1677. Richard Saunders was an astrologer/physician in 17th century
England. It is one of the earliest astro-medical treatises in the
English language. This is a comprehensive and demanding text on
medical astrology. Included are rules for decumbiture charts,
illnesses produced by the traditional planets in the various signs
of the zodiac, when to administer medicines based on planetary
hours, and much more. This is also a first hand account of life,
death and medicine in the 16th and 17th centuries, with many
surprising details. Includes numerous herbal remedies and medieval
medical techniques. Introductions by his contemporaries William
Lilly, John Gadbury, Henry Coley and others. Definitely one of the
great astrology books. Due to the age and scarcity of the original
we reproduced, some pages may be spotty, faded or difficult to
read.
