                           NO. 19A.--A MENTAL CASE

   Female, born June 12, 1897, 9:00 P.M.

   WE  have at all times tried to impress upon the minds of students of  the
Rosicrucian  Philosophy the great necessity of always looking at the  bright
side of life,  and ever to hold out hope to unhappy and afflicted ones.   If
we  aspire to be helpers of humanity,  workers in God's great  vineyard,  we
must always throw the life line to the drowning man, that is,  give him that
hope,  that help,  which means life to him.   The astrologer who voices  the
doom of his patient and takes the last ray of hope away when one who is suf-
fering  comes to him perhaps as the last resort is little less than  a  mur-
derer.  This may be putting it very strongly, but the writer feels that this
point cannot be emphasized too much.

   To illustrate the danger that lies in the prediction of death:   a  woman
wrote  to Headquarters stating that she had but two more years to live,  for
the astrologers had predicted this.  Would we advise her, she asked, to take

up  the Rosicrucian Philosophy and astrology, and should she go  ahead  with
the school which she had started,  or would it be best to give everything up
and  prepare  herself  or  the coming event, her passing out of the physical

body?  We can assure you that this woman received a letter from Headquarters
that  as  surrounded by strong vibrations which  scattered  effectually  the
thoughts  of death.   As a result of the letter she became a student of  the
Philosophy and is today an  active  and  healthy  woman, destined to reach a


[PAGE 412]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

ripe  old age.   The astrologer who predicted this woman's death might  have
been  guilty of murder,  but fortunately through her coming in contact  with
one  of  our  pupils  who advised her to write  to  Headquarters,  this  was
averted.

   In 19A we have a patient who has so many weak and afflicted planets  that
the  astrologer must use the greatest diplomacy in order to  encourage  her.
On  the first house is the gloomy,  pessimistic Capricorn,  with the  ruler,
Saturn,  in the Midheaven afflicted by the conjunction of the negative,  vi-
sionary,  worrisome moon and the irresponsible and fanatical Uranus;  and to
make it even more unfortunate these three planets are in conjunction in  the
fixed and martial sign of Scorpio, the natural eighth house sign,  the house
of death.   Mercury,  the ruler of the mind,  is in the gloomy and  stubborn
sign of Taurus in opposition to the afflicted planets in Scorpio.   Could we
find anything more unfortunate for mental trouble?  When Taurus is afflicted
he assists Capricorn in magnifying the gloom side of life and increases  his
brooding  over imaginary ills,  so you can imagine the temperament  of  this
poor woman.  She was sadly in need of help.

   Her request for help came to us in November, 1916.   She was at that time
in such a mental state that she had threatened suicide, could do nothing but
weep,  and was surrounded by imaginary troubles.   But she was very faithful
in  writing  her weekly letters and did all possible to cooperate  with  the
healers.  When she requested healing her progressed  Mars  was square to the


[PAGE 413]                                                          INSANITY

radical moon, Uranus, and Saturn in Scorpio, which caused this  mental  dis-
turbance. But fortunately the progressed moon at that time was in 25 degrees
of  Cancer  trine and sextile to the afflicted planets in the 10th  and  5th
houses respectively.   This was the life line that was ready to be thrown to
help her.

   Note  that the artistic harmonious,  and musical radical Venus is in  her
own sign of Taurus,  trine to the reverent and optimistic Jupiter.   The one
window  of  light open to her was this good aspect--music and art.   It  was
necessary  to bring harmony into this poor inharmonious mind,  and  we  pre-
vailed upon her and her friends to provide her with music in the home and to
interest her in art.  At the time of her request for help her progressed sun
was  in  9 degrees and 50 minutes of Cancer,  making a good  aspect  to  the
radical  Venus.   This as the means of saving her reason.   In May 1917  she
wrote  us she was feeling so much better that she did not need the  help  of
the healers any longer.

   Here  we can see what a wonderful work can be done through a true  knowl-
edge of astrology.   Had an unscrupulous astrologer met this woman and  pre-
dicted  suicide,  the danger of which as shown so plainly in the figure,  he
might  have been her murderer.   Therefore, dear friends,  we hope you  will
take this as a lesson to use astrology to help and to heal and not to wound.

   Female, Born January 7, 1868.

   Although  we are unable to predict the dates of crises in her illness  on
account of the lack of the birth hour, still the aspects between the planets
in this woman's chart,  show sufficiently well the nature of the illness and
the yearly crises.  We find the erratic and eccentric Uranus in the psychic
sign of Cancer,  in opposition to Mars,  the planet of impulse and reckless-
ness.   Uranus is also in opposition to the life-given sun and  to  Mercury,
the planet of reason, both placed in the belligerent and violent sign Capri-
corn.   All four of these planets are square by Neptune in Aries,  the  sign
which rules the head and the brain.

