedy and it will work even better this way.

How many pellets, say for a typical 16 oz. spring water bottle?
Dr. Luc: Just one. You don’t need four just because there is four times as much water. We are dealing with energy, not with molecules. It’s a little more dilute this way, but succussing it will keep increasing the potency of the remedy.

Should you reduce the dosage for kids?
Dr. Luc: Not at all! In fact kids need higher potencies than adults. Never hesitate to give a child a high potency. It’s the opposite of Western medicine, where our dosages are based on bodyweight.

In homeopathy the dosage is based on the vital energy of the patient, and kids usually have much stronger vital energy than adults. Look at how fast a child can spike a fever. That shows how strong the vital energy is.

Let’s say someone looks up in a homeopathy book and figures out that Lachesis is the best remedy for her left-sided headache, but when she goes to the store to buy it, the tube says it’s for hot flashes. Why is that?
Dr. Luc: Each of the major remedies (the polycrests) has many, many different indications or uses. The pharmaceutical company can only fit one or two of them on the label. The good thing is that they have the freedom to do that, unlike vitamin companies, because homeopathic remedies are under a different law and the FDA allows this kind of labeling.

Do the remedies have side effects?
Dr. Luc: No, again because we are talking energy, not molecules. When you use potencies over 24c there is not even one molecule of the original substance left, and then when you put it in water it is even more dilute. You can get what we call a similar aggravation, though, if you take too much.

An aggravation is a temporary intensification of the symptoms. It’s unlikely to happen in acute cases, because you are using up the remedy so fast. You would have to really take a lot, maybe 3 or 4 cups of the remedy in a row, to get this kind of reaction.

If you do get an aggravation, just stop taking the remedy and your body will use up the excess. It’s like speeding in a car. It’s not a bad car, just a bad driver! You need to get used to the car. As you get experience using the remedies, you will get to know how fast you can take repeated doses.

Some people say you have to go through an aggravation to be cured with homeopathy. Would you agree with that?
Dr. Luc: Not at all! Hahnemann developed the water method to save people from the discomfort of aggravations.

Can you be allergic to the remedies?
Dr. Luc: No, for the same reason. Sometimes my patients say they can’t take Sulphur as a remedy because they are allergic to sulfa drugs. An allergy to sulfa drugs is actually a good indication that the patient needs Sulphur!

What if someone is allergic to lactose, can they have a reaction to the lactose the pills are made from?
Dr. Luc: Not usually, but if they are extremely sensitive they could have a reaction if they take the pills dry. It’s another good reason to take the remedies in water.

Can you develop a tolerance to the remedies the way you can to a drug?
Dr. Luc:As long as you need the remedy, it will continue to work. If your baby is learning to walk, all the time falling and smacking his head, you can give Arnica every day and it will continue to work. If a remedy stops working, it means you no longer need it.

Can the remedies be addictive? There is not one patient in a Betty Ford center addicted to homeopathic remedies!
Dr. Luc: Whereas there are many treatment centers and detox centers for people addicted to Western drugs. It’s scary how easy it is for people to and get addicted. All it takes is one hospitalization, and they give you painkillers sleeping pills without your knowledge or your permission. Before you know it you’re addicted. I have seen it many times in my practice.

What do the numbers mean – 6c, 30c, 200c?
Dr. Luc: They represent the successive dilutions the remedies go through. “C” stands for centesimal and it means a dilution of 1 part of the remedy to 99 parts of alcohol at each stage. The remedy is succussed, or shaken, 100 times at each stage so that the energy of the remedy is imparted to the liquid. The higher the number, the higher the dilution-which in homeopathy means a more powerful remedy, because the vibrational energy is higher.

Usually in health food stores you find 6c, 12c and 30c potencies. What’s the difference in how they are used?
Dr. Luc: I would rather see 30c and 200c in stores. I encourage my students to get 200c kits once they are familiar with the remedies. 30c is better when you are first starting out because if you take the wrong remedy in a 200c, you could get an aggravation.

6c and 12c are too low to do any good for acute situations. 6c and 12c are only indicated for chronic diseases, and people should definitely not diagnose or treat themselves for chronic diseases. Only a professional homeopath can do that.

Is that because 6c and 12c could be dangerous?
Dr. Luc: Not at all. It’s because a layperson could not prescribe the right remedy for a chronic situation, in which the choice of remedy depends not so much on the physical symptoms as on the mental and emotional onset of the disease.

For example, if I have four patients with chronic fatigue, one may be never well since taking birth control pills, another never well since overwork and overworry, another never well since multiple operations, and the fourth never well since heartbreak. They may all have the exact same physical symptoms and the same diagnosis in Western medicine, but they each get a different remedy from me, because homeopathy is so individualized to the patient.

What do you mean by acute and chronic?
Dr. Luc: Acute is something that just happened within the last day or two, within the last several weeks at most, that is self-limiting (it will go away by itself). In an acute disease, the vital energy of the patient is usually strong enough to overcome it. If not, it can turn into a chronic condition, one that develops over a long period of time and does not go away by itself.

In a chronic condition there can be a steady overall downfall of the patient’s health unless it is opposed by the right remedy. Other times there can be acute symptoms of a chronic state of imbalance or disorder in the system, such as PMS. A woman can have acute symptoms each month which can be treated with acute over-the-counter remedies each time-but if her overall constitution is treated by a professional homeopath, her symptoms will not recur. I have seen this many times in my practice-I do not even address the patient’s PMS symptoms directly because they go away automatically with the well-chosen remedy.

A lot of times health food stores have combinations that have 6 or 8 different remedies. Wouldn’t that be better than a single remedy, since you would be sure to cover your bases?
Dr. Luc: Actually, no, because the remedies can cancel each other out. I would rather see people become familiar with the single remedies. For example, I’ve seen a combination for Grief that has one remedy, Pulsatilla, for people who are very clingy and needy of consolation, and another, Nat. mur., for people who just want to be left alone in their grief. How can one person possibly need both?

Many homeopaths say you can’t use mint, camphor or coffee when you are taking remedies. Would you agree?
Dr. Luc: Coffee is the only one I put the accent on in my own practice. If someone is drinking more than one cup a day, I get them off the coffee first (with Chamomilla, Nux vomica or Coffea).

Decaffeinated coffee and other caffeine-containing foods like chocolate and cola are okay (not in other ways but in terms of canceling the remedy!) Mint and camphor are only important for the high potencies used by certain professional homeopaths, the Kentian prescribers. They won’t make much difference in acute situations where you are repeating the doses frequently.

Some homeopaths tell their patients not to do acupuncture or polarity or take vitamins while on a remedy. Why is that?
Dr. Luc: I tell my patients to do anything they can to support their vital energy while they are healing. Any healing modality such as acupuncture that follows the same natural laws as homeopathy will do nothing but help. The only thing is, they shouldn’t start doing these things the same week they start the remedy. That will muddy the picture. Then if they have a reaction, it’s not clear what they are reacting to.

I’ve heard that remedies are prescribed based on the symptoms present. So does that mean the remedies can’t be used preventively?

Dr. Luc: No, in fact here’s another little-known tip. They can be used ahead of time if you know you are going to need them, but in this case take 3 pellets dry in the mouth. For example, Arnica should be taken before and after strenuous sports for someone who is not in shape, or for weightlifters, football players, soccer players and others who are likely to get pulled muscles or bruises. And if one person in the family comes down with a flu or cold, everyone else in the family can take the same remedy.

