" One modern technique that's extremely valuable in Medical Astrology is that of midpoints.   The use of planetary midpoints in astrology was brought to a high level of development and perfection by Reinhold Ebertin and his Cosmobiology school, also known as Uranian Astrology.

"The planetary cycles and transits are keenly followed by astrologers in their search for periods of lowered resistance in the horoscope. The transiting midpoint of planetary pairs is an additional tool, commonly used by cosmobiologists, but often overlooked by traditionalists.

"That connection--implied in our title--is there between the pancreas and pituitary glands? Medically, not much. Both are endocrine glands.

The pancreas produces insulin and digestive enzymes, the latter fed by a duct to the duodenum. The endocrine--that is, ductless--part of the pancreas is in its production of insulin, which is dumped directly into the blood stream. Without insulin, one cannot properly metabolize blood sugar. Some one who cannot metabolize blood sugar becomes diabetic.

"The recent death of John Travolta's son Jett has brought the discussion of autism back into the news. It has long been rumored that Jett was autistic and John Travolta's brother Joey, founder of the organization Actors for Autism, had long argued the case. However, autism is not recognized by the Church of Scientology of which the Travoltas are members, so Jett was never tested for autism and therefore not diagnosed and treated."
