Use Tarot to show areas of health issues using Astrology, which has centuries of experience in this area. Even in the nineteenth century, medical diagnosis often depended on a branch of horary astrology known as decumbiture.

The cards in the 6th and 8th houses are indicators of sickness, particularly if there is a planet in either of them.
