A Practical Look at the Planets Through the Houses is written in a
basic, practical way for anyone interested in learning more about
astrology. The content is written to cover practical, hands on
scenarios and is based on years of astrological research with
clients. Each planet is discussed in-depth according to which house
it is located in within the birth chart or natal chart. This book
can also be used to understand transits, progressions of planets
through the houses as the energy will be the same for all these
different types of charts. The goal of this book is to help the
average person, astrology student, and seeker to be able to easily
grasp the energy of each planet, house and to understand the karmic
situations, life experiences and emotional struggles that occur
with each placement. God created astrology and it is an energy that
affects our personality and life. It is meant to be used to create
greater self-awareness and an understanding of others.
In recent years, our society has witnessed a resurgence in
astrology that has elevated that durable art form to a level of
popularity it hasn't enjoyed since the eve of western European
Renaissance. In what has thus far been a relatively successful
attempt to cash in on the triumphs of twentieth-centiry science and
technology, contemporary astrologers unashamedly claim far and wide
that their craft is rationally consistent, that it is
scientifically based, and, above all, that "it works."
In The Gemini Syndrome, two professional astronomers have produced
a highly readable and well-referenced response to claims by
astrologers that their theories are scientifically based. The
authors elucidate the glaring internal inconsistencies associated
with many of the basic concepts of "modern" astrology. They trace
the historical development of the celestial "twins" of astronomy
and astrology and leave little doubt concerning the differences,
both historical and modern, between astronomical science and
astrological art-form.
The book's most telling chapters are those dealing with the
empirical evidence concerning the supposed astrological influences.
Culver and Ianna offer the reader what is the most complete summary
of the available data about sun-signs, houses, and aspects. In
every instance the empirical astrologer is found to have no clothes
on
Finally, the oft-stated claim that "astrology works" is
investigated and laid to rest under the debris of more than three
thousand "busted" predictions made by the astrologers themselves,
ranging from the start of World War III to the existence of an
"anti-earth" orbiting on the other side of the sun.
Acclaimed astrologer Sasportas explores in detail the experiences
and situations associated with each of the houses, describing not
only their tangible associations but also the more subtle meanings
of each of the different spheres of life.
In a time when astrological analysis can begin within seconds of an
on-screen click, we do not often consider the methods that were
previously used to individually calculate a chart as correctly and
simply as possible. This text contains the fundamental processes of
attaining astrological data so that we may understand and benefit
from this tradition which grants us infinite knowledge, reflection,
and growth. Concise, descriptive, at times even poetic, Simplified
Scientific Astrology includes instructions and examples on
accurately determining planetary positions for a given time and
location, and demonstrates an organized method of indexing to
derive overall conditions and effects. The second, extensive
portion of the book is an encyclopedia of astrological terms which
defines these distinctly and lucidly. The work of this master of
Astrology is complemented through this elegantly restored volume.
Within these pages, Max Heindel succinctly elaborates the
procedures of astrological calculation and the integral concepts of
this tremendous discipline.
Including 19 Nobel Prize winners, this work presents a statement
given by 192 scientists, who call the science of astrology a
deception based on magic and superstition.
In The Starry Rubric, Alexander Cummins shows how astrology and
magic offered analysis, interpretation, and solutions - locating
humanity in a shifting web of interrelation with the stars and,
indeed, the cosmos as a whole. Through analysis and example,
Cummins demonstrates the ways in which astrology and magic were
crucial to early modern perspectives on human life, time, and
meaning.
Combining an understanding of astrological symbolism and the
psychological processes involved in the pursuit of individuality,
the author shares insights about how the concept of fate evolves.
Through myths, fairy tales, and zodiacal signs, she shows usthis
mythological journey.
