Summary

Woodcuts adorn the top of each page in this “astro-meteorology,” a fusion of meteorology, astronomy, chemistry and medicine containing forecasts for the next 24 years. For Paracelsus, chemistry was more than a tool, it was a philosophy, a divine calling and a way of life: the “chymical philosophy.”
