Despite a resurgence in popularity, horoscopes are generally
considered to be pseudoscience today - but they were once a
cutting-edge scientific tool. In this ingenious work of history,
data scientist Alexander Boxer examines a treasure trove of
esoteric classical sources to expose the deep imaginative framework
by which - for millennia - we made sense of our fates. Astrology,
he argues, was the ancient world's most ambitious applied
mathematics problem, a grand data-analysis enterprise sustained by
some of history's most brilliant minds, from Ptolemy to al-Kindi to
Kepler. A Scheme of Heaven explores the wonderful subtleties of
astrological ideas. Telling the stories of their inventors and most
influential exponents, Boxer puts them through their paces using
modern data sets - finding that the methods of today's scientists
are often uncomfortably close to those of astrology's ancient
sages.
The work of Giorgio Agamben, one of the world's most important
living philosophers, has been the object of much scrutiny. Yet,
there is one dimension of his thought that remains unexamined by
scholars: the presence of the ancient science of astrology in his
writings. This book, the first of its kind, identifies the
astrological elements and explains the implications of their usage
by Agamben. In so doing, this study challenges us to imagine
Agamben's thought in a radically new light. A critical account of
the presence of astrology and related themes in Agamben's writings,
ranging from the earlier works to the more recent publications,
illustrates that the astrological signature constitutes a mode of
philosophical archaeology that allows for an enhanced understanding
of concepts that are central to his works, such as potentiality,
the signature, bare life and biopolitics.
'I truly believe that every one of us has a purpose here on Earth. You
came here with a little seed of your soul planted within you containing
all the lessons, experiences and adventures that your soul will go
through in this lifetime in order to grow, evolve and awaken. I want to
share with you what I have discovered in my decades of walking this
path and, in turn, help you to discover the journey of your own soul,
for all our paths may be different and part of your journey is for you
to discover yours.' – Kirsty Gallagher

Integrates the Egyptian pantheon, the ancient language of
astrology, and shamanic practices
- Links each of the planets and signs in Western astrology with its
Egyptian counterpart, such as Leo with Anubis
- Includes sacred invocations and shamanic rituals to invite the
wisdom of each Egyptian deity into your life
- Offers a shamanic way to interpret natal horoscopes
"Shamanic Egyptian Astrology" integrates the Egyptian pantheon, the
ancient language of astrology, and shamanic practices to promote a
new way to interpret and work with natal charts. Revealing the
cross-cultural mythology and astrological significance of the
individual Egyptian gods and goddesses, the authors link each of
the 12 zodiac signs and 11 celestial bodies of Western astrology
with its Egyptian ancestor, introducing new significance to their
positions and interactions in a horoscope. For example, Leo is
linked with Anubis and Taurus with Hathor. Venus is associated with
the goddess Isis and Jupiter with Horus.
Each chapter includes sacred invocations and shamanic rituals to
invite the wisdom of each Egyptian deity into your life--such as
calling on Sekhmet for action or Thoth for clarity. With sample
interpretations of the charts of Barack Obama and Gloria Steinem,
this book provides a practical framework for accessing the wisdom
of ancient Egypt and offers astrological and shamanic tools for
spiritual guidance and the coming shift in planetary consciousness.

This is the first-ever mainstream guide to working with the
astrological cycles of the Universe. It will allow you to plan
ahead and achieve more success in your projects, by taking risks at
certain times and avoiding them at others, and also enable you to
live more fully and joyfully, flowing with the natural rhythms of
life. Accessible to complete beginners as well as offering more
complex insights to those who already practise astrology,
Planetology is packed full of hands-on projects to help readers
work with Mercury, Venus, Mars and the sun and moon, each project
with three levels of increasingly complex tasks that are designed
to draw readers up to mastery level. At the book's core is Annie
Botticelli's ASTRO system, which enables readers to align with each
planet's motion through: Awareness (projects to work with each
planet); Strategy (how to plan ahead for each cycle); Techniques
(exercises that range from tapping to mineral soaks and detoxes to
mantras); Remedies (such as crystals and homeopathy, all tuned into
the planet under discussion); and Openness to unexpected, perhaps
unwanted outcomes brought to you by Divine plan. These techniques,
such as prayer and meditation, allow you to be receptive to the
great universal flow that supersedes any one planetary cycle.
In recent years astrology has seen a resurgence of growth and
change that is transforming this ancient subject into an exciting,
profound and entirely contemporary discipline. Catalysed by Carl
Gustav Jung's pioneering work, psychology's effects on astrology -
and astrology's effects on psychology - have been revolutionary.
Here, in one remarkable volume, master astrologer Peter Malsin
brings uniquely clear vision to these two subjects as he provides
the reader with new tools for transformation, understanding and
growth.
Horary is the astrological method for answering a specific question
by examining a chart drawn for the moment of the question. Horary
astrology shares with martial arts training the teaching of a
combination of method and intuition. In both, repetitive practice
results not merely in good technique, but ultimately in Art that
goes beyond all technique. Horary possesses this martial quality
because it is the only branch of Astrology that functions
exclusively in the moment. With nativities, we are always going
beyond the birth moment with transits, progressions, etc. Because
Horary is immediate, its skills must be sharper, and cut deeper.
The purpose of this work is to present the technique of Horary,
viewed through the lens of Western Classical Astrology. By the time
you finish reading this, you will have a good understanding of how
Classical Astrology works, how Horary works, the kinds of Questions
that Horary can answer, and the approaches that are available to
answering those questions.

placements and relationships between them, this deck delivers

of astrological terminology. Learn the challenges and gifts of each

chart or the cards say - the power is truly within you.
"Geocentricity might well be egocentricity". The phenomenon of
retrograde motion is based on our Earth-centered view of the solar
system, but the movement and cycles of retrograde planets are based
entirely on the apparent motion of the Sun through the zodiac. This
book organizes and explains retrograde motion from a
systems-viewpoint -- the system of the Sun and planets -- and
interprets retrograde planets natally, by progression, and in
transit.
Sextrology draws insight from modern astrology to help people find
their perfect sexual matches. This book takes an original, smart
and sexy approach to evaluating astrological identities, and will
again have people asking, 'What's your sign?'.In sophisticated,
uninhibited language, Sextrology accomplishes what no existing
astrology book has ever achieved: it candidly explores sexual
relationships from an astrological perspective without insulting
the reader with new-age mumbo jumbo or sugary advice for capturing
a mate. Sextrology uncovers the naked truth of all possible cosmic
couplings with candour, imaginations, and a wry sense of humour. It
focuses on the 24 sex signs, pointing out the difference between
men and women of each sign, their particular sexual psychology and
behaviour, secret desires, and even physical attributes. Both
straight and gay sex are explored for each sex sign, while desires,
turn-offs, fantasies, and foibles are investigated in titillating
detail. No stone is left unturned in this provocative, highly
entertaining look at the sexes and sexual relationships.

insight into the signs, the stars and the elements and how they
affect every aspect of a cat's life, with horoscopes, tarot and paw
readings for mystic moggies, this book is the perfect guide to the
