Father of Modern Medical Science, Hippocrates based his knowledge of medicine on the science of Astrology, which is evident from the many quotes that can be found in his diary.
By studying his diary one can find many principles of Astrology which he compiled for the purpose of use in medical profession. The most important among many such principles of Hippocrates is “Touch not with iron that part of body ruled by the sign that Moon is transiting.” It means one must not perform a surgical procedure with iron knife or scissors upon a part of the patients body which is ruled by the Astrological sign through which the moon is passing at that time.
According to Hippocrates, and proven repeatedly in surgery disobeying this law will inevitably result in one of the three failures for any surgery performed at a wrong time:
1) Complication including infection.
2) Unusually slow and painful healing.
3) Fatality (though it’s rare).
Therefore the wisest choice to avoid a well known medical explanation like ‘The operation was a success but the patient died’ is to observe the wisdom and warnings laid by Hippocrates, the father of medicine, who himself had a very good knowledge of Astrology.
