Histoire de l'iridologie
Bien que la science de l'iridologie ait au moins 3 000 ans et soit utilisée dans le monde, elle est toujours essentiellement un «géant endormi» aux États-Unis, mais il augmente en reconnaissance et en acceptation assez rapidement. Les plus anciens enregistrements découverts à ce jour ont montré qu'une forme d'interprétation de l'iris a été utilisée dans la Chine ancienne il y a 3 000 ans, soit 1 000 av. Deux hommes ont «redécouvert» l'idée de l'analyse de l'iris au XIXe siècle et sont tous deux considérés comme les «pères de l'iridologie» modernes. Ce sont le Dr Ignatz Von Peczely d'Allemagne, et Nils Liljequst, un ecclésiastique suédois. Au fil des ans, d'autres ont grandement contribué à la recherche et au développement de la compréhension de l'iris. Le «père de l'iridologie» aux États-Unis est le Dr Bernard Jensen. Avant sa mort en 2001 (à l'âge de 92 ans), il a écrit de nombreux livres sur l'iridologie, la nutrition et la santé; et passé d'innombrables heures à faire des conférences et à enseigner.
Qu'est-ce que l'iridologie?
L'iridologie est l'étude de la couleur, des pigmentations et de la structure de l'iris ou de la partie colorée de l'œil en ce qui concerne génétiquement la réponse réflexe aux forces et les carences des systèmes corporels.
L'iridologie complète toutes les sciences de la santé car elle fournit des informations, non seulement sur ce qui peut être diffusé au client, mais aussi sur la cause profonde du trouble.
De plus, de nombreux iridologues observent la frontière de l'élève ainsi que les marques vasculaires dans la sclérotique pour les aider à mieux comprendre la santé globale de la personne.
Nous pensons que l'iridologie est l'un des meilleurs outils d'évaluation disponibles pour découvrir quelles zones du corps sont génétiquement fortes et qui sont déficients. En utilisant l'iridologie, nous pouvons analyser la constitution globale en fonction de couleurs et de marquages d'iris spécifiques.

practical iridology Training-Practical Iridology (IIPA Level One) with Manual
The eyes have been called the windows to the soul – and for good reason. The iris of the eye contains a wealth of information about a person’s genetic inheritance, general level of physical health, and even their personality. Iridology can help you determine what body systems are likely at the root of people’s health problems, what diseases they are genetically prone to and where the body is likely to breakdown under stress. This makes iridology one of the most valuable tools you can use for practicing preventive health care! Iridology can also help you develop stronger connections with others by helping you know the best way to communicate them.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with it, iridology is the art and science of examining the colored part of the eye (the iris) to acquire information about a person’s physical, mental and emotional health. I’m the author, Steven Horne, and Practical Iridology is a course I created for the herbalist, nutritionist and/or natural health practitioner. As a professional iridologist and former member of the Board of Directors of the International Iridology Practitioner’s Association (IIPA), I share IIPA’s goal to elevate the practice of iridology worldwide. I am an IIPA Certified Comprehensive® Iridology Instructor (CCII) and am revising this program so it will qualify as an IIPA Level One course.
In Practical Iridology, you’ll learn:
The correct terms to describe all of the anatomical structures of the iris
How to use iridology charts correctly (most people waste a lot of time looking at every marking in the iris, which isn’t necessary for good results)
What the iris can and cannot tell you (a lot of iridologists get this wrong and really abuse this health assessment tool, giving iridology a bad reputation among medical professionals)
The most up-to-date terms for the various markings, signs and patterns that appear in the iris and what they mean
The various constitutional types from German iridology
Basic therapies to use with different iris patterns
The basic elements of Rayid iridology, a system of assessing personality issues using the iris
Practical Iridology features an up to date color manual and additional online materials to make it compliant with requirements for IIPA Certification.
Class Outline
This class will be taught in ten sessions, as follows:
Lesson 1. History, Anatomy and Fundamentals
Our first class will briefly cover the history of iridology, mentioning some of the pioneers in this field. We’ll also cover the actual anatomy of the eye, which helps us understand exactly what we’re observing when we look in the eye and make certain that we use correct terms. We’ll also cover the fundamental concepts of iridology, such as what the iris can and cannot do, and ways the eyes can or cannot change. We’ll also introduce iris maps.
Lesson 2. Iris Topography and Signs
In this second class, we will cover the basics of iris topography—positions, zones and “clock.” We’ll also introduce the major iris signs, including pigments, the various types of lacuna (open, closed, crypts and defect signs), cords, reflexive signs, perifocal lightening and transversals. We’ll explain the difference between topostabile and topolabile signs and compare old iridology terms to new iridology terms.