   We  find that the benevolent ray of Jupiter is quenched by its  placement
in  the  twelfth  house  sign of Pisces,  indicating  sorrow,  trouble,  and
self-undoing.   There is is conjoined with the saturnine Dragon's  Tail  and
squared by the moon,  the giver of visions and imagination,  making the mind
morbid.   He is also squared by Saturn,  the planet of gloom and melancholy.
As a result of all these adverse,  perverse,  and perverting influences  the
poor woman has always been weakminded, impulsive, reckless, gloomy, erratic,
and visionary.  In the year 1915 matters cam to a crisis when the sun was in
the  twelfth  house  sign  of  Pisces,  ruling  hospitals  and asylums.  The

progressed moon also was there in conjunction with the sun and th  saturnine
Dragon's Tail, and all of them square Saturn, with the result that the woman
as taken violently insane and had to be confined in an asylum, where she has

been ever since.  There has been little or no improvement so far as the men-
tal  condition  is  concerned,  and the condition of physical health is also
delicate.

   It is not a hopeless case, however, for the principal inimical influences
are from cardinal signs, whose  force  is  comparatively soon spent, and the


[PAGE 416]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

remainder  are from common or flexible signs which are subject to  modifica-
tion.  Not that Neptune, the planet of the spiritual mind, is sextile to Ve-
nus,  the planet of music, and to the moon, the planet of impressionability.
Venus  and the moon are trine;  this shows that the native loves  music  and
that  she may be helped by it.   With respect to health we find the moon  in
Gemini,  the sign that rules the lungs, which gives a tendency to  colds  in
the lungs.  Uranus is in Cancer, squared by Neptune and in opposition to the
sun,  Mars,  and Mercury, which shows nervous indigestion,  for Cancer rules
the stomach.   This can be minimized by proper food, and if this can be pro-
vided it will help considerably to clear the mind.

   In dealing with the question of insanity students should remember that it
is a rupture, complete or partial, in the chain of bodies linking the spirit
to the physical vehicle.  When the rupture occurs between the dense body and
the vital body, or between the latter and the desire body, we have the harm-
less  idiot.   When the break is between the desire body and the  mind,  the
reckless, impulsive, and violent desire nature takes charge of the lower ve-
hicle,  and we have the violently raving maniac who must be restrained by  a
straight-jacket and padded cell.   But when the rupture takes place  between
the mind and the spirit,  the cunning and craftiness of the mind exert them-
selves to take charge of the lower personality; an insane person of this or-
der  may  go  about  among  us  for  years  plotting  and scheming with such

consummate cunning that we never suspect him of being abnormal until he car-
ries  out  some diabolical plot and then laughs and glouts  over  the  ruin,
sorrow, and suffering which he has brought upon his victims.

   Male, born January 30th, 1889, at 12 noon.

   THIS horoscope was sent us by the relatives of the native,  with  permis-
sion  to use it as a lesson.   We find some very interesting points  in  it,
which may be of interest in the study of the science of diagnosis.

   Two special points must be taken into consideration in the horoscope of a
patient:   the sign on the Ascendant and Mercury.   The Ascendant shows  the
strength of the personality.  If fixed signs are on the four angles, namely,
the first, fourth, seventh, and tenth cusps, then the patient will be apt to
help  the  healer with his will to overcome disease.   If,  however,  common
signs are on the angles, then the patient is apt to drift with the tide, and
is  prone to lean upon the Invisible Helpers,  expecting them to do all  the
work,  failing  usually  to  do  anything  for  himself.   To  get  the best

cooperation  from the patient it is most necessary that the mind be  willing
to help.   Where there is a weak or a stubborn mind, the patient can do much
to thwart the efforts made in his behalf, as we find in this horoscope.

   Mercury  being in a fixed sign in the tenth house and square  to  Neptune
here gives a most dominating and stubborn mentality.   This is a person  who
will bear no interference or domination from others.

   He has naturally a very devout and religious nature,  but instead of fol-
lowing  the  soul's  ideals,  which  are expressed by Jupiter in Sagittarius


[PAGE 419]                                                          INSANITY

sextile to Mercury in Aquarius,  his stubborn and ambitious mind led him  to
respond to the vibrations of Venus square Jupiter,  Mercury square  Neptune,
and moon square Uranus.