If you know there is a flu coming to your area, before it even hits you can start taking Arsenicum or Oscillococcinum, the two top preventive flu remedies. Take 30c doses, 3 pellets dry once a day during an epidemic.

What’s your basic approach in finding a remedy for your patients?
Dr. Luc: I have them make a timeline with all the major traumas in their life, whether mental, emotional, physical, financial, or whatever. Any event that causes lasting symptoms will need to be treated eventually. We call it a layer. We start with the most recent layer first and work backwards, every time treating the Never Well Since (usually a mental or emotional trauma that triggered the onset of symptoms).

You are both a homeopath and an acupuncturist. What do you see as the connection between these two healing modalities?
Dr. Luc: They both work with the healing energy or vital qi, and they both follow the same natural laws of healing. For example, we know the patient is healing if the disease goes from the inside to the outside. Also both disciplines accent the mental and emotional origins of disease (unless there is a direct physical trauma like a cut, blow or burn). In both, each organ has certain emotions associated with it, like the liver and anger.

Each of the main homeopathic remedies has a place on the Star of the Five Elements in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Homeopathy is so similar to acupuncture that Hahnemann must have read the acupuncture texts that were available to him in translation.

Does someone have to be a medical doctor to practice homeopathy?
Dr. Luc: In terms of licensing, it varies from state to state. In terms of knowledge, many of the greatest homeopaths of the past have been laypeople.

Can you share one last secret with us?

Dr. Luc: Here’s a great one for sports injuries: if you’re a basically healthy person and have a serious acute injury, like a pulled muscle, take Arnica 30c, then 200c, then 1M, each time 3 pellets dry, 4 hours apart. I did this once when I pulled my thigh muscle while playing soccer. The muscle swelled up and turned hard as a rock. By the time I was through the Arnica it was back to normal again! I learned this tip from a Swiss-French homeopath and very few people in this country know about it.

Such a study is bound to stir up a reaction in the Western medical community. “Instead of tolerating alternative therapies,” the editors of The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) said recently, “the government should be regulating them more strictly, given the documented cases of people harmed by tainted or misleadingly labeled herbal remedies.” In addition, they said, alternative remedies-from homeopathy to healing touch to guided imagery – are getting a “free ride”, since they are not held to the same standards of proof as conventional or allopathic medicine. It is this last statement that I want to scrutinize as unfair to certain medical modalities, especially Homeopathy. Western medicine in fact is very often guilty of these very same arguments that were brought up in the scathing NEJM article. How many medications, heralded as break-throughs only months or years ago, are now completely forgotten because they did not bring what they promised. Just as some of those supplements, they were fads promising rapid cures, but now are rapidly replaced by the new fads who have their fifteen minutes of fame.

I do have to agree with NEJM as far as nutritional supplements are concerned. They are too often considered a panacea, overprescribed and mostly unjustified. Almost every year one particular supplement becomes the “miracle cure”, only to fall from grace the next year when the next fad appears. When you read about any “miracle cure”, get out the salt shaker. It is often a lazy way to live “more naturally” without putting any effort into life style and dietary changes. Some of these nutrients have achieved scientific status, however, such as Vitamin E and Vitamin B6 as allopathic studies have demonstrated. And with the exhaustion of our soil, nutrients are not as abundant as they used to be, possibly necessitating some additional supplementation.

Herbs are yet another story. I was invited last year to introduce homeopathy to second year students at Tufts Medical School. Before my arrival, the professor had written on the blackboard some thoughts about “herbal medicine,” believing that this was what Homeopathy stood for. His arguments were compelling and convincing. Herbal effects, he said, are difficult to monitor since mixtures usually contain more than one herb. So in case of a positive effect, we don’t know which one worked, and in case of an allergic or adverse reaction, we don’t know which one is responsible. Point well taken.

And he said, people can get sick from herbs and exhibit toxic side effects, even liver failure. True, although he forgot to mention that these cases are extremely rare, and usually caused when the patient ignores the prescribed amount and overdoses of his own free will. Of course nothing was mentioned about the fact that more people every year die from medications than from motor vehicle accidents, or that one third of illnesses in the U.S. are “iatrogenic” or “doctor/drug” induced. The recent issue of NEJM focusing on the dangers of alternative medicine chose to highlight two patients suffering mild symptoms from an herbal preparation containing digitalis mislabeled as plaintain. No mention was made of the thousands of patients who die each year from overdoses of medication prepared from digitalis. Digitalis toxicity is a well-known feature in the Western medical landscape, to the point that it is taken for granted and hardly worth mentioning. Nor is the fact that dozens of men have died so far from Viagra in its first few months on the market; remember the hue and cry over tryptophan, which was taken off the market when only a handful of people died from it?

The professor also made the same point as in NEJM: that alternative medical modalities should be subjected to the same vigorous scientific checks as allopathic medicine such as “double blind” studies. This brings up two questions: Is Western medicine actually tested by double blind studies? And is this a valid way of assessing medication?
The first question is quickly answered. According to their own allopathic studies, 67% of prescriptions are made for side effects of the drugs, not on the effect demonstrated by the double-blind study. In other words, there is no double-blind test to back up 67% of the prescriptions for medications in this country. As for the validity of such testing, it does not apply to Homeopathy, as I will demonstrate by explaining the Laws and Principles of Homeopathy. (Homeopathy cannot be lumped together with herbal medicine and vitamin therapy, however, which are closer to Western medicine and do not share Homeopathy’s laws.)

Our first Law, that Like cures Like, was formulated and applied by the Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, then further elaborated and put into practice by the famous German physician, Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843). The opposite Law in allopathy (Western medicine), “the Contrary cures the Contrary,” leads only to a worsening of the disease, controlling the disease to some extent without curing it, while creating side effects. If you can’t sleep, take a sleeping pill. If you are constipated, take a laxative. The result? The laxative creates more constipation. An ever-increasing dose is needed to get the same result because of the natural law, “Every action is followed by an equally strong and opposite reaction.”

Vaccinations, heralded by Western medicine as the crown jewel of prevention, follows homeopathy’s first law that “a similar disease cures a similar disease.” But then vaccinations are administered in mixtures, which is just as bad as administering herbs in mixtures. Plus they are given to babies before their immune systems are fully formed. Result: direct toxicity easily observed (from SIDS, to epilepsy, deafness, cortical blindness, mental changes, etc.) to delayed effects which only a homeopathic physician would recognize (warts, recurrent infections, deepseated organic diseases and auto-immune disorders). Vaccinations are also repeated too often and in much too high doses compared to the minute doses of homeopathy. A better solution would be to give vaccinations according to all Laws of Homeopathy, not just the first Law.

The second Law is the most controversial: use the infinitesimal dose, a dose so small that no molecules are left in the substance. Result: a gentle cure, speedy, with no side effects, allergic reactions and toxic after effects. In numerous studies (the Benveniste study at the Louis Pasteur Institute in France was one of them), the activity of these homeopathic remedies have been demonstrated with the laboratory methods of Western medicine. Of course, not one scientist can explain this phenomenon through existing physical and chemical Laws, but do we have the audacity to say that we know everything that there is to know in these sciences? Of course not. I also want to draw the attention of my medical colleagues to the Arndt-Schultz Law of Arndt-Schultz which says that, “Minimal doses of a drug stimulate, medium doses inhibit and large doses destroy cellular activity.” Pasteur should have known this when he introduced his “mad-dog” or rabies vaccination, killing thousands of innocent people before he finally reduced the doses. This was 1888 and unfortunately, he did not learn from the genius of Hahnemann who already 100 years before Pasteur and Koch, cured epidemics of scarlatina, typhoid fever, cholera, syphilis, gonorrhea and TB! That success alone has given Hahnemann his well-deserved place in history but he did so much more. Why does allopathy hides the results obtained in such epidemics? Just look at the statistics from the terrible Spanish flu epidemic of 1918. Patients treated with Homeopathy had a death rate less than 5%, with Western medicine more than 45-50%! And in the great cholera epidemic of 1831-1832 in Europe, starting in Russia, the death rate among patients treated with Homeopathy was almost nihil versus 50-60% in Allopathy!And these same remedies used in 1831 are still successful in such epidemics now.

