RADAR TUTORIALS PART-15

Using the Families Repertory

As indicated above, the Families Module is really an additional repertory. So it can be opened directly just as the Synthesis and the Concepts repertories can be opened. It can also be navigated in the same way as the other repertories. That is, the same function keys, the same quick commands, etc. For example, if you wanted to find the remedies which were contained in the solanaceae family, you could type a question mark and solana (?solana) in the quick command window and you could identify which remedies are in that family. You can also switch between the repertories with Ctrl + F6, just as you did with the Concepts repertory.

To use these rubrics, you would add them to your symptom clipboard as an elimination rubric.

The Camera Icon

When you scroll through the Families Repertory, you will notice a small icon in the repertory next to rubrics and sub rubrics. While this icon also appears in the Synthesis, it shows up frequently in the Families Repertory.

You can double click this icon to display pictures. What types of pictures display depends on what chapter you are in.

For example, in the Five Elements chapter, the camera icon displays a photo of either Air, Earth, Ether, Fire or Water. In the Periodic Table chapter, double clicking the camera icon will display a picture of the periodic table with the current remedy or family of remedies circled on the table.