   Venus is exalted in Pisces, the sign of self-undoing, and in the eleventh
house,  square to Jupiter,  which is strong in its own sign of  Sagittarius,
the sign of religion.   This indicates that a woman friend with her flattery
and attention,  signified by Venus, was responsible for leading him from his
religious ideals into negative metaphysical speculation.   In addition,  the
versatile  and restless moon makes a trine to Neptune in the occult  twelfth
house,  which gave him the desire for occult knowledge, but the moon,  being
square to Uranus, led him to his undoing.  A person with the planetary posi-
tions and aspects which we find in this horoscope is not satisfied to follow
instruction or heed the warnings of those who know about occult matters, but
he must needs rush in and investigate for himself.  the sun in the Saturnian
sign of Aquarius in opposition to Saturn in the sign of Leo gives a vein  of
skepticism, a nature which demands evidence and which must prove all things.
This spirit was his undoing.   The sun and Saturn being in mutual  reception
in the tenth and fourth houses respectively, strengthened this tendency.

   With  the  moon  trine  Neptune and  square  Uranus  this  man  developed
mediumship  very quickly and was able to contact the invisible realms.   But
he heedlessly sought his knowledge  along  dangerous  paths.  While the yogi


[PAGE 420]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

teachings  may be safe for the Fourth Race people,  the orientals,  and  for
those  of the Western races who are still on the lower rounds of  evolution,
yet  to one of the sensitive Western type these oriental teachings are  most
dangerous.  This poor man became attached to a group of Hindus, from whom he
received instructions in breathing exercises and psychic development.  He as
also active in spiritualism wherein mediumship was encouraged.

   After  a  few  years the progressed moon reached the  opposition  to  the
radical  Saturn and later a conjunction with the radical Mercury.   Neptune,
being  the higher octave of Mercury, works largely upon the nervous  system,
and  any undue stimulation will sometimes cause mental unbalance if  Neptune
squares the mental planet Mercury, often expressing itself through religious
mania.   This poor man repeatedly claims that he is the reincarnated  Jesus.
Especially will Neptune give this tendency when in the twelfth house,  where
it often causes incarceration in an institution for the insane.  The moon in
the ninth house in Capricorn,  square to Uranus,  here increased the evil by
attracting  undesirable  entities to this already weakened mind,  which  was
easily driven out of the body, giving the obsessing entities freedom to take
possession of it.

   To top off this most unfortunate condition the poor man,  who has been in
an insane asylum for some years,  is slowly dying of that dread disease  tu-
berculosis.  This is shown by Jupiter in Sagittarius (Jupiter ruling the ar-
terial blood) square to Venus (which has rule over the venous blood) in  Pi-
sces, two common signs.

   WE  find the fiery sign of Sagittarius on the Ascendant,  and its  ruler,
Jupiter,  at home in Pisces.   This planet is at home in two  signs,  Sagit-
tarius and Pisces.  When planets are posited in the 1st, 4th, 7th,  and 10th
houses,  their influence is much more potent, much stronger for  either good
or  evil  than elsewhere,  and especially if they are in fixed signs  or  in
their own homes.  Jupiter is in its own home and in the 4th house, an angle,
and  rules the arterial blood.   It is in square aspect to the  fiery  Mars,
which is in the sign of the lungs,  Gemini.   Mercury,  the ruler of Gemini,
ruling  the air passing through the lungs,  is in conjunction with the  sun,
and  these two planets are in the fiery sign of Leo ruling the  heart.   Now
that would be the physical effect of the two afflictions noted above?

   It  is necessary that a certain amount of air be taken into the lungs  in
order  to supply the oxygen which is needed to give life to the blood  which
feeds the heart.   With the ruler of Gemini, Mercury,  burned up by the heat
of the sun and the capillaries of the lungs filled with the fire of the  fe-
verish and afflicted Mars, we have a congested and  feverish  chest, and the

blood is clogged and becomes sluggish, causing spasmodic action as it passes
through the aorta.  The lungs become feverish and breathing laborious, caus-
ing spasms.   We find Mars parallel to Saturn,  which is in the sign of  the
stomach, Cancer, and i the 8th house, indicating poor  assimilation  of  the

food.   We find the planet Venus, which rules the venous circulation, in the
hot and fiery sign of Leo in opposition to the spasmodic retrograde  Uranus,
which is strong in its own sign Aquarius, giving uneven action to the heart.

   This boy will suffer more or less all through life with what is  commonly
termed by the doctors,  asthma.   The first few years he suffered very  much
from spasms.  He will also be subject to coughs and colds, which will,  how-
ever, never develop into consumption as is often the case.  With Mars ruling
the lungs there is frequently a congested,  feverish condition in the capil-
laries  which  burns  up the oxygen.   But here Mars is in  sextile  to  the
life-giving  sum in Leo,  hence this boy will recuperate very  rapidly.   He
will be above the average in health in spite of the many afflictions, and he
will reach a ripe old age.