Just this week (November 15, 1998), an excellent series appeared in the Boston Globe regarding frightening medical experiments performed on mental ill patients: their medications were deliberately withheld, they did not give true informed consent, and they were subjected to horrific side effects of withdrawal and the new unproved drugs. These facts border on criminality; an alternative practitioner would have gone to jail long ago for treating patients like this. And I wonder how many doctors would subject themselves to the same treatment? But this is what Homeopathy has done! The majority of homeopathic remedies were safely tested on Homeopathic physicians, their students and family members. Western physicians should have the courage to subject themselves to the same drugs, experiments and procedures they subject sick people and animals to.

The other Laws guiding the Homeopathic physician in his treatment and management of the patient are not relevant here. My only goal of this article is to show that Homeopathy stands apart from allopathic modalities through its scientific approach. No other modality, Western medicine included, is governed by so many infallible Laws of Nature. I would encourage my fellow physicians, before rejecting Homeopathy, to study and apply it. Countless detractors have done so before and have become the best advocates for Homeopathy. Aude sapere! Dare to know! Humanity will be the better for it.

If you know that there are three remedies which cause fibroids of uterus, why not take all of them at the same time? This works, big time. If you do not know how to determine the proper homeopathic remedy, you are free to choose the combinatorial approach. There are many commercially available mixtures. If you have your own remedies, you can make other mixtures quite easily.

Here are some examples that cannot be resolved through the one-remedy-at-a-time approach.

A Homeopathic Remedy for Restless and Painful New-Born Babies

Say you were blessed with a new-born baby and that he won’t sleep when you expect it. He is fussy, agitated… another night of no sleep coming to you!? You look up the homeopathic remedy and see that there are several candidates. The two seem most prominent: Magnesium Phosphorica and Chamomilla. Mag Phos has two main symptoms: better when bent to double, relieved under pressure and warmth. The other homeopathic remedy which is the candidate here, Chamomilla, is indicated when the child is better and quiets down when carried. Otherwise, the child is irritable, thirsty, sensitive, complaining… If you are not sure which remedy to “prescribe”, just make a mixture of both and give to the child. Often just one drop of such a mixture will buy peace until the next feeding.

Why limit ourselves to only remedies? We can make mixtures of three or many more remedies allright. If the mixture of two does not produce the desired effect, add another homeopathic remedy, here it could be Colocynthis, also for the pain in the stomach.

Shock

This following mixed homeopathic remedy will work on states of shock, as well as any condition resulting from fear. The theory is that while the person is under effect of the shock, the flow of blood in the body changes, forcing the blood to overfill one organ or tissue. Later, some kind of illness will develop in that part of the body. Most of the time the patient does not connect the shock with the current illness. The ultimate shock is that of coming to this world — of being born, but the shock may come from many other circumstance. For instance, when somebody died in the family, after a loss of a dog or a cat or some other house pet, after watching a horror movie on TV, after a surgery…

We are all continually “shocked” so this homeopathic remedy is a must for anyone. In our context, you can take it after you hear that you should consider hysterectomy. It contains four remedies, each of which deals with one particular aspect of shock:

ARNICA — any physical shock or trauma; any overstrain which could be a shock to the body or mind; great mental strain.

IGNATIA — emotional shock; grieving; great remedy for effects of grief and worry.

OPIUM — remaining dazed after the shock; loss of consciousness through any type of shock — physical, mental or emotional; conditions resulting from fright.

PASSIFLORA — a homeopathic remedy to quieten the nervous system.

All these remedies are in the 200C potency.

Interestingly enough, Rescue Remedy from Bach Flower Remedies is given in similar circumstances, and is also a mixture of five different essences. A very effective combination is to give a person in the state of shock both of these remedies at the same time. In other words, you are completely free to join two or more mixtures and form new remedies from them! You mentally treat them as one remedy for this and the other for that, regardless of them technically being mixtures in themselves. The only thing that matters is your intent to make a new remedy, following a well defined goal.

Paramedic Rescue

This can be followed ad infinitum. Suppose you had a mixture for injuries, consisting of Arnica, Bellis Perennis, Hypericum, Ledum, Rhus Tox, and Ruta, all in 200C potency. Treating it as just one remedy, you could make yet another combination for any shocked condition, consisting of Injury Mix, Rescue Remedy, and Shock Mix. These would all be in potency of 50M. Such a remedy — we can call it Paramedic Rescue — could be applied to any injury anywhere in the body, to a stroke, sudden drop in energy, heavy reactions to an emotional state and the like.

Things now get even more interesting. We can again treat it as one remedy in 50M potency and we can further combine it with the Shock Mix in 200C potency from which we started it all. This looks like a vicious circle (we have Shock Mix in two forms), but it really is not. Arnica 200C from the original Shock Mix and Arnica 50M from the Paramedic Rescue are two different homeopathic remedies, and they do not annull each other. Quite to the contrary, using one remedy in two different potencies makes it only stronger.

Does this work? It does. You do not know exactly what ingredient cured but most of the time you can live with that. The only thing that matters is whether there is a cure or not. When you add two remedies together, you actually put up their frequences, forming a third remedy — a third frequency if you like. In this way you overcome the basic flaw in homeopathy — the lack of remedies for all states the patients can be in.

There is yet another reason for creating mixtures — lack of information about the remedies. In theory, all the remedies should be studied quite well, tested on individuals etc. It just is not the case, for many remedies we know only the main effect on the body, while the mental and emotional states are not known. Here’s an example. One effective mixture for Post Nasal Drip consists of Elaps Cor, Kali Bic, Lemna Minor, Nat Ars, and Sticta. Our of these five remedies, Kali Bic is fairly well known, while the others are not. For Lemna Minor, for example, in Materia Medica we find that it is used only for post nasal dropping, there is no information what else that remedy could be good for.

The classical homeopathy purists would always like to find that one elusive and encompassing remedy, while the others are satisfied with a more realistic approach — give the patient something similar enough and let the body sort it out on its own. Both sides agree that the “singles” approach is the best, and indeed, sometimes, after the dust of combined remedies settles down, a homeopath will be able to find the single remedy.

Endometriosis (sometimes colloquially referred to as endo) affects some 89 million women of reproductive age around the world. With endometriosis, the endometrial tissue from the uterus is found outside the womb in other areas of the body. Under normal circumstances, the endometrium leaves the body each month through menses (unless conception occurs). In endometriosis, the misplaced endometrium has no way of leaving the body. The tissues, however, still follow the rise and fall of estrogen and progesteron, breaking down and bleeding as if they were still in the womb, with many of the following symptoms taking place in the woman’s body:

– internal bleeding,

– degeneration of blood and tissue shed from the growths,

– inflammation of the surrounding areas, and

– formation of scar tissue.

In addition, the growths can interfere with the normal function of the bowel, bladder, intestines and other areas of the pelvic cavity. Endometriosis has also been found lodged in the skin, the lungs, the diaphragm and even the brain.

