## Resource

In this episode of Strange, Rare & Peculiar , Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray dig into one of the most important tools in classical homeopathy: the repertory. What is it, where did it come from, and why does it matter so much in case analysis? From Hahnemann’s earliest attempts to organize proving data to Kent, Boenninghausen, Hering, Gentry, and modern repertories like Murphy, this conversation explores the history, strengths, limits, and real-world use of repertory work in homeopathic practice. They also get into a bigger question: is the repertory a precision instrument, or are people treating it like an oracle? If you’ve ever wondered how homeopaths move from symptoms to remedy selection — or why different repertories can lead to different results — this episode opens that door. This is a rich conversation on the skill it takes to practice homeopathy well. Strange, Rare & Peculiar is a weekly podcast with Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray of the Institute for the Advancement of Homeopathy and the Academy of Homeopathy Education. This season, we’re focusing on truth — what it means to Aude Sapere (“dare to know”) in homeopathy today. From Hahnemann’s original insights to the realities of modern practice, research, and education, Denise and Alastair bring over 50 years of experience to conversations that challenge assumptions and invite curiosity. 🎧 If you’re ready to look deeper — beyond trends, beyond opinion — join the conversation and rediscover what homeopathy truly is.
