Readers of 'Astrological Counselling' will be delighted that
Christina Rose has written a new book. In Tapestry of Planetary
Phases she expands the phases introduced in Dane Rudhyar's Lunation
cycle into interpretations for each pair of planets in their
individual phases. A fascinating and in-depth work that will
transform your chart interpretation, and a very worthy addition to
any bookshelf.
If you're looking for a no frills introduction to astrology, you've
come to the right place. But this book isn't just the theory; Bruce
Scofield brings a wide-angle-lens approach to this rich and diverse
subject, so that by the end of the book you will have a good
grounding in a variety of astrological techniques and be able to
interpret your own chart to a reasonable level; you will also have
benefited from a mountain-top view, overlooking astrology's
fascinating and complicated past, and gain insight into how the
different branches of the art developed and the battles with
religion that ensued as they did so. For those who want to push
further into the number-crunching a detailed Appendix teaches chart
calculation from the ground up.
This is a simple yet comprehensive guide to using the ancient
Chinese system of horoscopes in order to do your own readings. Much
more is involved than just the twelve famous animal signs. The
author shows how the animal year sign cycle is enmeshed with a
repeating cycle of the five elements, yielding a 60-year birth year
cycle (5 x 12); and this in turn is modified by an hour of birth
cycle, which uses the animal signs in a different way. Yin and yang
forces also play a part in the system, which has a classic beauty
of design, yet is supple enough to embrace the multiplicity of
human experience. The book includes extensive year charts, followed
by a 14-page section for each animal sign, covering personality and
aptitude traits, as well as tendencies and potential outcomes with
regard to leisure, career, health, money and family life. A
separate section covers the relationship potential for each sign,
giving helpful scores for every possible combination, with an
ingenious graphic chart offering an at-a-glance summary. The last
major section enables you to work out upcoming astrological
influences for years to come, helping you to make decisions, deal
with change, and cope with other life challenges.
When Jeffrey Wolf Green retired and went into seclusion he left his
daughter Deva with everything that he had ever written which
included drafts of various manuscripts which he had intended to
publish at various points. This also included every audio tape,
video, dvd, and transcript of his lectures delivered over a lengthy
career. He also gave Deva his business and asked her to carry on
with it. This book reflects her desire to continue to disseminate
his work as widely as possible. In Essays on Evolutionary
Astrology: The Evolutionary Journey of The Soul there is a
combination of transcribed lectures with parts of various
manuscripts, most of which has never been in print before.
In Astrology: Understanding the Birth Chart, Kevin Burk takes
you step-by-step from the core basics to the finer complexities of
chart interpretation while avoiding sidetracks into obscure
techniques and fuzzy thinking. As a teacher, Burk also understands
that a real grasp of the subject entails more than just learning
the techniques-it also involves grasping the underlying principles
that make those techniques valid.
Astrology: Understanding the Birth Chart is designed to be
useful to all students of astrology, from beginners to more
advanced practitioners, and will help you develop an integrated,
synthesized approach to understanding the birth chart. You will
discover how classical astrology can enrich your understanding of
the planets, signs, and houses. You will explore the meaning of the
Lunar Nodes, eclipses, the angles, retrograde planets, and aspect
patterns. You will also learn how to identify key themes in the
chart, and how to relate the different aspects and elements
together to gain a holistic understanding of the birth chart-and of
the individual. An up-to-date listing of astrological organizations
and software programs is included that offers a wealth of resources
for any astrologer.
In short, this is a well-designed course that provides a solid
foundation for anyone who is interested in practicing astrology
quickly and with confidence. While many books at this level simply
give you a set of techniques and ready-made interpretations, this
book will give you a deeper grasp of an art and science that has
its expression in the world around us, but its roots in the
invisible world of primal origins.
This synthesis of the ancient mysteries goes beyond astrology
and Tarot to shed new light on the eternal question of personal
destiny. The author examines the conditioning factors of time and
birthdate and reveals a ten-day cycle formula that will help you
understand yourself and others with amazing accuracy.
The Moon is not just a static piece of cosmic matter in our night
sky, but a dynamic living being. Throughout her journey around the
Earth which takes about 29.5 days she shows us her different faces,
growing from a silver sliver in the sky to an awe-inspiring
illuminated sphere, before returning to darkness again. She changes
colour and moves through a variety of star constellations
reflecting the energies at play each day. The Moon gives us a map
to a cyclical way of living; the blueprint for a life that breathes
in harmony with the rhythm of the natural world around us. She
teaches us about the importance of embracing quiet and reflective
times as much as celebrating the times we experience life in its
fullest expression. She informs us when to plant the seeds of our
dreams and when to take stock and harvest what we have been
growing. What will you discover about yourself when you tune into
the moon?