   WE will judge first the character of this person and for this purchase we
note that there are four cardinal signs on the angles.  This is a great help
toward  making  people mentally alert and well balanced,  but  unfortunately
here we find that mercury, the significator of the mind is combust,  and the
moon is in conjunction with Saturn.   This renders the mind slow and  melan-
choly,  subject to fears, which of course never materialize.   Uranus is el-
evated and square to Neptune,  which gives a tendency toward spirit control,
but we have the trine of the sun to Neptune to minimize the danger.  The na-
tive  has a strong love nature as shown  by the trine of Venus and  Jupiter,
but  the conjunction of moon and Saturn shows that the marriage  partner  is
likely always to wet-blanket and resent advances.   Mars opposition  Neptune
from the first to the seventh house makes it plain that there will be  quar-
rels and trouble,  all of which have an important bearing upon the  sickness
and its cause.

   The  sun  in leo afflicted by Jupiter in Taurus shows that  the  arterial
circulation is poor, a condition which is somewhat minimized by the trine of
Jupiter and Venus,  the two planets which govern the circulation.   But  the
rhythmic  motion of respiration is seriously interfered with because  Uranus
is  in  Cancer  and  elevated.  This  planet  is spasmodic in its action and

affects the diaphragm when placed in Cancer.   Here it is,  as said,  highly
elevated  and square to Mars and Neptune,  both in angles,  a  configuration
that  is  very  strong.  The  rhythmic  rise  and  fall  of the diaphragm is

[PAGE 426]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

long time without sleep because of their inability to lie down.  Morphine is
often  given  to relieve their condition and give them the rest  they  crave
with  all their being.   The danger of this drug cannot be overestimated  in
any  case,  but it is greater for a patient who has Jupiter  in  Taurus  af-
flicted by the sun like this one, for this always gives an inherent abnormal
appetite,  a tendency to go to extremes in whatever is taken by way  of  the
mouth.   Hence it is no wonder that this person has become addicted  to  the
use of morphine.

   There is hope,  however,  as shown by the horoscope.   The moon rules the
alimentary canal and is responsible for the passage of the food through  the
digestive  tract.   She is conjunct Saturn, and naturally this results in  a
sluggish condition of the bowels.   Uranus in Cancer operates upon the stom-
ach in such a way as to distend it periodically.  With a full colon,  a dis-
tended  stomach,  and the diaphragm moving erratically what wonder that  the
heart refuses to force the vital fluid into the lungs and take it from them?
Heroic methods should be taken to clear the system and keep it clear.  While
this will not relieve the spasmodic action of the diaphragm,  it will at any
rate  take the pressure away from the apex of the heart and thus  materially
help to reduce the condition.   Mars is sextile to the sun,  therefore,  the
heart  can be strengthened.   He is also sextile to Saturn showing the  pos-
sibility of securing at least better action and circulation in the digestive
tract.

   The  worst condition in this horoscope, the one most difficult  to  over-
come,  is Jupiter in Taurus square to the sun.   It has been our  experience
that  even though it is pointed out to people that they have abnormal  appe-
tites and they acknowledge it,  they usually refuse to mend their ways.   As
the above affliction is in fixed signs, it is exceedingly difficult to over-
come.  The best assistance, however, would be from the trine of Venus to Ju-
piter,  which excites the love nature and makes the native amenable to kind-
liness.  The tender care of a woman would perhaps do more than anything else
to help him overcome the habit he has formed.  A healer with Aquarius rising
and whose Saturn is not in Pisces would very likely have a beneficial effect
in this case.

                           NO. 20C--D--E:  ASTHMA

   The disease designated by the name of asthma is one of the most difficult
to diagnose, for many are suffering from symptoms which are diagnosed by the
doctors as those of asthma because of the shortness of breath, wheezing, and
coughing when frequently the person does not in reality have asthma.   There
are various kinds of this disease.  For instance there is hay asthma,  which
comes in the fall of the year when the hay and grain are ripe.  Sometimes it
comes from the noxious pollen of poisonous flowers,  which causes a contrac-
tion  of  the passages to the lungs;  these when inactive fill  with  mucus,
causing labored breathing.  Then we have the heart or stomach asthma,  which
is often the result of irregularity of the blood flow through the valves  of
the heart,  resulting in labored breathing and contraction of the chest  and
lungs.  Therefore the astrologer may find the diagnosis difficult.

   We will in this lesson endeavor to give a few helps showing according  to
the  afflictions the differences in diseases which may have similar  outward
symptoms but the causes of which may be different.

