Taste
and the Elements
As anyone who has ever consumed a hot curry soup
knows, such meals can really stimulate the sinuses to drain. In
fact, such draining, called errhine therapy, is a recognized Ayurvedic
mode of treatment for phlegmatic conditions. Foods and spices,
along with special culinary and medicinal herbs, can be used to
help balance the elements.  Such
therapies can be effectively used in conjunction with astrology
(or independently thereof) if the consultant is qualified. Since
this is one of those therapies that interfaces readily with astrology
and since my own Jupiter in Cancer predisposes me to a love of
cooking and this particular form of chemistry, a special
section is being added to this site to enable visitors to understand
the energetics of eating.

Based on the Ayurvedic tenet
that taste is a clue to the pharmacology of food, Ingrid relates
the six tastes: sweet, sour, spicy, bitter, salty, and astringent
to the elements and constitutional balance. The system is so
logical and clearly presented that anyone hearing these tapes
can immediately begin applying the ideas so as to enhance physical
harmony. The relationship of physical and psychological health
is also developed to a considerable extent.
