Whether you're a beginning student or a practicing professional,
Horoscope Symbols takes you beyond your present conception of
astrology into a whole new realm of understanding. Horoscope
Symbols takes the beginner beyond cookbook interpretations to
genuine insight, beyond superficial keywords to the fundamental
principles that underlie astrology, beyond overemphasis on signs to
the primacy of planets and angles. Although Hand assumes little
prior knowledge of astrology, the more you know, the more you will
get out of this book. Hand takes the expert beyond the fatalism of
tradition to a deep understanding of the role of personal choice in
the life of the individual, beyond fortune telling to the true
source of human experience.
This Is Your Destiny fuses the wisdom of the stars, real-life
stories and Aliza's knowledge to prove that reality is a reflection
of consciousness, and by shifting your awareness you can transform
your universe to create the life you've ALWAYS wanted. In This Is
Your Destiny Aliza acknowledges that astrology isn't a quick fix.
It's not about solving a problem and moving on. Everything -
literally everything - is connected: Improving your romantic
relationships is about renegotiating your self-worth. Achieving
professional success is about cultivating an abundance-based
mentality. Coping with life's most difficult circumstances is about
building a rich spiritual inner-world. Chapters include Money Is
Emotional, Hustle with Intention and Astrology and Manifestation.
"This book is hilarious and that bitch made me laugh out
loud."-Chelsea Handler A chaotically joyous collection of essays
from one of the original influencers and the internet's sweetheart,
Bretman "The Baddest" Rock. Hilarious and earnest, this collection
of essays, how-tos and never-before-seen photos goes far beyond
what we know of Bretman Rock from social media. Who is Bretman Rock
Sacayanan behind the screen and how did he become the original
superstar influencer and today's beloved best friend of the
internet? You're That Bitch welcomes you into Bretman Rock's
world-from how his childhood in the Philippines, his family,
Filipino culture, and being a first-generation immigrant helped
shape him into who he is today. Peek into how Bretman became a
social media sensation at the precocious age of 14, balancing
living a glamorous jet-setting lifestyle on weekends while still
serving lunch at his school's cafeteria, running as a varsity
track-star, and making honor roll during the week. With his
signature honesty, this is an unfiltered and unprecedented look at
what it means to be one of the first digital celebrities and that
bitch--from dealing with cancel culture, drama and heartbreak, to
what it means to love yourself and your community. From the
funniest and undeniably cutest person on the internet, this is a
book for the weirdos and for the bad bitches . . . this book is for
you!

This study is the first to examine the important political role
played by astrology in Italian court culture. Reconstructing the
powerful dynamics existing between astrologers and their
prospective or existing patrons, The Duke and the Stars illustrates
how the "predictive art" of astrology was a critical source of
information for Italian Renaissance rulers, particularly in times
of crisis. Astrological "intelligence" was often treated as
sensitive, and astrologers and astrologer-physicians were often
trusted with intimate secrets and delicate tasks that required
profound knowledge not only of astrology but also of the political
and personal situation of their clients. Two types of astrological
predictions, medical and political, were taken into the most
serious consideration. Focusing on Milan, Monica Azzolini describes
the various ways in which the Sforza dukes (and Italian rulers more
broadly) used astrology as a political and dynastic tool, guiding
them as they contracted alliances, made political decisions, waged
war, planned weddings, and navigated health crises. The Duke and
the Stars explores science and medicine as studied and practiced in
fifteenth-century Italy, including how astrology was taught in
relation to astronomy.
What is the effect of each of the planets on your star sign? What
is the influence of the 12 'houses'? What are 'aspects' and how do
they relate to your birth chart? In this unique book and weblink
package, renowned astrologer Roy Gillett uncovers the hidden layers
of astrology to explain the complex interplay of influences that
shape our character. The Secret Language of Astrology contains a
unique code that gives access to an AstrolableA' website created
exclusively for the book, enabling you to create a detailed birth
chart for yourself, or for family or friends, within seconds. A
historical Introduction traces the history of astrology from
antiquity to the present day. Then the second part of the book, The
Elements of Astrology, looks at the Planets, the Star Signs, the
twelve Houses and the Aspects. The emphasis throughout is on
equipping the reader to analyse their birth chart, by examining the
influences and showing how they combine to shape our lives and our
potential for growth. The third part, Putting the Pieces Together,
shows you how to apply all this information when reading a full
birth chart and interpreting it. Thoroughly practical, but with a
wealth of historical and cultural detail, as well as superb
illustrations and photographs, this is a landmark in astrological
publishing.
