Planetary Herbology (Planetary Herbalism): Integrative system of herbalism forged by Michael Tierra, C.A., N.D., O.M.D., author of the bestseller The Way of Herbs and Planetary Herbology. Tierra dedicated the latter book to all green, growing, flowering ones of this beautiful planet, who embody the universal creative healing energy. In it, he describes herbs partly in terms of energetics and which acupuncture meridian pathways the herbs affect.

Energetics is based on the concepts of:

(a)   energies - e.g., heating, cooling, slightly warm, and neutral; and

(b)  flavors (tastes) - e.g., bland (mildly sweet) and salty.

These concepts stem from TCM and Ayurveda (specifically, tridosha), respectively.

Gemology

In exactly the same manner precious gemstones such as rubies, diamonds, pearls, red corals, sapphires etc. can influence the effects of the planets substantially. Although they can minimise the impact of planetary afflictions, they should always be worn with care and on recommendation of an experienced astrologer. For the wrong stone can aggravate the condition and even cause fresh problems.

biomagnetic therapy (magnetic therapy): Method taught by Michael Tierra (see Planetary Herbology), author of Biomagnetic and Herbal Therapy. Biomagnetic therapy centers on using magnets to treat pain and disease. According to its theory, a magnet's north pole causes contraction and its south pole dissipates energy. Biomagnetic therapy is usable to move Qi and to balance bodily energy. It appears identical to magnet therapy.
