A decumbiture chart, taken from the time a patient ‘takes to their bed’ (Latin decumbere, to lie down), is a traditional technique used in medical astrology to help discover the causes of an illness and to ascertain if the treatment is working and whether recovery is likely. Very few of us have the luxury of taking to our beds these days but the time for a doctor’s appointment or the onset of a fever for example are equally valid and the resulting chart can be very informative. Wanda Sellar teaches the techniques in a clear and easily understandable format then demonstrates their use in a wide variety of case histories.
An eBook version is available through the usual online sellers: iBooks, Nook, Googlebooks and Amazon.