   Case 20C is that of a man born March 6, 1831,  4 P.M.   The horoscope for
this case is 10A, page 263.  We find the disturbing Saturn in Leo,  the sign
ruling the heart,  square to Mars in Taurus, which has rule over the throat,
and opposition  to  Mercury, which is in the nervous sign of Aquarius.  Mars


[PAGE 429]                                                            ASTHMA

is  also square to Mercury and parallel to Neptune.   This configuration  of
planets in fixed signs,  would indicate spasmodic heart action,  for Mercury
opposition  Saturn  would  cause contraction of the  valves  of  the  heart,
thereby interfering with the excessive blood flow caused by Mars square Sat-
urn.   We also find the sun in Pisces, a common sign,  square to the moon in
Sagittarius.   Common signs when afflicted interfere with the organs of res-
piration,  given a tendency to trouble with the lungs.   This  man  suffered
greatly  with  what  some doctors diagnosed as asthma and  others  as  heart
trouble, and he also frequently suffered from severe colds.  Astrology shows
that  he  had  valvular heart trouble and that is was not  a  true  case  of
asthma.   He died from an abscess of the liver.   For details regarding this
condition see No. 10A.

   In the case of horoscope 20D, that of a man born August 25, 1867, we find
Saturn  in Scorpio,  a fixed sign,  square to Venus and Mercury in Leo,  the
sign ruling the heart.   We again find some trouble with poor heart  action;
but the most disturbing affliction is found in th stomach,  for the moon and
Uranus  are in conjunction in the sign of Cancer,  which has rule over  this
organ,  and  both  are square to the inflammatory Mars,  Uranus  also  being
square  to Neptune,  all in cardinal signs.   In this horoscope we find  the
seat of the trouble in the stomach,  showing impulsive and unnatural  habits
regarding food, with a tendency to bolt the food and also excessive drinking


[PAGE 430]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

with  meals,  which  would cause the stomach to  become  distended,  thereby
pressing upon the heart and interfering with respiration.

   In horoscope 20E,  that  of  a  woman  born June 23, 1898, we find a very

different  cause,  and we may diagnose this as a real case  of  hay  asthma.
Neptune  is conjunction Mercury in the sign of Gemini,  which has rule  over
the lungs.  From the indications of personal appearance we should think that
this young woman had Virgo rising with  Gemini  in Midheaven, giving Mercury

as the life ruler.   Neptune,  being the higher octave of Mercury,  has rule
over  the  nervous  system.   Neptune's influence  is  similar  to  that  of
Saturn--constricting,   astringent.    When  in  Gemini,  we  may  expect  a

disturbance in the bronchioles, especially during the summer months,  as was
the case with this young woman,  whose trouble was caused by the  inhalation
of the pollen of certain grasses and flowers.

   You will, however, find that in  most  cases  of asthma there is impaired


[PAGE 432]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

circulation.   The blood stream is sluggish,  showing an affliction to Venus
or Jupiter.  When the blood is impure, elimination will also be sluggish.

   Great care should be used in the selection of food.   The patient  should
eat  very lightly and only such foods as are easily digested but which  give
the proper nourishment.   Especially is this true of the evening meals,  for
attacks of asthma invariably follow a heavy meal at night.   Raw onion sand-
wiches  eaten the last thing at night and cut the phlegm and insure a  sound
sleep.

   Sagittarius, a common sign, is on the Ascendant, and the life ruler,  Ju-
piter  is in the 9th house in the sign of Virgo;  Jupiter is also square  to
the Ascendant.  People with common signs on the four angles rarely make suf-
ficient effort to surmount the obstacles of life,  and when we also find the
afflicting planets in these common signs,  and the sun in the watery sign of
Cancer  an in the 8th house,  we have as in the case of this woman  one  who
would rather be an invalid than make the effort to keep the body in  health,
and we can see how weak the effort will be to overcome.

   First,  people  with  the sun and moon in Cancer are very  fond  of  good
things to eat,  and when the moon is also trine to Venus this enhances their
love for food and there is a tendency to overeat.   Let us see what will  be
the result.

   We find the planet Venus,  which has rule over the venous blood,  in  the
sign of Gemini, and in the 7th house, square to the inflammatory Mars and to
Jupiter.  Jupiter, which has rule over the arterial blood, is afflicted by a

conjunction  of Mars,  hence the circulation is very much obstructed,  espe-
cially as Jupiter is in the sign of Virgo, which has rule over the small in-
testine.   When the patient eats very heartily (especially as Cancer  people
are  very fond  of  starches),  with  the  obstructed  circulation  and  the

disturbed assimilation of food in the small intestine what may we expect but
that the bowels are filled with putrid matter.  Fermentation set in, causing
derangement of the entire circulatory system.   Saturn,  the obstructor,  in
conjunctionn  with Uranus in the sign of Scorpio,  which has rule  over  the
rectum,  and in the 12th house, the house of self-undoing, also the house of
hidden things,  is an indication that the young woman had formed secret hab-
its which caused much irritation to the organs of elimination and which  had
their result in causing cancer of the rectum.

