The Planetary Hours are an ancient astrological system for selecting favorable times to act (and avoiding unfavorable times), by assigning planetary rulers to the twenty-four hours of the day. This book has easy-to-follow instructions for finding your birthday and birth hour rulers, and clearly explains how these determine your personality and your luck. A chapter on electional astrology explains how to use the Planetary Hours to find lucky times to act (to ask for money; to ask someone on a date or to marry; to go on a journey; to begin a new business). The chapter on How to Cast Spells gives the low-down on how to make magical spells (and prayers) really work, using simple astrological techniques. The use of the Firdaria, an ancient astrological prediction system which indicates positive and negative periods during a lifetime, is illustrated with a detailed analysis of events in the life of Theodore Roosevelt. Complete Tables of Planetary Hours at the end of the book allow you to find favorable times to initiate activities for any day of the year, and for anywhere on earth from the Equator to 58 North and South latitudes. Ideal for any level of astrologer.

Does a planet in a sign have the same meaning in every horoscope? Yes and no. Although everyone with a specific planet in a specific sign shares common characteristics, each displays subtle differences depending upon what degree the planet occupies within that sign. These differences explain why, for example, one person with Mercury in Capricorn is practical and another is more creative or family-oriented, or has a strong desire to be in the spotlight. Both the three decanates (the ten-degree divisions of each sign) and the twelve duads (the two and a half-degree divisions of each sign) reveal sign characteristics specific to the individual, each of which is defined by the degree of the planet in the sign. Using decanates and duads, you can discover much more about every planet in the horoscope, as well as the signs on the anglesthe Midheaven, IC, Ascendant and Descendant. And this, in turn, will lead to new insights into relationships, career choice, communication style, finances and life purpose and goals.

Integrating astrology, mythology and spirituality, this book is a reflection on the themes of the astrological ages across the past 13,000 years and is an exploration of what astrology has to tell us about the meaning of the changes happening globally and culturally in this time. We are currently on the cusp of the Age of Aquarius, at the end of a 26,000 year precessional cycle and, according to ancient prophecies, at the close of a world era. With the recent discovery of the planetoids Sedna and Eris, new forms of consciousness are entering our awareness. Through listening to the messages of the stars and planets, we find guidance for our lives in this intense time of change. We live in a sentient universe, which is calling us back into relationship with the cosmos and with the Earth. In remembering our source (the galactic center), reconnecting with the spirit in all of life and in becoming centered within ourselves, we gain meaning and wisdom for who we are and who we are becoming and find a path for the healing and evolution of ourselves and our Earth.

How to Read Cosmodynes fills an important need in the astrological field. Many know of this method of measuring the relative power of the planets, signs and houses, but few know how to use it in their daily astrological practice. Yet it can be the key to seemingly inexplicable factors in an individual horoscope. Cosmodyne patterns indicate how delays, obstacles and confusion can be avoided. They point to where the energy-expenditure should be directed, how it should be channeled, and the associations which will enhance the demonstration of success. Once you experiment with the use of cosmodynes, you will never give them up. Probably you'll wonder how you managed to do without them for so long.

Dana Williams made a remarkable discovery: the individual phrases of the Lord's Prayer fit perfectly into the 7 chakras and the 12 archetypal paths of life. Out of this discovery developed a unique prayer-meditation. Williams writes, "Each phrase of the Lord's Prayer fits into a chakra like a key into a lock. By reciting each phrase within its chakra, we create an impulse or evocation that brings us into harmony with Spirit's intention for our growth. The Lord's Prayer prayer-meditation begins at the highest chakra of pure Christ Consciousness. This highest energetic quality descends into the lower chakras as we continue with the prayer. This brings the impulse of spirituality into all the charkas, clearing and transforming the patterns of ego that block the impulse of Spirit in our life. If you start a practice when you are young and keep it up over many years, even if you periodically neglect it, the practice will grow, change and deepen. After 35 years, I now have much to share about this special visualization and prayer-meditation that I believe spans the arch of eastern and western religion. For whom is this book written? For all who are interested in the correlations and prayer-meditations described here, and who treasure the Christian traditions. If you know how to work sincerely with prayer, this meditation should have an immediate effect. The purpose of this book is to open the door to this experience."