This book is the result of seven years' research and several
thousand case histories through which the author has been able to
peer into the deep inner life of the soul as it reincarnates from
life to life, both as a guide and an observer. While studying
Evolutionary Astrology with Jeff Green, regression therapist
Patricia Walsh realised that the potent combination of the two
disciplines could help to resolve current issues which have their
roots in past life experiences. The types of issues that arise in
past life regressions to be healed are also the exact dynamics that
Evolutionary Astrology aims to describe: * To understand the past
security patterns, emotional and mental imprints that have
conditioned the consciousness previous to this life. * To point the
way to the path of evolution beyond these. Regression work adds to
the understanding of issues presented in the natal chart This book
is not written in a 'multiple choice' style. It will become
apparent that the understanding of previous lives is not such a
simple matter as a few keywords or thoughts relating to one or two
symbols in the chart. Rather, this book is written like a journey
through the archetypes, from the depths to the heights of each, and
is meant to be read in that way, sequentially from Aries to Pisces.
Once the elements of the karmic axis in a chart are understood, all
the related archetypes in this book can be read in relation to a
single chart and synthesized to give a whole picture.
The technique known today as primary directions is one of the most
ancient and renowned methods of astrological forecasting, and also
one of the most powerful. From classical antiquity throughout the
Middle Ages and Renaissance, and even into the twentieth century,
all the great names of western astrology have worked with primary
directions. It was the predictive technique of Dorotheus and
Ptolemy, of Masha'allah and Abu Ma'shar, of Regiomontanus and
Placidus, of Morin de Villefranche and William Lilly. To understand
the Old Masters of astrology, we must understand primary
directions. Students of traditional astrology have often been
deterred by overly mathematical presentations from approaching the
important subject of directions. This comprehensive study explains
the principles of primary directions in an accessible form,
illustrating them by practical examples. It also draws on many
original source texts to outline the historical origins and
development of the technique, and shows how it has been
reinterpreted and occasionally misunderstood. A full glossary and
appendices with software reviews as well as formulae for manual
calculations complement the text. The craft of the Old Masters can
still be learnt.
Combining astrology, numerology, and pure psychic intuition, "The
Secret Language of Birthdays" is a wholly unique compilation that
reveals one's strengths, weaknesses, and major issues while
providing practical advice and spiritual guidance.
Many have suspected that your birthday affects your personality
and how you relate to others. Nineteen years and over one million
copies later, "The Secret Language of Birthdays "continues to
fascinate readers by describing the characteristics associated with
being born on a particular day. The 366 personality profiles are
based on astrology, numerology, the tarot, and Gary Goldschneider's
observations of more than 14,000 people. Your strengths,
weaknesses, and major concerns will be illuminated while you are
given practical advice and spiritual guidance. After you study your
profile, it will be hard to resist examining those of family,
friends, colleagues, and even celebrities.
First issue of the Culture and Cosmos journal
Founded in the twentieth century by the late spiritual teacher Ra Uru Hu, Human Design is often called the "new Astrology," and the "intersection of science and spirituality." Your Human Design chart is formulated by taking your birth date, time, and location and extrapolating specific personality traits and life paths from this convergence. A Human Design chart offers an astonishingly accurate guide to your personality, as well as direction and counsel on how each individual can deal with challenges in their life.
Previously, Human Design charts have been notoriously difficult to interpret and decipher, usually taking a dedicated expert to read and translate them into plain English. At least, that used to be the case--until now.
In Understanding Human Design: The Science of Discovering Who You Really Are, author Karen Curry walks you through the sometimes complex and intimidating Human Design chart with simple, direct language. You will learn about each level of Human Design, from the most basic elements of the chart to the deeper, more nuanced insights Human Design offers, all in an approachable and interesting way. Understand how every line, intersection, and symbol correlates to a personality trait that can directly affect your life with an experienced guide by your side.
Your personal Human Design Chart can reveal your strengths, your weaknesses, and perhaps most importantly, your potential. Prepare for repetitive difficulties that you might encounter throughout your life, and embrace the opportunity to grow as you understand your personal Human Design strategy. With author Karen Curry's assistance and knowledge, you have a path to overcome these difficulties simply by following the directions set out in your Human Design chart, the "owner's manual" to your life.
Astrology has survived ridicule, misunderstanding and
trivialisation, but is poised to be taken seriously again. Its
popular image conceals the fact that is it the repository of
ground-breaking and indeed dangerous knowledge, because it has the
power to take us into the hidden engine room of life and show us
where the levers are. This is a reprint of the second edition of
Cosmic Loom, Dennis Elwell's first book, much enlarged to include
astonishing conclusions on the meaning of events like the Dunblane
Massacre and the death of Diana, Princess of Wales. It shows that
it is now possible to grasp how and why astrology works, thanks to
recent advances in psychology, parapsychology, and above all,
theoretical physics. The subject has aroused scientific, moral and
religious objections - here they are squarely faced and answered.
Packed with concrete examples of astrology in action, the book
spells out its far-reaching implications. It serves as a meaty
introduction for those looking beyond the froth of the populist
'star columns', and at the same time provides experienced
astrologers with a new perspective on chart interpretation.
