The signature of the planet Mercury in plants

Summary

• Plant sap tests made at the times of constellations of the planet Mercury show cup forms which are comparable with those that can be produced by adding mercury salts in solution to the gold reagent.

• The cup form appears to be specific to the planet Mercury and the metal of the same name.

• This connection is demonstrable only as it works in plant saps.

• The cup forms appear prior to constellations, disappear during their course and reappear afterwards. These events seem to enhance the forces of the planet.

• In cases of doubt, the “true” moment of a constellation can be determined from the plant test.

• Constellations are never repeated under the same circumstances in the heavens. Because of this, variations appear each time in the pictures, and the duration of planetary influence on the plant also varies.

• Some conditions are favourable, other unfavourable for the observation of the Mercury influence.

• Many years' observation of how the world of the stars is reflected in mistletoe sap makes it possible to forecast the probable quality of the sap from plants picked at a future date, so that the most favourable days may be chosen for gathering mistletoe for therapeutic use.

Favourable as a rule are: constellations that take place when they can run their course undisturbed by others, and also the times when the planet is at elevation.

Unfavourable as a rule: closely following sequences of constellations especially where the Moon is involved and likely to be strong in effect.