   She was ailing for a long time with dreadful pains across the lower  bow-
els and at the lower end of the spinal column.   The question may be  asked,
Is  there not a cure for this dread disease of cancer?   Yes,  when  in  its
first stages, it may be cured by eliminating all food for a few days, drink-
ing  only pure,  distilled water flavored with lemon juice,  and giving  the
bowels  a  thorough  cleansing  with  high  enemas.   Then  start  with  the
mono-diet,  continuing this for three weeks if the patient is able to  stand
it,  but not to exceed three weeks.  The patient should eat nothing but car-
rots.   This vegetable may be prepared in various ways to make it palatable,
grinding it and drinking the juice,  baking or steaming it or making it into
salads  flavored with a little olive oil and lemon.   The carrot has a  pro-
nounced  healing effect,  especially when used as a poultice,  and it has  a
wonderful healing power for ulcer and cancerous growths.

   Male,  born December 14, 1857.  Place and hour of birth unknown, but from
personal  appearance and traits of character we have placed  Sagittarius  on
the Ascendant.  Planets' positions for noon, G.M.T.

   THE doctors had told this man that he had cancer, and nothing could shake
his belief that he would some day pass out with the dread disease.   He kept
up  his letters to the Healing Department regularly for several months,  but
they were always filled with doubt of our methods and discouragement regard-
ing the future.  He also rebelled at the restrictions in diet, claiming that
he was too weak and sick to live without his daily beefsteak and fried pota-
toes.

   Later through the instrumentality of his son,  who was working in our of-
fice  as stenographer,  this man with his wife rented a cottage on  a  tract
which adjoined the Headquarters grounds.   In order to make it possible  for
his father to partake of the health diet served in our dining hall,  the son
applied for a job as gardener for his father.

   The first few weeks this poor man as a great trial to the cook.   When he
failed to get what he demanded, he left the table hungry.  This lasted for a
few days until hunger forced him to eat what was served.   His demands  were
for two eggs fried in butter, a large bowl of soft, boiled mush with several
teaspoons  of  sugar  and  plenty of cream, fried potatoes, white bread, and

two or three cups of strong, black coffee with several teaspoons of sugar in
each.   The sugar bowl was emptied at each meal.   He greatly tried the  pa-
tience  of  both  Mr. Heindel  and  myself.  But  the  young  son,  who  had

supported  his father for a number of years was desperately anxious to  help
us to help the latter.  After a few weeks the patient adjusted himself,  and
immediately his health began to improve.   The eruptions on his face and his
breast began slowly to disappear, and his general health and strength  began


[PAGE 438]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

to return.

   During  the day it was observed that he was constantly eating candy;  his
pockets were filled with this sweet.  Before coming to Headquarters he would
eat one to two pounds of candy every day,  and thought it necessary to do so
to keep up his strength.

   We note the conjunction of the moon and Venus just above the Ascendant in
the negative sign of Sagittarius.   The moon and Venus conjoined,  no matter
where they may be in the horoscope, give a desire for sweets, pastry, etc.

   In  this case we find Saturn posited in the sign of the stomach,  Cancer,
and  retrograde  to a square aspect with Mars,  which is placed in  a  Venus
sign.  this man had for years filled his body with an excess of starch, pro-
tein,  and sugar.  With his afflicted progressed Saturn in Cancer he was not
able  to  extract the vitamines from his food,  and he was in the  habit  of
overeating and of bolting it.  Naturally the body stores up excess amount of
food  taken.   His  stomach refused to digest such quantities  of  food,  or
rather was too weak and lacking in the juices necessary in digestion.  There
was also a large amount of waste matter which the organs of elimination were
unable  to throw off.   Mars has rule over the rectum,  being the  ruler  of
Scorpio  which governs this organ.   With Mars afflicted by the  obstructive
progressed  Saturn we might expect that the man would suffer from  constipa-
tion.

