Physical Astrology & Planetary Energetics:

supreme knowledge for everyone

Copyright © by Judith, 2021

The original and first concept of planetary influence was “energetic”. By this, we mean “hot, cold, dry, moist”, and their conceptual ramifications of “warm, cool, tense, relaxed, stimulating, slow, fast”. We can also borrow a tip from the herbalists by assigning functional property to each planet and zodiacal sign such as: “demulcent” (soothing, softening), “cathartic” (expulsive from colon), “cholagogue” (bile stimulating), “diuretic” (stimulates urination), etc. Planets and signs also have these same functions on the body! For example, Mars because Mars tosses outward, he is profoundly cathartic, diuretic, diaphoretic (sweat producing). Venus’s influence is relaxing, analgesic (pain relieving), and our quintessential demulcent.

It is no accident that the tiny Isle of Kos hosted both Hippocrates’ medical school (400 BC) and Berossus’ astrological school (280BC)! These two sciences arose together, walking pleasantly hand in hand in the garden of the Hellenistic era.

The physical and energetic conceptualization of planetary influence came long before our popular modern (and useful!) psycho-spiritual techniques. Ancient astrologers discovered that the planetary rays possessed observable physical influences, (and so can you!). The ancient astrologers knew that planetary sign and house placement possessed medical potentials, as well as providing general “fortunate” and “unfortunate” indices; plus “signification” by planetary affinity, i.e. “what things, foods, people does each planet signify”? Thus, Venus is given to peaches because they are luscious and sweet, like her!

Physical astrology was never an exclusively physical affair! In ancient through Renaissance astrology, the various mental illnesses were also classified according to energetics! For instance, mania proceeded from an excess of Mars and fire signs -“choler”. Melancholia (depression) was associated with excess Water, being cold and moist (phlegmatic), and/or Earth, being cold and dry (melancholic). Simplified: Mania is hot and dry, and depression is either cold/dry or cold/wet. Mental illness were divided into four basic categories and also by planet.

In ancient and Renaissance times, ’planetary energetics’ was conceived as preemptive to psychological manifestations! Certainly, astrological consultants of all stripes would greatly benefit their practice by understanding the temperature, color and function of the cosmic rays.

The birth of psychology stimulated a hard right turn for astrology into purely psychological models. This occurred in part, because the prominent and inordinately influential early twentieth century British astrologer Alan Leo encouraged his minions to do exactly this - to avoid the arrests and imprisonment he endured under the British “Vagrancy Laws”, applicable to astrologers: (1914, first arrest; 1917 second arrest and imprisonment). Apparently, the use of the chart as a psychological counseling device excluded arrest! Hence a new era began for astrology, heralding in significant leaps forward in our psychological understanding of birth charts. Regretfully, the practical knowledge of planetary energetics has nearly been lost!

It is time to bring it back. To facilitate this, I’m introducing an online monthly forecast and tutorial as an entertaining and affordable method for all levels to achieve a greater awareness of planetary energetics and physical astrology. This is an easy and fun way to learn Physical Astrology and Planetary Energetics!

Quote of the Month


Disease may be classed under two heads, latent and active. ‘Symptoms’ give indication of disease which is in process of materializing. Latent tendencies to disease are shown by the planetary afflictions in the horoscope of birth. In some instances these tendencies may remain latent during the entire life because the native has lived in such a manner that no strain was put on the body which would give the planets a chance to develop their latent weakness. If there is a weak link in a chain but no strain is put upon it, the chain will remain whole.
