In October 2007, a new phenomenon appeared in the sky, was named
the Comet Holmes, and was being claimed and acclaimed by the Hopi
Nation as the Blue Star of their prophecy. The Blue Star is the
harbinger. Between now and somewhere in 2013-2014, when the Red
Star appears, great shifts in human consciousness will continue.
With the fulfillment of the Mayan Long Count calendar in 2012 and
the appearance of the Red Star, many are predicting that human
consciousness will rise to the next level. Although there may be
catastrophic events associated with this period, and life as we
know it will surely change, if we do the work, this will not be the
Apocalypse. In "The Astrology of 2012 and Beyond", Garrison
explores the changing sky, starting with the movement of Pluto into
Capricorn, a region it hasn't inhabited since 1733. It's
revolutionary times ahead for individuals, governments, and the
planet. Garrison draws on traditional astrology and her
understanding of the Hopi prophecies and their relationship to the
Mayan 2012 predictions, as well as the ending of the 13,000 year
masculine kundalini cycle, to offer practical advice and
information that will help us evolve through the next four years -
including what to expect and how to survive during the nearly
inevitable pole shift.
Horary is the branch of astrology that provides clear, specific
answers to specific questions. Quick, simple, and accurate, horary
was for centuries the most valuable tool in any astrologer's
work-box. Whether the question be on love, career, illness - or
predicting the weather for a barbecue, this clear and comprehensive
guide by a modern master of horary shows you how to answer it. The
first edition of this book quickly established itself as a classic
of astrological teaching. Now this master of the craft shares his
deepening understanding, bringing what he has learned in the
intervening years of teaching and practice to clarify, expand upon,
and correct the original text. With the wit and lucidity that
characterise his writing, the author guides all from beginners to
seasoned practitioners to the very heart of horary astrology.
"Frawley's prowess as a horary astrologer is awesome." - The
Mountain Astrologer.
The American Ephemeris 1950-2050 at Noon, Trans-Century Edition, is
published in response to multiple requests for a one hundred year
ephemeris covering these "most useful years." With the years 1950
through 2050, only one ephemeris needs to be at hand, especially
when traveling, for an astrologer to do quick lookups of both birth
data and future transits for most people he or she might encounter.
Since the 1976 publication of the first version of The American
Ephemeris, 1931-1980, Neil F. Michelsen's ground-breaking series of
ephemerides for astrologers have consistently set standards for
accuracy in astrology, becoming indispensible to astrologers
worldwide at every level from student to professional. The
tradition continues with the addition of this new tropical
ephemeris spanning from mid 20th century through mid 21st century,
which is published in two versions. This one is calculated for noon
UT, and the other for Midnight UT. Rique Pottenger has revised and
expanded the Michelsen programming with updated Jet Propulsion
Laboratory data and improvements in the computer generating program
that, for example, enable finding double ingresses in a single day,
plus more accurate station times. A new formula increases the
accuracy of the Galactic Center calculation. Other new features
have been added, the most obvious of which are the dwarf planets
Ceres and Eris, in response to the 2006 decisions of the
International Astronomical Union. Monthly positions have also been
added for the remaining three of the former four major asteroids in
wide use among astrologers, Pallas, Juno and Vesta, and also for
the centaur, Chiron. 978-1-934976-27-2 624 pages $29.95
The Little Book of Astrology is an accessible introduction to
everything you need to enhance your life using astrology. On
Twitter and Instagram you will have no doubt seen memes poking fun
at everyone's signs - but do you know what they really mean? The
Little Book of Astrology breaks down each of the 12 sun signs,
covering their traits, good and bad points, and attitudes to love,
life and work. Each sign is explored in a clear and simple way -
and perfect for anyone who wants to know more about the symbols,
elements, qualities, birthstones and more about each sign.
Since the 1976 publication of his first version of The American
Ephemeris, 1931-1980, Neil F. Michelsen's ground-breaking series of
ephemerides have consistently set standards for accuracy in
astrology, becoming indispensable to astrologers worldwide at every
level from student to professional. The tradition continues with
this Revised & Expanded Third Edition of The American Ephemeris
for the 21st Century, 2000-2050 at Midnight. Revisions and
additions are programmed by Rique Pottenger, who became head
programmer for ACS Publications after Michelsen's passing.