The solution to endometriosis lies in the realm genetics, and homeopathy has ways of dealing with it. So, let Dr Luc, a world famous homeopath tell us about it.

Endometriosis and Homeopathy

It is my goal today to explain you what you as a sufferer from endometriosis can expect from homeopathy. How does Homeopathy differ in looking at a condition such as endometriosis, and may I say, looking at any other kind of disease? As you will see, to the contrary of what you might expect, Homeopathy is a true science, looking at each case of endometriosis quite differently than allopathy or modern medical science. I hope to answer more of some questions that might have intrigued the sufferer of endometriosis and which at present time are left unanswered by modern medicine. Questions such as:

Can this all be answered by Homeopathy? Yes! Much more, it can be treated, cured and prevented.

Before I will answer one by one the above questions which are crucial to your goal of achieving health, I will outline in short the principles on which Homeopathy is based, comparing it with our approach to disease in allopathy so you will see a distinct different approach to illness in general, and endometriosis in particular.
Before I start explaining you what homeopathy can do for you the endometriosis patient, consider the advantages of homeopathy when compared to Allopathic (modern) medicine.

What Does Allopathy Has to Say About Endometriosis

Homeopathic treatment is individualized – it considers the whole patient through symptoms (causality, mental, emotional and physical), rather than the disease as a name. Too often, we physicians think that our work is finished when we put a label on the patient.

“Yes, you have endometriosis (our main means of diagnosis is the laparoscopy in which we visualize the pelvic and abdominal area through a tube inserted through the navel). Take these drugs; you might need surgery, maybe it is both, go home and pray that it will go away.”

Homeopathy does not need a name for a disease. It looks at the person as a whole and tries to find the contributing factors of disease. What does allopathy say about the causes of endometriosis? They have not been established — in other words we don’t know!

We see that it can

But does this knowledge leads to a therapy in which you can say, the endometriosis sufferer,

“I know what to do now so I can say for sure, none of my offspring will suffer from this?”

Not at all! So we just hope and pray that it will not effect our children. Are the measures (surgery, drugs with its multiple side effects) a guarantee for a “cure” for you the sufferer? We already know the answer to this: it is a resounded NO. How Homeopathy looks at these contributing factors is mentioned further.

Advantages of Homeopathy

All remedies recommended in homeopathy have extensive human experiment. Contrary to what opponents of homeopathy would have you believe, all remedies are tested in the only scientific way, i.e. on normal, healthy individuals. This really should be taken over by modern medicine. I just saw on Larry King Reagan’s doctor speaking about Alzheimer and he asked volunteers for studies with new untested drugs. Doctors should be the first ones to do this on themselves like homeopathic physicians have been doing this for two centuries now.

The homeopathic method of prescribing on a totality of symptoms is designed to be curative, not just palliative and suppressive as when takes a sleeping pill for insomnia. Little in allopathic medicine is directed at reparation. This is just the contrary of what is often said by your doctor. Drugs used in endometriosis are geared towards suppressing the activity of the ovaries and therefore slow down the growth of the endometrial tissue. But suppressing is exactly what it means–suppressing, not curing with all dire consequences as a result (see further).

Homeopathy has its time-tested usefulness. Remedies used two hundred years ago are still used with the same efficacy as then for the same diseases. Allopathic medical fads run their course and disappear rapidly, whereas homeopathy is practiced all over the world. In fact it is the second most widespread form of medicine practiced in the whole world.

There is no drugging effect, and there are no side effects from homeopathic remedies. Unwanted effects are homeopathic aggravations, recognized by the well-trained homeopath and easily managed. I am sure when you take

Danazol

acne, wt gain, lower voice, beard growth, vaginal dryness, bleeding between periods, mood swings, liver malfunction, etc. or the

birth control pill

increased appetite, vein thrombosis, bleeding, nausea or the

gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRH agonists)

with side effects such as hot flashes, loss of calcium from the bones, dryness of the vagina and mood swings.

So in other words, if you don’t opt for surgery with a total hysterectomy, (and we are talking about victims between 25-44 years old and even teenagers!–WHO WOULD DO THAT??), you are sure to suffer from serious side effects of those drugs! Surgery is advised to women with moderate to severe endometriosis, again this does not lead to a cure according to allopathy. Why? Because it addresses the end result of the illness–the weeds, but not at all the root, the why you got this in the first place. And then there is the risk of adhesions with every removal of endometrial tissue. Only removal of both ovaries prevents recurrence of endometriosis but is this solution for these young women? Obviously not!

The cost of homeopathic medications is very modest and its application is simple. Practicing homeopathy by a majority of physicians would turn the health budget around over night! This is quite different from the high prices of drugs now often used in endometriosis patients: Danazol, the GnRH agonists, the BC pill, etc. Not one endometriosis patient in this world has to stay sick because they can’t afford the medications. And once you improve with your homeopathic remedies, you start taking less and less, even nothing because the disease gets cured, not suppressed in which case we take drugs indefinitely!

Most of the homeopathic remedies are prepared from fresh plants and minerals. Properly stored away from heat or radiation, they keep their strength indefinitely. And we never have to bring Nature in imbalance to produce the mass of medications asked. We only need to take one little plant and never in the next generations have to kill another plant. Quite a difference again with allopathy. A perfect example is that we need to kill four yuma trees to provide enough Tamoxifen drugs for one breast cancer patient.

Is it not amazing that despite this long list of the benefits of homeopathy that some not-so-well-intentioned people still label this great science as quackery?

A Practical Plan for the Endometriosis Patient with Homeopathy and Answers to Previous Questions

Time-Line for Order of Treatment and Diagnosis: the big difference with allopathy! This will answer the question, How did I come to this?

For a physician, every investigation into an illness starts with a good inquiry. Getting the facts together, the symptoms with their modalities and the different factors in the patient’s lifestyle contributing to the disease are essential if we want to be successful in restoring the patient’s health. Yet, most of the time, the physician often neglects the most important question:

“What happened in your life when you became sick or just before you became sick?”

I see enough doctors’ reports from my patients. They are explicit enough in the description of symptoms and the enumeration of the different illnesses, but they rarely link the onset of the disease to a meaningful event in the patient’s life. Yet, it is most often the clue to the solution. For you Endometriosis patient, this will be your first task. Communicate to your physician the exact circumstances and the first symptoms observed.

Some examples that I have seen in practice will clarify this. I might see ten endometriosis patients with almost identical symptoms. They will be treated identical in allopathic medicine with the few drugs, which address some of the symptoms. Yet, these ten patients have ten different beginnings or etiologies. They were “never well since”

I can make this list ten pages long and this is exactly what your doctor needs to do. The regular medical doctor will treat these different beginnings in the same way, simply because they have the same endings! How can we be so shortsighted? But these beginnings (triggers) have decreased your resistance and will lead to illness, endometriosis in your case. And a homeopathic physician can tell who among the population is at risk to get endometriosis even when exposed to the same trigger! (See further, miasms). Because the question can be posed,

“Why if a “grief” can lead to endometriosis, why is not everyone getting it when suffering a grief?

A Decrease in Vital Energy Leads to a Disease

A diseased state is to be viewed as a decrease in vital energy (Qi in Chinese medicine). Once this energy has reached a certain low level, the patient is susceptible to viruses, bacteria, yeast and parasites, which are consequences, not causes! When are we going to learn in Western medicine to put the horse before the cart, not behind it? It is this attitude that makes us lose the battle against cancer, AIDS and other serious chronic disease. So the first question I ask you the endometriosis patient is,

“What happened in your life on the moment that you became aware of the first symptoms of endometriosis (and we mean the months preceding your symptoms)?”

