How to Read Iridology Charts

How to Read Iridology Charts



Iridology practitioners examine the markings in the iris of the eye to locate problems in the rest of the body. They believe that different sectors of the iris are linked to different areas of the body. Certain markings or discolorations indicate potential weaknesses in those specific areas. Iridology isn't used to diagnose specific diseases or conditions. Rather, it's used to indicate general vulnerabilities in all major organs, including the heart, liver, lungs and brain. These vulnerabilities are determined with the help of an iridology chart. Follow these steps to learn how to read one yourself.







Things You'll Need:





Computer with Internet access




Iridology chart




Iris pictures from iridology camera







Notice Iris Markings and Compare Them to Iridology Charts




1


Look for black markings. Black indicates dying tissue and is most common when the area indicated has scarring. Compare the markings seen on the iris to its location on the chart to learn where this scarring is likely to exist.





2


Look for white markings, like small dots or lines. White indicates inflammation. It may mean that a particular area of the body is becoming overwhelmed. Consult the iridology chart to see which organ or system is experiencing this inflammation.





3


Look for rings and arcs around the iris. These may indicate a number of things. Smaller contraction rings may indicate spasms of a particular organ. A sodium ring at the edge of the iris may indicate slow metabolism.





4


Be aware of what sectors of the iris correspond to which areas of the body. Consult your chart. A basic chart is available at Irisdiagnosis.net (see Resources below).





5


Commit the basics of the chart to memory. The brain section is represented at the top of the iris. The colon is further in, closer to the pupil. Problems with the lungs, heart and spleen are indicated on the right side of the iris. Problems with the nose, larynx, thyroid and spine can be found on the left side.
