The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Principles of homeopathy
I have read some popular books on homeopathy.But even after that some questions remained unanswered.
Here they are :
1) How determined correspondence between type of the person and homeopathic remedy ? For instance Arsenicum album is an athletic man with grey hair ...
2) In describtion of some homeopathic remedies appear that a person who are corresponds to this homeopathic remedy is blond and/or blue eyed.
But question is : how homeopaths work with this remedy in Africa and India where there are no blond people ?
3) Why homeopaths divided all remedies into mineral , organic , plant , mushroom et cetera ?
Why this is important for homeopath to view remedies in such way ?
4) In his site Rajan Sankaran writes that his rate of success is 4 % ?
What about rate of success of other homeopaths ?
5) How many schools of homeopathy exist ? What are the difference between them?
6) Why different Materia Medica gives different description of remedies ?
7) How patient dreams influence on choosing a homeopathy remedy ?
How it discovered experimentally ?
Where I can get answers ? Could anybody recommend some books ?
Thanks.

'For instance Arsenicum album is an athletic man with grey hair ...
this homeopathic remedy is blond and/or blue eyed...'
These claims about looks of a person corresponding to the remedy he needs are only true if the person resonates to a single remedy for all his life, which ofcourse is rarely the case, as we become a collection of layers owing to the events in our life and the circumstances we go through.
So, the answer is, the appearance is more like an icing on the cake, and can be used just to confirm an indicated remedy.
But, even if the appearances are exactly opposite, and there are strong mental and general indications of a remedy, this does not contra-indicate that remedy , and it still has to be the one which is administered.

But my question is how this was determined ?
And when new remedies are introduced how person types are determined ?

The desriptions like a particular medicine is useful for blondes etc..has come after observing a number of cases over a long period of time.
And it is perhaps the experience of a single author. The subsequent authors just copy that information. :-)
As Sameer pointed out it is not a fail proof method of selecting a medicine. You can safely forget about such descriptions while reading materia medica and concentrate on symptom complexes.

When new remedies are introduced how person types are determined ?
I mean where Hanneman knew from that Arsenicum Album is a an athletic person
with early grey hair ?
Where homeopaths know from that Ferrum is an female substance ?