This is the first important factor to discover. It is the trigger that has put the lit on the fire, it is not the only factor because no matter what the trigger is, the terrain has to be just right to start something like endometriosis. This terrain is what we refer to in Homeopathy as the Miasms, which correspond basically, to your genetic background. It corresponds to what you received from your parents and what you will transfer to your offspring. More about this a little later.

When a homeopathic physician looks at the ten above mentioned Endometriosis patients, he will possible come up with ten different remedies, in spite of these patients having almost the same symptom picture. Does it not make more sense to treat the root of the problem, and not merely the little sick branches. Yet most doctors, alternative or classical, do not more than branch cutting, simply because they do not know how to restore the sick root. Allopathic medicine with its strong opinion about germs does not have the tools to repair the beginnings of Endometriosis. So they keep on using the few medications that cover some of the symptoms of Endometriosis or resort to surgery. Yet all these measures fail to address the beginnings of Endometriosis or why you got endometriosis in the first place!. Only “total” health modalities like acupuncture, chiropractic but especially homeopathy is capable of turning Endometriosis patient’s lives around.

Genetic Background (Miasms) or the Fertile Ground for Illness

The second factor that plays a role in getting endometriosis is what we already alluded to: the genetic background. Homeopathy is able to determine what people and who of your children is able to get endometriosis. How? By looking at both parents’ family history and see what Miasm is predisposed. (A miasm is a defect, a groove, a predisposition to certain illness, a weakness, we inherited from our ancestors. Obviously we all have defects but in case of endometriosis, we are talking about the sycotic miasm (see figure). Endometriosis is however only one expression of this Sycotic miasm. What are some of the other expressions?

How sycotic miasm prepares ground for endometriosis

You see them on this figure how many of these different expressions you have in yourself or how many you can find in your parents or children.

Mental, Emotional and Physical Symptoms of Endometriosis

Symptoms can either be on the mental, emotional or physical plane. Patient’s can either show symptoms only on the physical plane, others more sick on the emotional plane and the most sick have symptoms on the mental plane. I invite all of you to think about of how many of these symptoms you have or you see in your children/parents.
Mental symptoms for people with endometriosis: Forgetfulness for things just done, just said, Thoughts vanishing while speaking, bad memory for recent things, not old things. Imagine of you have to study this way: the only good energy is at night, starting around 8 PM till 2-3 AM. But during the day, teenager’s exhibit dreaming, inattention, restlessness, can’t sit still, in other words many of our kids and maybe some among you have suffered from what they call now in general terms ADD and ADHD. But it belongs to the same root as endometriosis.

Emotional symptoms: Thrill seekers, passionate people, love sex and talking about it, they prefer a short but exciting life above and long and boring one. Life has to be full of fun and thrills, unfortunately this can lead to criminality as the border is easily transgressed all in the name of fun, in search of the next new thrill. But definitely a great deal of our sycotic children are ADD or ADHD children. A sycotic person is one of extremes, never finding the middle ground.

Physical symptoms: warts, cysts, asthma, tumors, polyps, and any “hyper” activity of any gland, besides all the “-itis” diseases.

Now if you see any of the above symptoms in yourself or your offspring, they belong to the same expressions as your endometriosis. On the same chart you see also the triggers that will wake up this miasm if it is present in you.

So What About the Treatment?

Do you understand now why in allopathic medicine we have to say that surgery neither drugs is capable to eradicate endometriosis? And if we eradicate (rather suppress) its other expressions and the ones I have mention to you will appear. So in other words, if I suppress physical expressions, either the emotional or mental that I have mention will appear if you are not strong; if you are strong the endometriosis will come back. Why? Because we don’t treat the root, the trigger and the miasmatic background.

We have those remedies in Homeopathy tailored to each individual, this has nothing to do with a protocol. We are all different, we came to what we are in a different way, it is the sum of whatever happened in your life, and the only thing you have in common now is the endometriosis. And even that is not always expressed in the same way. Now you understand that the remedy you get from a homeopath, after answering so many more questions than to your regular physician, is the sum of your genetic make up and what happened in your life, so in other words it covers the beginnings of the disease, it focuses on them, on the root, because only such eradication can lead to a normal state. I hope that every endometriosis patient would learn about the magic of homeopathy in the eradication of their suffering.

They want me to start taking lupron to decrease estrogen after estrogen and progesterone receptor + cancer. Tamoxifen did not work as I am premenopausal. Lupron scares me but i am not sure if it is worth the risks. How else can i decrease my estrogen naturally?

Great question and you will not find an answer strictly within the pharmaceutical world. You have to get to the root of the problem and that is how the pituitary gland works. Treat her right and everything else will slowly start to fall in place. This is a simplified view, of course, but nevertheless, the right one, and it is almost sure to be overlooked by a gynecologist, which will only think in terms of his or her specialistic profession.

You need a remedy that will affect the pituitary gland, and the actual way doesn’t matter:

– it can be herbal,

– it can be homeopathic, or a mixture of both,

– acupuncture or Su Jok,

– Reiki

and so on. If that works, fine.

The more fundamental way would be to see what emotions are whirling in your energy bodies now. Maybe the relationship you are in now needs adjustment, maybe there are monetary problems which ruin everything and your female body reacts the only way it knows how, by disseminating the energy from the emotional level deeper to the body, thus creating illness. A more proper therapy for this level would include Bach flower remedies, for example.

Finally, and this is the only way my services finally enter the picture, if you want to predict what will happen in the future AND start rectifying things and behaviours BEFORE they escalate, you may need a horoscope reading from me.

If you order the reading, you will actually get such videos for YOUR case, with specific therapies for you both now and in the future and so on.

I am posting this to the blog because the question is very important and will be of use to many other visitors to the site. Thank you for posting it in the first place.

If you want to have children but are already diagnosed with fibroids, a natural question occurs: how to eliminate uterine fibroids before the pregnancy!? Pregnancy with fibroids will in some cases end up happily, but it is risky and prone to many problems, such as bleeding or calcified fibroids. Large uterine fibroids will make it downright impossible to get pregnant because the fertilized egg will not be able to implant itself into the lining of the uterus and thus officialy start the pregnancy.

If the fibroid is not large, the egg may implant itself successfuly and then it is a matter of chance whether the pregnancy will be full term or not, depending on the interplay of the growing foetus and the fibroid, one or more of them. Apart from the “mechanical” problems the deeper problem may be the hormonal one, because there is a reason the fibroid started to grow. Most often it is too much of estrogen that is being produced together with the excessive reactivity of estrogen receptors inside the uterus. If hormones are the problem, the pregnancy will end abruptly sooner or later, because if there is more estrogen as compared to progesterone, the lining of the uterus will grow and will fall off.

It may happen anywhere and anytime, while the woman is sleeping, or is doing ordinary house chores, or when going out to do the groceries… At least 3000 people have personally consulted with me in my capacity as a professional astrologer so far, but I still vividly remember a marital couple that came to me see whether they could they have more pregnancies and, finally, children. On Monday, they went to the gynecologist (she was in the end of the third month of the pregnancy), had everything checked out and everything was OK. Two days later, she woke up in a bed full of blood — the pregnancy was no more, without any sign of warning.

Treatment for Uterine Fibroids

The purpose of this post is to show alternative medicine methods to eliminate uterine fibroids before pregnancy, but there are other kinds of treatments for uterine fibroids. One that you will encounter often in Western medicine is fibroids treatment with Lupron (“Lupron from hell” as they call it), but is just a road to hysterectomy — guaranteed.

