Medical Astrology includes herbs and plants that work together with your birth zodiac signs. This also includes solstices and the moon cycle phases.
What Zodiac Herb relates to your Astrologer Natal Birth Sign? Wellness & Medical Astrology.
Did you know that your Zodiac sign in astrology works with the plants around you? According to history texts and healers that a plant and or herb can work better if it’s under your own natal birth zodiac sign for wellness astrology aka medical astrology.
Sounds like this could make sense to you? Then let’s find out what type of herb and or plant works the best for you?
Medical astrology works in many ways however, for herbs this is mainly for your sun sign and or rising sign. The plants may work more depending on the astrology of that time for you as well. Also, the moon phases , solar eclipses, lunar eclipses and seasonal solstices can make a difference. But, for this article I am going to just describe the very basics.
Herbs and plants, the growing process in itself can make a big difference. Is the herb wild, growing with pesticides a garden or bought at the local grocery store. This will make a huge impact on the potency for healing getting the most substance. Is the herbal plant from a seed that is a GMO or Non-GMO or Heirloom Seeds *The Best Natural Seeds*! Also, make sure they are not by the roads of any kind due to chemicals leaching into the soil. Lastly, it depends on the growing season. Where I’m at most of the time in the summer Red Clovers start blooming in June and by the beginning of July they are completely dried up. However, this year we had a lot of water and in October the Red Clovers are still blooming! Amazing!
Let’s Get started in the fun part now! What is your Sun Sign or Rising Sign! If you know your date of birth then you can figure out your Sun Sign. But to know your rising sign you will need to know your time of birth into this realm. See below of some links that can calculate your astrology birth natal chart. Also, there are different astrology types out there the main ones are tropical astrology and sidereal astrology. I have added both links depending on which type you follow. They will result in completely different rising and sun signs. I myself use both as a way to decode myself because each type of astrology does relate in one way or another. It’s actually quite interesting!
