But in the practice of alchemical medicine\u2014based on Paracelsianism\u2014 and in astro-herbalism, another approach is commonly used: sympathetic medicine. In this episode, we\u2019ll explore some of the principles of sympathetic medicine, how it differs from the antipathetic approach, and how we can work with it to deepen our understanding of plant to planet correspondences.   Here\u2019s an overview of what you\u2019ll learn: The key differences between sympathetic and antipathetic medicine How to think through planetary correspondences in plants and more importantly, in practice The various layers of herbal sympathy to planets such as organ affinities, energetics, and herbal actions How herbs can paradoxically embody both sympathetic AND antipathetic qualities to a singular planetary force Refining clinical application through the Triune System   Warning: this is a slightly more advanced discussion relating to astro-herbalism and planetary correspondences in plants.