It is possible to eliminate fibroids through myomectomy, but that will have its own set of problems:

Myomectomy

Laparoscopic myomectomy

Abdominal myomectomy

Hysteroscopic myomectomy

What To Do If You Have Recently Lost Your Baby and There Were Fibroids in the Uterus

Here is what you should take now, at least four times a day in order to overcome the emotional problems left after you lost your baby

http://www.how-to-avoid-hysterectomy.com/rescue-remedy.html

There also is a more specific combination for this case and that is:

Star of Betlehem, Gorse, Walnut, Pine, Willow, Sweet Chestnut, Cherry Plum

You should take the above combination for at least two or three months in a row, for at least four times a day.

After that, while trying to conceive again, the following combination of Bach flower remedies would come handy:

Impatiens, Star of Betlehem, Gentian, Gorse, Vervain, White Chestnut

All these methods to eliminate uterine fibroids before pregnancy could be improved in personal contact with a dedicated practitioner, be it a professional herbalist, homeopath, or a Bach flower remedy practitioner. From me, through a medical astrology reading, you can gain glimpse of how the general energy trends will apply to your particular case. For example, as a rule of thumb, flower remedies are prescribed for three months in a row and the general wisdom says to stop. But if Uranus, the planet of speed and impatiency, makes hard aspects to your Sun or Moon for the entire next year, then you should be taking Impatience for that entire year instead of only three months.

If you are interested in why medical astrology works, you can read more about spiritual dimensions of medical astrology here. On that page you will also find when the medical astrology reading is not the best or the final answer to the client’s or patient’s needs and what to do then.

– to stop doing the D&Cs, which were uncomfortable and painful,

– to go in for a chemo therapy, or

– to go all the way down and have a hysterectomy.

Here is my comment to this situation:

Doctors deal with patients, ie with people that have some discomfort, pain, illness etc. It is all too easy to screw up and make patient feel and behave much worse instead of much better. Doctors would like us to believe that they are omnipotent, as if when they wear their official white wardrobes they become powerful wizards, be all, end all, cure all. In reality, they are just humans willing to help and they might have some ready to use knowledge that patients find welcome.

So far so good, you go to a doctor, he or she tells you what to do, and that often helps. But what about those cases when doctors cannot help, or worse, when the things they suggest and do make everything worse on their own!? That is why doctors work within procedures: each problem you throw at them, they respond through a set of fairly rigids official procedures. It is this word official that is the problem here.

What is official and how do doctors learn about what is official? Official is what some body or committee of doctors says it is official. That is, they get together, two or three doctors that are at the foremost of the research tell others what should be done and how, and a new procedure is born. Each practicing doctor is then responsible not for healing a patient but for applying the right procedure in the proper way. There is a huge difference between healing or curing and applying a proper procedure and that what this comment is all about.

In the above post, the doctor suggested three separate things, none of which is aimed at curing or healing or advancing the health of the patient. He or she is bound by the available procedures for the patient’s situation, but if none of the procedures is going to work, then what — he doesn’t really care! He has done everything he could according to the trade he is in, but how will that help the patient to have a child, in this case? The doctor is legally covered and he can even be sympathetic to the patient, wishing her every good in the world, but he still is bound by his chosen profession.

The senseless D&Cs really should have been stopped, or at least a hysteroscopy should have been performed, in which the doctor can actually see something inside the uterus. There are videos on YouTube ( Hysteroscopy Of Intramural Fibroids Video and Operative Hysteroscopy For Intrauterine Adhesions Video) so everybody can see what it looks like.

The chemo therapy as it is called here is not a chemo therapy in the sense of someone having cancer and then applying a chemo therapy, here it is a hormonal therapy aimed at resolving the symptoms. Finally, the most horrible idea is to have a hysterectomy because there will never be babies after that. But all this is leading to a hysterectomy, the situation that this doctor is leading his patient to has even been statistically researched, and the conclusion was that hysterectomy was inevitable when “everything” was tried, including the hormonal treatment.

We are all too ready to believe everything the good doctor says, but in this case and in all cases such as this, there is a lot to try and do inbetween the symptoms and final solution, i.e. hysterectomy. There is homeopathy, there is Reiki, Su Jok, acupuncture, enzyme mixtures, herbal remedies, crystal therapy… as well as many others, none of which is in the domain of our good doctor because the official medicine didn’t approve any of them.

I wish your friend all the best, and especially not only to get well but to have that baby finally. Life with a baby of your own is what life on this planet is all about.

PMDD is similar to premenstrual syndrome (PMS), but differs from it in severity. She is anxious, full of anger, there is depression as well. Irritability runs amok. The symptoms surface between ovulation and menstruation, and disappear within a few days after the onset of the bleeding. The main symptoms may consist of the following:

• feelings of sadness or despair, or possibly suicidal thoughts
• feelings of tension or anxiety
• panic attacks
• mood swings, crying
• lasting irritability or anger, increased interpersonal conflicts
• disinterest in daily activities and relationships
• trouble thinking or focusing
• tiredness or low energy
• food cravings or binge eating
• having trouble sleeping
• feeling out of control
• physical symptoms, such as bloating, heart palpitations, breast tenderness, headaches, and joint or muscle pain

Five or more of these symptoms may indicate PMDD. Symptoms occur during the week before the menstrual cycle and disappear within a few days after the onset of the bleeding.

No wonder women with PMDD start wanting to have a hysterectomy, thinking it will erase the pain.

PMDD Alternative Medicine Therapy

In the USA, PMDD is recognized as a disease, while in other parts of the world, that simply isn’t so. Nevertheless, PMDD should be treated and there are several alternative medicine disciplines that might land a hand here. From homeopathy, Cimicifuga Racemosa, Black Cohosh, comes to mind, because it links severe menstrual disorder with the idea of suicide. From Bach Flower Remedies, one might think of

Cherry Plum, to stop from suicidal actions,

Mimulus from being fearful when “that time of the month” starts approaching,

Impatiens to regulate pain,

Gorse to finally find some new way of healing.

Mustard and Gentian are also a must to relieve depression.

Reiki would be excellent here, as anybody can apply it and it will alleviate the pain at first, and then work towards the general healing. If you apply Reiki towards an affirmation such as

I want to find the best way to cure my PMDD

new doors be start to open to you. The consequence of giving Reiki to such an affirmation is that new methods of healing may enter your life, so even if Reiki would lead to homeopathy or something else, it would still be acceptable!

So, there you go! If you suffer from PMDD, please try out this PMDD Alternative Medicine Therapy and let us know the results through the comments on this page.

Hi

Well, thank you for sharing this. Since I am into medical astrology and energy healing I’ll give my advice in spite of you not asking for it. In case it is somehow unsuitable, please delete this comment.

There is a homeopathic remedy called Cimicifuga Racemosa which fits well into the state of post-partum depression. You should check it out with a professional homeopath, if you can find one near you.

In Bach flower remedies, you should check Cherry Plum and White Chestnut, but if you already have a bottle of Rescue Remedy in house, please take that for at least three months at least four times a day.

You can also try Reiki treatments. If you cannot find someone to physically give you a treatment, you can try distant healing, look for an Energy Pack on my site www.how-to-avoid-hysterectomy.com.

You can and you will get better, but it is not probable that hysterectomy will solve anything, you know. Do not rush things, if you really want to know what is best for you, take a Bach flower remedy called Wild Oat.

I apologise if this is not a comment that you are accustomed to have, but I try to be practical.