   With  all  this  ash  stored up in the body can we wonder that the system


[PAGE 439]                                                            CANCER

has to find some means of throwing out this poison?  The result was that the
skin of the nose, throat, face and breast (Mars ruling Aries the face, Scor-
pio the bridge of the nose,  and Saturn in Cancer the breast) was used as  a
dumping ground for the body waste.  After eight months of Mt.  Ecclesia diet
this man moved back to the city with not a trace of cancer on his body;  all
sores had entirely healed.   Mars sextile to the life-giving sun brought vi-
tality.  Wherever a good aspect between these two planets is found, there is
great hope of overcoming disease.

   Saturn in Cancer in the eighth house, the house of death, will eventually
be  the case of the native's demise,  together with the moon and Venus in  a
common sign and in the house of self-undoing.  In time his desire for sweets
and rich food will probably lead to excesses which will be the cause of  his
death.

                     HOW THE ROSICRUCIANS HEAL THE SICK

   THE  Rosicrucian work of healing is carried on by the Elder  Brothers  of
the Rosicrucian Order through a band of Invisible Helpers whom they are  in-
structing.

   The work is conducted according to the commands of Christ Jesus,  namely,
"Preach the gospel and heal the sick."

                             THE ELDER BROTHERS

   These are high spiritual beings through whom the Christ Spirit is working
for the benefit of humanity.

                            THE INVISIBLE HELPERS

   The  Invisible  Helpers are those who live a worthy life  of  helpfulness
during  the daytime while in their physical bodies,  and whose  evolutionary
development  is such as to EARN the privilege of being helpful  through  the
instrumentality of the  Elder  Brothers  at night while functioning in their


[PAGE 441]                                               ROSICRUCIAN HEALING

etheric  bodies,  as indicated in the words of the Rosicrucian Evening  Ser-
vice:   "Tonight while our physical bodies are peacefully resting in  sleep,
may  we as Invisible Helpers be found faithfully working in the vineyard  of
Christ."   These Invisible Helpers are gathered together in bands  according
to their temperaments and their abilities.   They are under the  instruction
of other Helpers WHO ARE PHYSICIANS, and all of them work under the guidance
of  the Elder Brothers,  who naturally are the moving spirits of  the  whole
work.

   Not  infrequently  patients are aware of the presence  of  the  Invisible
Helpers.

                      RIGHT LIVING NECESSARY FOR A CURE

   The Invisible Helpers never refuse to answer an appeal for help,  but  in
order to respond to the Divine Healing Force patients must adopt the  gospel
of right living;  they should observe a pure meatless diet;  they must  fill
their  living  and  sleeping  rooms with pure air,  their  minds  with  pure
thoughts and their daily lives with pure actions.   The Divine Healing Force
is  pure;  if you ask for it in order to be relieved of your  ailments,  you
must  be willing to conform to the natural laws of purity.   Pure air,  pure
food,  pure thinking and pure living!  If you ignore these great health giv-
ing factors you may have called in vain upon the Divine Healing Force.


[PAGE 442]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

                                HEALING FORCE

   The healing force comes from God, our Heavenly Father,  the Great  Physi-
cian of the universe;  it is latent everywhere;  by prayer and concentration
it is liberated and directed to the sufferer; it manifested through the Mas-
ter,  Christ Jesus;  it goes forth from the weekly healing meetings held  at
the Rosicrucian Fellowship Headquarters.   Through the workings of this  su-
preme  force the Invisible Helpers raise the vibrations of the patient to  a
higher rate,  thus enabling him, first, to eliminate the disease poison from
the system, and second, to rebuild every blood corpuscle, fibre, tissue, and
organ until the whole body is made new.   This is done,  not in a miraculous
manner  but in accordance with nature's laws.   If the patient continues  to
break these laws and by a wrong mode of living to accumulate poisonous  sub-
stances in the system, he frustrates the healing work.

                              CAUSE OF DISEASE

   The  wonderful  organism called the human body is governed  by  immutable
natural  laws.   All disease results from willful or ignorant  violation  of
nature's laws.   People are ill because in this earth life or in a  previous
one they have disregarded the fundamental principles on which the health  of
the body depends.   If they wish to regain and to retain their health,  they
must learn to understand these principles and to regulate their daily habits
in conformity with them.


[PAGE 443]                                               ROSICRUCIAN HEALING

   This is what the Master Healer,  Christ Jesus,  meant when he said to the
man who was a cripple:   "Thou art made whole:   sin no more,  lest a  worse
thing come unto thee."  (John 5-14.)  Even the Christ could not give lasting
health  unless the recipient of the healing force refrained  from  indulging
wrong  habits which cause disease,  and lived in obedience to the  God-given
laws that rule man's body as well as his relations to his fellow creatures.