Additions and improvements include new Jet Propulsion Laboratory
data and programming refinements that enable finding double
ingresses in a single day plus more accurate station times. A new
formula increases the accuracy of the Galactic Center. Phenomena in
the Astro Data section are now sorted by time as well as by date,
and R appears with Planetary Ingress Data if a planet is retrograde
when it ingresses. The most notably obvious additions include the
dwarf planet Ceres in daily longitude listings between Mars and
Jupiter, and monthly positions are given for Eris, Chiron, Pallas,
Juno and Vesta.
It has been known throughout the ages that gemstones and
crystals possess energies that can be used to aid in a wide range
of activities. From healing to gathering knowledge, from mediation
to protections, stones and crystals have long been useful tools in
assisting practitioners of various spiritual arts in reaching their
potential.
In this informative, updated edition of a classic text, author
and gemstone properties expert Magda Palmer has completed the
mammoth task of matching gemstones and minerals to the celestial
bodies of our solar system, correlating astronomical facts with
gemmological research.. Her matches align with newly discovered,
scientifically recognized facts in astronomical and gemmological
research in order to give credence to accepted facts.
Each gemstone, rock, and crystal has a unique energy directly
linked to its chemical composition and internal structure, just as
the celestial bodies that influenced our time of birth emit cosmic
forces gained through their inherent state of being. With our
appropriate birthstones we can focus ourselves, enhance our
positive objectives, and travel our Tao taking the most
exhilarating paths.
Practical and grounded in a deep love of the subject, this guide
offers a valuable resource for practitioners of alternative
medicine using gemstones and minerals as a medium in healing.
"A powerful and positive book anchored in sound knowledge and
research. An enduring classic text it offers humanity valuable
insights for healing and vibrant well-being."
-Hazel Menehira, FTCL, ANZDA, member of the New Zealand Society
of Authors and the Australian Society of Authors
Eliphas Levi, born Alphonse Louis Constant, (1810-75) was
instrumental in the revival of Western occultism in the nineteenth
century, and published several influential books on magic that are
also reissued in this series. This posthumous publication (1896) is
a translation by William Wynn Westcott, co-founder of the 'Hermetic
Order of the Golden Dawn', of an unpublished French manuscript by
Levi, then owned by the spiritualist Edward Maitland. It includes
eight of the author's drawings. Each short chapter outlines the
meaning of one of the twenty-two tarot trumps and is followed by a
brief editor's note describing the card's iconography and
summarising interpretations (sometimes deliberately misleading)
given in Levi's earlier publications. The book ends with
Kabbalistic prayers and rituals, praise of Jesus Christ as the
great initiate, and a surprising assertion that Christianity has
superseded ancient magic, revealing the life-long tension between
Catholicism and magic in Levi's personality and thought.
Zodiac Symbology presents an invaluable compendium of symbols for
each sign of the Zodiac along with explanations of the practical
and esoteric significance of those symbols. Combining a light
approach with substantive information, this book is appropriate
both as general reading for those seeking an introduction to
astrology as well as a useful resource for more advanced students
and researchers. It pictures and discusses gems, flowers, trees,
birds, and animals associated with each sign and also explains the
connections between the signs and colors, music, incense, and
healing herbs.
For the first time, a Tantric scholar and expert in the Hindu traditions of Ayurveda and astrology presents a system of numerology that combines numerical calculations, astrological data, and an analysis of body type. He illustrates the Vedic Square and
the visual patterns that can be derived from it, casting a revealing light on the more esoteric interpretations of numbers and their relationship to one another.
Recommendations are given regarding strong and weak periods of day or year, favorable colors and precious stones to be worn, and meditations and mantras to be practiced for health and prosperity.
He also explains how to determine the
psychic number, name number, and destiny number; how these numbers
relate to each of the nine planets, and how they apply to every
aspect of life--including personality, temperament, intelligence,
talents, sexuality, spirituality, finances, travel, and health.
This new publication of a highly popular classic lives up to its
title in presenting very clear instructions for how to learn
astrology. As the first volume of a six volume series, this book
teaches "Basic Principles" in a proven critically acclaimed method.
Part 1 explains the symbolism of signs, planets, houses and
aspects. Part 2 provides detailed delineation of each of the
planets by sign, house placement and aspect, with thorough examples
and then quizzes that allow the reader to self-test. Throughout,
March and McEvers encourage their readers to "think like an
astrologer."