And by the way, there are no affiliate links in this comment, everything I mentioned is free or is very low cost at the usual prices.

Do get well, though.

Here is a case in point, from a well known homeopathic site hpathy.com. She was a well-known actress, who was in a relationship with a much older another actor. They could not have children because of the social setting, so she had to supress that urge. She always wanted to be flattered, and somehow felt herself bigger than the rest of the people. Homeopathic remedy Palladium does very well when praised, but feels awful when scorned at. Unlike Platina, Palladium type will never fight in the open, they feel much too vulnerable for that. Thus, they project their wishes inwards.

Palladium is one of the main remedies when huge tumor develops in the sexual organs, especially in females. Is very useful for tumors of ovaries, especially of the right ovary.

Palladium patient does have sex, their sexual appetite is, in fact, quite large. They will often mix obscenities and vulgarities with sexual intercourse and even children of the Palladium type are quick to speak foul language.

Palladium is in an internal conflict, they want to be praised but their pride does not allow them to ask for signs of affection. That confused emotional state can produce convulsive movements, first of the face and then of the entire body.

Women in this state can feel as if their inside is prolapsing, and Palladium can sometimes be used to stop the prolapse of the uterus.

In the case in question, Dr. Jawahar Shah of Mumbai prescribed Palladium 200C, and it was repeated four times during the next year. After a year, ultra sonography showed no fibroids at all, the cure was complete.

The Moral of This Case?

If a doctor has told you one of these days how you must have a hysterectomy and fast, you are not a candidate for these subtle but efficient methods of healing. If a surgery is scheduled for the next month, how will you ever know was Palladium or any other homeopathic remedy the right cure for you?

– abdominal pain,

– acute pain,

– agony,

– back pain,

– chronic pain,

– pain after surgery,

– pain and depression,

– pain during sexual intercourse,

– pain in the uterus,

– pain in the ovaries,

– pain during urination,

– pain during bowel movements

and so on.

Reiki can be applied as a universal remedy for pain. It is ideal in this regards because it is possible to apply it without knowing anything about the diagnosis, nature of the disease and so on. You can manage pain with Reiki because it is not actually you who are healing, it is Reiki itself, a loving intelligent energy of healing.

Sometimes you will be able to manage pain with Reiki and nothing else, but in many cases the process or healing or recovery will be speeded up if you apply other alternative medicine techniques, such as acupuncture, homeopathy, Bach flower remedies and so on.  If you are too debilitated to contemplate all this, ask the people you live with to fetch remedies for you or learn how to apply them to you.

The following question was posted on Yahoo Answers, on 6th of December 2007:

My mother had uterine fibroid tumors, and I think I may have them, too. I am bleeding extremely heavily, enough to soak a tampon within half an hour. I have made a doctor’s appointment, but they cannot see for a month.

Are there natural ways to reduce this bleeding? HELP!

Here is my answer, which, by the way, was in no way the only one.

There are other ways to deal with fibrods, some of them are described on this very site, such as:

Homeopathic Treatment For Uterine Fibroids

Herbal Remedies For Uterine Fibroids etc.

My contribution to that thread was this:

Hi

Having a hysterectomy is never a picnic. The only way of telling what will happen next is medical astrology, but there are very few people in the world that practice it. For every woman that had her hysterectomy done well, there is a legion of women who curse themselves for being so stupid to give their consent for it, without realizing what they actually do.

Uterus is a vital part of woman’s body, it stores sex hormones created by the ovaries during the night and releases them during the day. If there is no uterus, the hormones get expelled with the first morning urination and from there so many problems follow that it would require an entire site to explain the consequences.

Fibroids are tumors, and tumors are large tissues — ask yourself, what in my life is food for these tumors to grow!? Uterus is an organ for emotional responses, it is your primary means of reacting to the world as a woman. In other words, it is the emotions that give food to the tumors and cancers, resolve emotions first, they are the origin of the illness, and simultaneously try to heal the body.

If you want to heal your fibroids and uterus, you may be interested to know that there are several alternative methods of healing the uterus without surgery: homeopathy, Su Jok, Reiki, herbal remedies, seed therapy, a combination of these etc. Maybe the simplest would be to try the enzymes which resolve the myoma, Google them and you’ll find them.

All the best, Dusko Savic

Question: I have had problems with an irregular cycle. I also have fibroids. My doctor has recommended a hysterectomy, but I am uncomfortable with such radical surgery. Do I have other options? I am 45 and otherwise in good health.

which is answered by Dr. Richard T. Bosshardt for Orlando Sentinel, under the title of
Weigh your options before you undergo hysterectomy. Here is my comment to the article:

==========================

Hi

A nice article written from the doctor’s point of view. I’d also like to remind that there are other methods from alternative medicine that can help with fibroids and irregular bleeding.

With the advent of the Internet, women to which hysterectomy was suggested can ask other women through specialized forums and groups, and there are dozens of sites devoted to hysterectomy and its consequences. Here are suggestions for some of these:

www.youtube.com, search for hysterectomy, laparoscopy, myoma, myomectomy etc.
www.nohysterectomy.com, written by a leading gynecologist in the USA
www.how-to-avoid-hysterectomy.com — minimally invasive procedures such as endometrial ablation instead of hysterectomy, then homeopathy, Bach flower remedies, herbal remedies, Su Jok, Reiki, enzymes… are the methods of energy healing that can all help with the fibroids. The site also contains a collection of annotated videos from youTybe and Google Video.
www.hystersisters.com — a site for hysterectomy recovery, very large, contains a ton of info, but geared to those that have already had their hysterectomy, preferably a “happy” one.

There are other links of course, but these can be a useful start. You have the right to know what will happen to your body after such a major surgery so do your homework well.

All the best, Dusko

I am not a medical doctor of any kind, so who am I to write on hysterectomy, the most dreaded and dreadful gynecological surgery that exists!? I am not on any kind of vengeance ego trip here, as so many women on the Internet who were screwed up by hysterectomy are. I just know many hysterectomies can be avoided, and I also know how it can be done and here is a convoluted story of how I reached that conclusion.

I got pregnant for the first time in March 2003. My baby was due on December 6 2003. My pregnacy was perfect, no complications, bloodwork was perfect.

I checked into the local hospital on November 19 with mild contractions. I was dialated 1.5. The doctor and hospital said i was in preterm later and it was going to take a long time for me to deliver, so they told me they were going to send me home in the morning so I opted to go home.

On the morning of Nov. 21, I didn’t feel my baby move. She was very active. Always kicking up a storm. I started to get worried and went to see my dr. They confirmed that there was no heartbeat. It was the worst moment in my entire life. She was 37 1/2 weeks and beautiful.

It has been a dreadful 2 1/2 years already. I requested an autopsy and it read DX Umbelical cord thrombosis. A clot had cut her breathing supply.

After my birth, I switched dr’s and went to see another dr. In April 2004. I got pregnate with my 2nd baby. I went to see my Dr. and he said there was no gestational sac. It would eventually lead to miscarriage, and at 5 1/2 wks, it did. I started spotting brown, then bleeding.

I started seeing a homeopathic dr and had 1 mc with him. He said the reason I mc was because my womb was getting ready again for another baby. It started the same, at 5 1/2 weeks, spotting brown, then bleeding heavily. I had nowhere to turn and was so saddened by the fact I could not hold on to my pregnancies.

So in turn, I had a stillborn baby at 37 1/2 wks and 3 miscarriages.

