Soul-Centered Astrology is a groundbreaking sourcebook. Influenced
by Theosophical philosophy, Alice Bailey, and the Ancient Wisdom
Teachings, Alan Oken describes the evolutionary process of
spiritual self-development with the twelve astrological signs and
their soulcentered planetary rulers and the esoteric significance
of the planets in the signs. The book features an elevation of the
spiritual importance of the ascendant, the incarnational relevance
of cardinal, fixed, and mutable crosses, and the correlation
between astrology and the Seven Rays. Revealing the soul's path to
inner enlightenment and outer fulfillment, it offers a complete
course for the serious student of the stars that encompasses and
goes beyond birth signs and natal charts. Geared to the student
traversing a spiritual path, Alan Oken teaches the secrets of
Esoteric Astrology that have been a focus of study for mystics and
initiates throughout the ages.
It is common knowledge that the 12 star-signs map the sky and set
the stage for the drama of life. This book expands this awareness
manifold by revealing that it is the 27 constellations, and not the
12 signs, which truly map the ecliptic and provide the celestial
backdrop for affairs on earth. Instead of taking away from the
widely recognized meanings and significations of the 12 signs, they
enrich them with a whole new depth of perspective and
interpretation.
This book follows up on the foundation provided in Fundamentals of
Vedic Astrology and delves into questions such as impulses likely
to be generated by the planets in different signs and houses of the
natal chart. The author makes this subject eminently readable and
cuts through the obscurity of the centuries to present a clear and
effective science with a deep psychological background and
underpinning.
The science of esoteric astrology is said to be the basic occult
science for the future. It will come into its own as the esoteric
or soul factors begin to supersede the exoteric focus of the vast
majority of professional and amateur astrologers today. This is the
science which deals with those conditioning and governing energies
and forces which play through and upon the whole field of space and
all that is found within that field. The Ancient Wisdom teaches
that "Space is an entity". It is with the life of this entity and
with the forces and energies, the impulses and the rhythms, the
cycles and the times and seasons, that esoteric astrology deals.
Esoteric astrology can be applied by the trained worker in a
variety of ways; in medicine, psychology, science, education; to an
evaluation of human problems, of the destiny of nations, of a
correct interpretation of world affairs, and so on. It is
necessary, however, that at this stage the application of esoteric
astrology to human life should be recognised as experimental and
tentative, so that each individual worker can adjust his thinking
and his methods according to his own wrought-out experience. As
with all other aspects of occultism and esotericism, accuracy and
facility to work depend entirely on a consciousness evolving out of
control by the personality into the life of the soul, out of
separateness and self-centredness into a realisation of unity, and
absorption into a centre of group consciousness. Astrology is
described in this book as "the science of relationships" - the
relationship existing between all living organisms within the
universe. Not only the qualities of the ray energies affect these
centres of consciousness, but also the quality and energy of the
ruling planets and the zodiacal signs. Seen from the exoteric
outside, astrology is a vast and most involved and complex subject.
From the esoteric inside, while it is still vast, all-inclusive and
complex, it is also possible to perceive the thread which unites
and the pattern which prevails throughout the whole system. A basic
simplicity in the grand design emerges, therefore, which can serve
to interpret the whole. The main chapter headings to this book
provide the sequence in developing study: (1) The Zodiac and the
Rays (2) The Nature of Esoteric Astrology (3) The Science of
Triangles (4) The Sacred and Non-Sacred Planets (5) Three Major
Constellations (6) The Three Crosses (7) The Rays, Constellations
and Planets. In addition there is an appendix which summarises and
tabulates many of the factors of fundamental importance to the
study of esoteric astrology. This is a book for the true occult
student. It may appear to be too highly specialised for some; but
every esoteric worker finds eventually that his work requires an
understanding of the basic astrological factors which affect all
relationships and all forms of life within the ethers of space, so
that he may learn how to cooperate intelligently in the evolution
of the whole by the right adjustment of the part within that whole;
until eventually "the many are absorbed into the One." The books of
Alice A. Bailey, written in cooperation with a Tibetan teacher
between 1919-1949, constitute a continuation of the Ageless
Wisdom--a body of esoteric teaching handed down from ancient times
in a form which is always suitable to each period. Intended to
precede and condition the coming era, the Alice A. Bailey writings
offer an unparalleled spiritual approach to such subjects as the
teaching on Shamballa and the Path of spiritual evolution; the
spiritual Hierarchy; the new discipleship and training in
meditation as a form of service; the teaching on the seven rays and
the new psychology of the soul; the teaching on esoteric astrology;
and the new world religion, which emphasizes the common thread of
truth linking all the major world faiths.

This book is the very essence of Jupiter. From its apt title, to
its generous use of many famous chart examples, to Arroyo's
trademark insight and wisdom on every page, "Exploring Jupiter" is
positively a winner The presentation of the astrology is clear,
practical and intelligent, making it a must for both newer students
and more experienced practising astrologers. Unlike the majority of
modern astrologers, Arroyo refers to Jupiter's ancient rulership of
Pisces as being significant, and the book is written with this in
mind. Otherwise much of the book is built on the usual "cookbook"
approach: Jupiter through the signs, Jupiter through the houses
(arranged by element), Jupiter aspects in the birth chart and so
on. As always with Stephen Arroyo, it is the clarity and profound
depth of these guidelines for interpretation that is so striking.
The chapter on transits involving Jupiter is particularly good,
building on ideas he has expressed in earlier writings.
