First steps to taking cell salts for your astrological sign

If you haven't already find out what your astrological chart is. This includes your son sign which most people are familiar with and also your rising or ascendant sign and moon sign. You will need your location of birth and time of birth to determine your rising and moon sign. There are plenty of free websites and applications to find out this information. We recommend Chani Nicholas to find out your chart. Once you have this information, look up each corresponding cell salt that relates to your sun sign, your ascendant sign, and your moon sign.

Consider starting with your rising or ascendant cell salt

H.L. Cornell speaks of the ascendant (rising) sign’s importance in health in his Encyclopaedia of Medical Astrology,

"[The ascendant sign,] determines largely the physical appearance, description of the body, height, weight, the degree of vitality, etc., and is very important to study in connection with health and disease.”

Compare all three cell salts and reflect on which one matches the health challenges you want to address most. It's possible that you will find similarities between your health and each of the different cell salts indicated in your astrological chart. That is OK. Take a moment to consider the set of symptoms that are most bothersome to you either on a daily basis or over the last week. That is the one that you start with.

It is also possible that none of the cell salts in your astrological chart match your unique set of health circumstances. In that case if you're still wanting to try cell salts go for the traditional approach and the original approach for determining cell salts and look at all 12 cell salts to see which one matches your set of circumstances the best.