Lesson 3. Introduction to Constitutional Types
In this lesson we will discuss the nature of constitution as a genetic predisposition. We’ll consider this from the Disease Tree perspective and the Health Equation, created by Bill Caradonna, co-founder of IIPA. We’ll discuss both structural (density and shading) and the three iris color types (Lymphatic, Billiary and Hematogenic). We’ll also introduce the subtypes for each of the color types and the basic therapies those types can use to improve their health.
Lesson 4. Constitutional Types and Subtypes
In this lesson we’ll review the three color constitutions and then go into detail about the constitutional subtypes associated with each of them. These include overacid, febrile, hydrogenoid, uric acid, scurf rim and ferrum chromatose. We’ll also look at the lipemic diatheses, which is a corneal sign, not an iris sign. For each of these types we’ll look at the health problems typically associated with it and the therapies that can be used to balance the body in each of these situations.
Lesson 5. Pigments, Colors and Lacunae Types
In lesson five we’ll cover the meaning of various colors (straw yellow, orange, fluorecent orange, brown and tarry black) and pigments in the iris. We’ll discuss various heterochromia’s (central, partial, hypertrophic and hypotrophic) as well. We’ll also review the various types of lacunas (honeycomb, stairstep, torpedo, beak, tulip, shoe, asparagus, leaf, polypose and medusa) along with collarette crypts and neuronal netting. We’ll talk about topostabile and topolabile signs for both pigments and lacunas.
Lesson 6. Pupil Tonus and Collarette Signs
Lesson six will cover the pupil tonus variations and how they are related to nervous system function. We’ll look at factors like pupil size, ellipses and flattenings and what they mean. We’ll also examine various aspects of the collarette. We’ll consider factors like placement, quality, appearance and shape. We’ll again discuss possible therapies for health problems that may be associated with these signs.
Lesson 7. Contraction Furrows and Sclera Signs
This lesson will cover the various types of contraction furrows, such as concentric, humoral, intersection, peripheral, sectional opening, sloped and stairstep and what they may indicate. We’ll also cover some of the signs seen in the sclera of the eye such as trauma forks, fermentation signs, encapsulations signs, pinguecula and ptergium. We’ll also talk about the meaning of various types of blood vessels visible in the sclera, such as indicator, tangetial, meandering, bordered, spiral and netted.
Lesson 8. Emotional Iridology
Independently of iridologists, Denny Johnson created a system of emotional interpretation of the iris. Since all traditional systems of constitutional typing link physical and personality tendencies, it makes sense that basic genetically-determined personality characteristics would be visible in the eye. So, in this lesson we’ll talk about the four basic emotional types, flower, jewel, stream and shaker. We’ll also cover introversion and extroversion, right and left brain dominance and the emotional meaning of specific signs and map areas. This topic will be covered in more detail in the Personality Typing and Therapy class in the Certified Emotional Healing Coach program.
Lessons 9 and 10. Iris Analysis by Body System, Parts One and Two
In lesson’s nine and ten we’ll put it all together. We’ll go through the various body systems and show how to put things together to read the iris as a whole. We’ll demonstrate how to move from the general to the specific, ask the right questions and put together programs using the information we gain from the iris.
Histoire de l'iridologie
Iridology research began in 1670 when Dr. Philippus Meyens published a paper describing the eyes of his patients when they became sick or injured. He also noticed changes in the eye that came with healing and was able to link points on the iris to specific parts of the body. By observing the eye, he was eventually able to identify areas in the body in need of support which would show up in the eye long before physical symptoms would manifest.While eyes have been a focus in civilizations throughout the ages, “modern” Iridology got its start just over 100 years ago. In the late 1800’s, a physician from Hungary and another from Sweden began observing eyes and organizing their findings. This process of observation and correlating has been slow, but it established a foundation for others to build on.
The first book on Iridology in America, by an emigrated Austrian physician, was printed in 1904. This was followed by the works of N.D.s and other naturopathic oriented M.D.s.Working with limited magnification and photography equipment, progress was difficult. Then with the emergence of the AMA and other political and economic influences and the advent of “miracle” drugs, almost all natural medicine practices declined in this country. Dr. Bernard Jensen is credited with keeping Iridology alive in North America.In Europe, a different political and economic climate created an environment that has allowed Iridology (and other natural medicine practices) to evolve. Extensive research has been carried out in Europe and iridology is now widely accepted as a valuable preventative health care approach. Currently in the U.S. more people are showing interest in iridology as an alternative method for improving health. Now you can experience the benefits of this remarkable assessment tool/technique.