The last pregnacy I had was in Feb. 2005. I’ve been seeing a specialist in Fertility since August 2004. In Feb 2005 I got pregnant again and mc at 5 1/2 weeks. Spotting brown, then bleeding.

He has helped me conceive, but we still have not found the cause for the miscarriages. He has given me Clomid, progesterone, has given me bloodwork exams and so forth. He doesn’t want to give me fertility treatment just yet because he wants to wait on my pap results In June. He said if they come back abnormal, he will give me other treatment for that instead of the fertility treatment.

I’m very scared those results might come back abnormal again and I will never be able to have another child. And even with that, I don’t want to waste anymore time. I am 31 years old and my bio clock is ticking. Sadly, I don’t have any living children yet and that’s why I’m getting very anxious, depressed, and losing hope. I would really appreciate any information you can provide me.

Since this analysis takes hours and hours of my real time to make, I told her to start using the General Energy Pack right away, as a sort of first aid. Here is her comment after receiving two Energy Packs:

Wow.Energy packs makes you feel great. Cant explain the feeling. Feel physically better since I started taking it. Thanks!!

The second surgery was in 1985 in the summer I beleave and it was to remove a bone tumor from my toe. The last surgeries were to remove a tumor from the left fallopian tube (tube was spared as the tumor was on the fascia not the tube itself) and a fibrous tumor from the left axillary region (breast tumor) all benign. Performed sept of 2003. The date is close.

I was diagnosed with endometriosis when I went in for a check up 5-1-06. We started trying to conceive after we got the all clear early 2004. Other than asthma (seasonal) (first symptoms when I was 6 weeks old but undiagnosed until 6 months old) and hypothyriodism (diagnonsed 2004), all else is fine.

She was released from the hospital without any intervention or therapy for the acutely bleeding uterine fibroids! In this situation, she remembered homeopathy, due to Mercury in Pisces and Venus in Aries in the solar chart. (The signs of Pisces and Aries are very imporant for homeopathy, because its founder, Samuel Hanneman, had three planets in Pisces and another three planets in Aries; Kent also had six planets in these signs.) So she was prescribed a routine mixture of homeopathic remedies for uterine fibroids. All the problems, including the fibroid itself, disappeared within the first month of treatment, without any surgery.

The Natal Chart

This woman is born on 6th of February 1955, 8:15am, 44:48N, 20:30E.

Here are the important facts from the chart: The Sun is on 15 Aquarius, the Moon on 6 Leo, and the Ascendant is 20 Pisces.

Mars sextile the Sun together with Jupiter, Uranus and the Moon in the fifth house, made her spend her youth playing tennis.

There is a striking great watery trine, the Ascendent on 20 Pisces, Saturn in the VIII house on 20 Scorpio, then Jupiter on 22 and Uranus on 24 Cancer.

Saturn in Scorpio in the VIII house will give diseases of reproductive organs throughout life. Pluto rules the VIII house and is in the VI house, opposite to retrograde Mercury on 29 Aquarius, where Mercury is a co-ruler or second ruler of the VI house.

Mercury and the Sun are in the XII house… all the three houses of diseases are connected through aspects of the planets, so in one point in life this has to materialize as an illness.

Additionaly, Saturn squares Pluto (his ruler) and is inconjunct Mars (another ruler of Saturn, through Scorpio). Fortunately, Saturn is a part of the aforementioned great watery trine, which will facilitate easy regeneration from the diseases of the VIII house in Scorpio.

Hard aspects of Saturn, in Scorpio and in the VIII house, are a predisposition for a bladder stone.

Saturn square the Sun is an operation as well as a chronic rheumatism.

The Moon in the V house in hard aspects and on a malefic fixes star is a precondition for premature abortions of a pregnancy.

A full V house with hard aspects of Saturn and Uranus to the rulers of the VI and VIII houses, guarantees the presence of venereal diseases or some other disorders of the genital system.

The Moon is on the fixed star North Aselus, which can lead to blindness or other problems with sight, when the transits come.

The Solar Return Chart and Transits for 2001

Let’s have a look at the solar return chart for 2001.

The Ascendant is on 23 Gemini, the VI house is from 10 Scorpio to 23 Sagittarius, with both of its rulers in it — Mars on 25 Scorpio and Pluto na 14 Sagittarius. Mars is in exact opposition to Saturn on 24 Taurus, the Sun is on 16 Aquarius and Uranus is on 20 Aquarius. From there, Uranus precisely squares the natal Saturn on 20 Scorpio. This chart contains similar energies, the Sun and Uranus are the focal points of a fixed T-square, with Saturn opposed to Mars as a base. This year, some illness will strike for sure, but it will not be fatal.

The VIII house is empty, while Pluto from the VI house is in exact sextile to Uranus and Sun, serving as an energy outlet for that T-square.

Mars in Scorpio in the VI house is an acute illness of the genitals (bleeding and inflammation), Saturn in the XII house is going to a hospital, Jupiter conjunct Saturn is a tumor and we only need see which part of the body to focus on.

The Moon on 6 Leo is in exact inconjunction with Neptune on 6 Aquarius, and we note that the 6th degree is similar to the VI house and the VI sign, therefore, the illness will be visible on part of the body ruled by the Moon exactly — the uterus itself.

Venus square Mars gives congestion — surplus blood being stored in the walls of the uterus.

Progression for 2001

The progression for year 2001 is similar to the solar return chart as the Ascendent is on 4 Gemini.

The VI house is in Libra and Scorpio, the VIII house is empty, and in the XII house Mars is on 18 Taurus opposed to Saturn from the VI, on 20 Scorpio. In the solar chart we see an identical opposition between those houses, except that Saturn is in Taurus and Mars is in Scorpio! The other important element is opposition of Venus to Pluto, which is making “a state within a state”, i.e. tumors and growths. Venus on 22 Aquarius and Pluton on 24 Leo are not only in opposition but are a part of grand cross with Mars and Saturn. It is a trend shaping for some ten or so years and has to materialize as a chronic (Saturn), long (fixed signs) illness of genital organs (Scorpio active, as well as its rulers), tumor (Venus opposed to Pluto), which must be resolved through amputation (Mars square Pluto) of the diseased tissues. The only difference is that here the uterine fibroids were amputated in a non-surgical manner.

Astrohomeopathical Diagnosis and Cures

In the natal chart, the following remedies are prominent: Arsenicum Album, Nux Vomica, Tubercullinum, Ignatia, Thuja, Strammonium, Naja Tripudians, Psorinum, Pulsatilla, and Calcarea Carbonica.

In progression, the remedies are:

Natrium Muriaticum, Latrodectus Mactans, Stramonium, Thuja, Platinum Metallicum, Syphillinum, Kalmia Latifolia, Lachesis.

In solar return chart, the remedies are:

Nux Vomica, Natrium Muriaticum, Aurum Metallicum, Tubercullinum, Strammonium, Silicea, Ferrum Phosphoricum, Syphillinum, Conium, Kalmia Latifolia, Psorinum, Pulsatilla, Sepia, Lachesis.

All this lead to an efficient healing with a mixture of homeopathic remedies, please see the page on homeopathic treatment for uterine fibroids.

All in all I have written, published, marketed, and sold some 25 books of my own. For many years I also worked as a computing journalist and editor (I published more than 300 articles) and had about 70 appearances in various TV shows on computers (this was all from 1986 to 1990). I have also taken part in various radio shows on computers since 1994 to 2000. I do have a publishing company called “PC Program”, and from 1996-1999 it published 27 books about popular computer games, Windows, MS Office, Internet and the like. I stopped doing publishing in 1999, after my country was air raided by NATO.
