SAMUEL HAHNEMANN, HIS LIFE IN THE

MIRROR OF ASTROLOGY

Samuel Christian Hahnemann was by any standards a glorious eccentric, and his restless life story
is mirrored in the chronological headlines.
10 April 1755- Hahnemann was born at Meissen, in southeast Germany, at approximately midnight.
So, at least, Hahnemann himself always maintained; but the entry in the church register at Meissen records
the birth as having occurred on the morning of 11 th April, and this later date was adopted by some
homeopaths and gave rise to disagreement about the right day to celebrate the Master’s birthday. It is
curiously appropriate that the inventor of homeopathy should have arrived in this world already equipped
with a future occasion for controversy.
Hahnemann’s father was a craftsman who worked in the famous Meissen pottery trade. He was not very
well off, so that it was with some difficulty that the young Samuel persuaded him to allow him to become a
medical student. As a boy he was put briefly to work for a Leipzig grocer.
