The Memory of Water, a "local" explanation of homeopathy's efficacy, has been supplemented recently by complementary "nonlocal" hypotheses. One of these envisages "quantum macro-entanglement" among patient, practitioner, and remedy to form a "PPR" entangled state, from which the possibility of cure may manifest.
Semiotic analysis affords a geometrical description of this entangled state as a patient-centered chiral tetrahedron. Its four corners depict three different types of symptoms (of the patient, the dis-ease, and the remedial substance) and the potentized remedy.
Reflecting this state in a practitioner-derived mirror-like "therapeutic state space" generates two notional patient-centered chiral tetrahedra: cure may be thought to arise from their patient-driven combination "through the looking glass" of the therapeutic state space, into one polyhedron called a stella octangula or stellated octahedron; in essence, a 3-dimensional Star of David.
The practitioner helps in forming these notional semiotic polyhedra, but the patient is at their epicenters (i.e., the practitioner facilitates but ultimately does not control the curative process).
“水的记忆”是顺势疗法疗效的一种“局部”解释，最近又有了互补的“非局部”假说。其中之一设想患者、从业者和药物之间存在“量子宏观纠缠”，以形成一种“PPR”纠缠态，治愈的可能性可能由此显现。
符号学分析将这种纠缠态描述为以患者为中心的手性四面体的几何图形。它的四个角描绘了三种不同类型的症状（患者的症状、疾病的症状和治疗物质的症状）以及增效药物。
在从业者衍生的类似镜子的“治疗状态空间”中反映这种状态会产生两个以患者为中心的概念性手性四面体：可以认为治愈是通过治疗状态空间的“镜子”，由患者驱动它们组合成一个称为八角星或星状八面体的多面体而产生的；本质上是一个三维的大卫之星。
从业者有助于形成这些概念性的符号学多面体，但患者处于其中心位置（即从业者起到促进作用，但最终无法控制治疗过程）。
