This issue of SPECTRUM looks at a very widespread problem in modern societies. In the industrial nations approximately 25% of the population now suffers from allergies, and the figure is still rising. Apparently harmless substances such as pollens, foodstuffs, or animal hair trigger an overreaction of the immune system in sensitive people, resulting in acute or chronic illness. The complaints range from mild local symptoms affecting the nose, eyes, or skin through life-threatening anaphylactic shock. Ever more children and adults are now developing cross-allergies that are particularly difficult to treat.

Here we present homeopathic alternatives to the constant use of antiallergic medication or the long-drawn-out process of desensitization. We focus particularly on the chronic manifestations of atopy: asthma and eczema. Homeopathy can play a prominent role in treating these illnesses, especially in childhood.

This issue of SPECTRUM will surprise its readers because it offers an abundance of new findings and discoveries about the very well-known remedies such as Natrium (Sodium), Sulphur or Phosphorus. Many elements and compounds of the Silica series have already been examined by Hahnemann and used successfully to this day in homeopathic practice. However, astonishing new perspectives are revealed when these polychrests are considered systematically, theatrically or on the level of sensation in addition to the Materia medica. Our authors analyse the remedies of the 3rd series on the basis of the Periodic Table of Elements, which have been translated into human developmental periods, phases and stages by Jan Scholten.
“Me and You” is the comprehensive theme of the 3rd series. According to Jan Scholten, the Silica series corresponds to the life phase of a teenager with the main theme of relationships within the family and with friends. In addition to the body-oriented “I” of the Carbon series, in the 3rd series we come into contact and communication with another person who we want to like us, who we love or who we hate. The position that we assume within a relationship and the feeling of belonging to a group, characterise the respective level in the development with regard to the other person. In his analysis, Scholten writes about these phases of the Silica series and shows parallels to the plant world, as Martin Jakob explains in greater detail in his article.
With his case examples...

“Spectrum Of Homeopathy” is Narayana Publishers’ new journal, whose aim is to combine thorough clinical experience, compact information of materia medica, and diversity of methods.

First issue: Childhood and Psyche
The first issue,  published in April 2010  focusses on mental and emotional problems in children. Through many cases specific approaches are demonstrated, as well as the relationship between different remedy families. These are, for example, butterfly remedies in ADHD or lanthanides in autism. The scope of homeopathic practice is being expanded through “small” remedies like Anantherum, Gallicum acidum, and newly-proven remedies like: Fenoterol, Ozone, and Placenta. Well- known homeopaths such as Louis Klein, Massimo Mangialavori, Rajan Sankaran, Anne Schadde, Jan Scholten, and many other known authors stand for the quality of this issue.

The whole spectrum
There have been many advances in the homeopathic field in recent decades – from the use of modern software, expanding and systematizing our materia medica, to the discovery of new methodology principles. It is Narayana Publishers’ wish to work hand in hand with these developments in a specific way. We know from experience that the future of our tradition-rich healing method lies in the active integration of a range of trends within homeopathy. Because of this, we, as specialist publishers, want to produce a modern and open-minded journal to help contribute to this synthesis. The name “Spectrum of Homeopathy” beauti...