                             THE RIGHT TO HEALTH

   Some  people "demand"  perfect health and claim they have a right to  it.
They  forget that either in this or a former life some have forfeited  their
God-given right through disobedience to nature's laws, which are God's laws.
Through  suffering they have to learn obedience.   When they  have  mastered
their lesson and are willing to "sin no more," their right to health will be
restored to them.

                      VIOLATIONS OF THE LAWS OF HEALTH

   The Divine Healing Force is constructive;  wrong methods of living  which
disregard the laws of nature are destructive.

   The omissions and transgressions responsible for wrong living and  conse-
quently  for disease are many;  the following are the principal  ones:   Un-
natural food;  too much food;  ill-proportioned food;  lack of fresh air and
sunshine;  lack of cleanliness;  lack of exercise;  lack of rest and  sleep;
lack of self-control; sleeping in unventilated  rooms; harboring thoughts of


[PAGE 444]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

anger,  hatred,  and resentment; yielding to a hasty temper;  gratifying low
desires;  harming fellow creatures whether human or animal;  abusing the sa-
cred generative function.

   Since  all the organs and functions of the body are  interdependent,  the
abuse  and consequent affliction of one part hurts all the others,  furthers
the accumulation of disease poison throughout the system, and lowers the vi-
tality of the whole.  The local symptoms are only evidence of the whole body
being at fault.   Therefore,  all true healing,  in order to achieve lasting
results,  is directed not to the suppression of symptoms but to the  removal
of the cause that made the symptoms appear.


                              SPIRITUAL HEALING

   Spiritual healing operates on the higher planes of being but is  effected
in  strict  adherence to natural laws which prevail below as  above;  conse-
quently all natural therapeutics applied on the physical plan are in harmony
with the work of the Invisible Helpers on the higher planes.

                       RIGHT FOOD IS NATURAL MEDICINE

   As  the body is built up of the physical substances introduced  into  the
blood  by the daily food,  right food is the NATURAL medicine which the  pa-
tient  must take in order to cooperate with the Invisible Helpers  in  their
task of reconstructing his system.


[PAGE 445]                                               ROSICRUCIAN HEALING

                    EFFLUVIA TRANSMITTED IN WEEKLY REPORT

   Before the Invisible Helpers can work with the patient they must have ef-
fluvia from his vital body, which is the etheric counterpart of the physical
body  and the operating sphere of the vital forces.   The effluvia  are  ob-
tained  by having the patient write every week a letter consisting of a  few
words or a few lines with PEN AND INK.   This is important as a pen  charged
with fluid is a greater conductor of magnetism than a dry pencil.  The ether
which thus impregnates the paper upon which the patient writes week by  week
gives  an indication of his condition at that particular time and  furnishes
an entrance key to his system.  IT IS SOMETHING WHICH HE HAS GIVEN VOLUNTAR-
ILY AND FOR THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF FURNISHING ACCESS FOR THE INVISIBLE HELP-
ERS.   Unless the patient does his part to do anything for him; so it may be
seen  that it is of the utmost importance to keep up the weekly  letters  to
Headquarters.

                           TIME REQUIRED FOR CURE

   Instantaneous  cures are frequent where the Invisible Helpers are  called
upon to assist in cases of acute disease.   In the case of a chronic ailment
which is of long standing and has taken years to develop,  a certain  amount
of relief may be experienced immediately; complete recovery, however,  which
is equivalent to a renewal of the whole system, can usually be achieved only


[PAGE 446]                                ASTRO-DIAGNOSIS A GUIDE TO HEALING

in gradual stages.   As said before, the healing work of the Invisible Help-
ers  is not suppression of symptoms but reconstruction of the whole  system,
and  in order to be accomplished it requires time as well as  the  patient's
faithful and constant cooperation along the lines indicated above.

                      HEALING MEETINGS AT HEADQUARTERS

   Healing meetings are held at Rosicrucian Headquarters on the nights  when
the moon enters cardinal signs in the zodiac.   The hour of service is about
6:30  P.M.   The virtue of the cardinal signs is dynamic energy  which  they
infuse  into every enterprise started under their influence,  and  therefore
the  healing  thoughts of the helpers all over the world  are  endowed  with
added  power when launched upon their errands of mercy under  this  cardinal
influence.

   If you would like to join in this work,  sit down quiet when the clock IN
YOUR  PLACE OF RESIDENCE points to the given hour,  6:30 P.M.,  meditate  on
HEALTH,  and pray to the Great Physician, our Father in Heaven, for the res-
toration to health of all who suffer, particularly those who have applied to
Headquarters.

   At the same time visualize the Ecclesia,  the healing Temple at Headquar-
ters,  where the thoughts of all aspirants are finally gathered by the Elder
Brothers and used for the stated purpose.
