What did Hippocrates do to try and cure the 4 humours?
This is the main example of one of Hippocrates cures. In the summer when people became hot and red, it was thought they had too much blood in their system. To balance their humours again they would use bloodletting. Bloodletting is when you purposely cut your self so that you bleed. Hippocrates believed that if you were ill one of your four humours were out of balance. He believed the body was made up of four humours, blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile; although no one knows what black bile was. If you came to him ill, they would try and balance your four humours. In the different seasons he noticed different symptom's, for example in summer you would be red and hot, therefore he thought your blood was out of balance. He would either increase, or decrease your amount of blood. If he believed you had too much blood he would use something called bloodletting, this would get rid of some of your blood, and re balance your four humours.

What is the Elizabethan attitude toward stars and astrology?
During Elizabethan times people believed that the stars, planets and signs of the zodiac were linked to various parts of their bodies. Things that happened in the universe, which were called the "macrocosm" were believed to happen on a smaller scale in the human body which were called the "microcosm". The body was also thought to contain four fluids they called "humours". These were black bile, phlegm, blood and cholor. A persons temperament was thought to depend on the way these "humours" were mixed. Most people were thought to have one humour that was more dominant than the others. Illness and mental disorders were blamed on an imbalance of the humours e.g, depression was thought to be caused by an excess of black bile.
