INSIDES STORY NSIDES STORY RN TO HE OURSELF AND THOSE AROUND YOU Insides Story is a liftout section in each issue of NEXUS New Times which builds up into a self-help healing manual or can be used for wall chart display. In each liftout at least one healing method will be outlined with illustrations; these techniques can all be learned as you use them with a minimal expenditure of time, energy and money. Heat Tuysetr! IRIDOLOGY This issue’s Insides Story liftout chart is all about Iris Diagnosis, or Iridology. Accurate diagnosis is all-important in healing - Iridology provides a self-updating readout of the whole body without chemicals or invasive tests. B efore beginning this article, it’s nec- essary to clarify two terms which are always being confused: Iris diagnosis and Eye diagnosis. These terms are not synonymous. Iris diagnosis is the observation and diagnosis of disease in the body from the iris. Eye diagnosis (or ophthalmoscopy) is the observation and diagnosis of dis- eases affecting the whole eye. Vergrisserte Refenbogenhaut (Jris) THE FIRST CHART TO IRIDOLOGY DEVELOPED AND USED BY IN THE EARLY 1800s. HIstory T he observation of changes on, in and around the eyes is very old - they are found in the works of Hippocrates. The first reference to Iris-diagnosis by aphysician of more recent times is by a 17th century German physician, Phil- lipus Meyens. He observed that irises generally reflect the organisation of the body: inherent strengths or weaknesses of the body. Fine iris structure is associated with inherent strength and coarse iris structure with inherent weakness. To precisely locate iris markings, iri- dologists have incorporated into their iris charts different schemes for organi- sing iris topography. There are over 90 specifically named areas on each eye, so it’s important to have a reliable way of locating these areas. The best way is the use of standard clock divisions from 1 to 12.0’clock with 10 subdivisions between each hour. a sce The upper part of the iris represents For comparison between types we look <7, 2 say geri pd the head, the lower part the leg and geni- upon iris structure as being made upof mate- i ilk y tal areas, the right iris represents organs #1 Weave types; fine, silk, linen, cheese- Th - aie fennel onthe right side of the body andthe left /#» Hessian and net.
