For centuries, the Tong Shu (Chinese Almanac) has been used as the
definitive guide for selecting good dates for important activities.
Often, no important activity would be undertaken without first
glancing at the Tong Shu to determine an auspicious day for it, or
at the very least, to ensure that it was not being done on a bad
day. Date selection ensures the success and effectiveness of a
particular activity or endeavour. The 2013 Tong Shu Calendar is
adapted from Joey Yap's Annual Tong Shu Diary. The highlights of
this easy-to-use calendar: Daily Guide to Suitable and Unsuitable
Activities for 2013; Guide to Feng Shui Afflictions and Influences
for 2013; Monthly Astrology Guide for all 12 Animal Signs; Monthly
Flying Stars Feng Shui Guide; Daily Flying Stars Feng Shui;
All-in-One Chinese Solar, Lunar and Western Gregorian Calendar for
2013.
Astrological Magic: Basic Rituals & Meditations is designed for
both beginning and experienced ritualists. Written by two veteran
ritualists with twenty years of experience apiece, it describes
magic in terms of spiritual healing, and is especially written for
contemporary astrologers (both traditionalists and modernists) who
want a more hands-on, ritualized, and astrologically-based
spirituality to complement their chart-reading practices. This book
is also designed for those interested in ritual magic, the Tarot,
and meditative practices as paths to a spiritually-centered life.
For those focusing on ritual magic, this book will teach them how
to eventually write their own rituals. For those seeking a deeper
understanding of the Tarot, it illuminates the astrological powers
behind these cards, and for practitioners of meditation, every
ritual includes two meditations. Following an extensive
introduction full of instruction and hints, including a primer on
astrological elections, Astrological Magic contains rituals on all
Elements, Planets, and Signs, with a culminating ritual for each
group. Tarot meditations and other visualizations, Appendices on
incenses and color, and more are included in this invaluable guide
to astrological ritual and spirituality.
O"Astrological Remediation" brings to the spotlight a new approach
for an imminently realistic and healing use of the astrological
birth chart. . . [a] remarkable and vastly influential
work.ONJudith Hill, astrologer.
This book shows how the discovery of the asteroids Ceres, Pallas
Athena, Juno, and Vesta coincided with the shift of a woman. The
creating, supporting, nurturing aspect held by the goddess Ceres,
the universal mother, brings us to how we feel nurtured and how we
function with our roles of mother-child. She embodies the principle
of unconditional love. Pallas Athena is our Warrior Goddess, a
woman in a man's world, carrying the principle of creative
intelligence. Vesta, our goddess of Focus and Commitment, is our
High Priestess. Juno, the Queen of Heaven and Divine Consort, is
our capacity for meaningful relationships. Understanding the themes
that each goddess holds enriches our understanding of that function
and expression in our lives.
Written as a unification of Eastern and Western approaches,
Astrology by Moonlight presents a fresh look at the Moon and how
its eight phases interact with every sign and planetary body. Tara
Aal and Aswin Subramanyan help you get more in touch with yourself
and the cycles of nature through a deep exploration of the Moon's
phases. This groundbreaking book takes you beyond the static chart
analysis of signs, houses, and aspects. You'll learn how to make
the most of each Moon phase's energy, such as starting a project
during the New Moon and letting go of the old during the Balsamic
Moon. Beginners and experienced astrologers will find compelling
psychological and spiritual insights.
Taylor teaches readers how to quickly develop confidence in their
own ability to interpret a chart. She helps people understand the
principles that the planets, signs and houses represent, while
introducing astrological concepts.

The American Ephemeris 1950-2050 at Noon, Trans-Century Edition, is
published in response to multiple requests for a one hundred year
ephemeris covering these "most useful years." With the years 1950
through 2050, only one ephemeris needs to be at hand, especially
when traveling, for an astrologer to do quick lookups of both birth
data and future transits for most people he or she might encounter.
Since the 1976 publication of the first version of The American
Ephemeris, 1931-1980, Neil F. Michelsen's ground-breaking series of
ephemerides for astrologers have consistently set standards for
accuracy in astrology, becoming indispensible to astrologers
worldwide at every level from student to professional. The
tradition continues with the addition of this new tropical
ephemeris spanning from mid 20th century through mid 21st century,
which is published in two versions. This one is calculated for noon
UT, and the other for Midnight UT. Rique Pottenger has revised and
expanded the Michelsen programming with updated Jet Propulsion
Laboratory data and improvements in the computer generating program
that, for example, enable finding double ingresses in a single day,
plus more accurate station times. A new formula increases the
accuracy of the Galactic Center calculation. Other new features
have been added, the most obvious of which are the dwarf planets
Ceres and Eris, in response to the 2006 decisions of the
International Astronomical Union. Monthly positions have also been
added for the remaining three of the former four major asteroids in
wide use among astrologers, Pallas, Juno and Vesta, and also for
the centaur, Chiron. 978-1-934976-27-2 624 pages $29.95
Presented for the first time, full interpretations of the
astrological quintiles and the sesquiquintiles using the ten
traditional planets and the Ascendant. In this groundbreaking book,
astrologer Dusty Bunker reveals the importance of the 72 Degrees
quintile and the 108 Degrees sesquiquintile, two previously ignored
astrological aspects, which the Egyptians called the "sacred golden
bowls." With information gathered over thirty years through
studying esoteric numbers, sacred geometry, Masonic manuscripts,
religious texts, Egyptian symbols, and much more, Dusty shows why
these aspects should be considered among the most important in the
lexicon of astrologers because they reveal your hidden talents and
your legacy, your path to fame! With a dusty map in hand, travel
from the cosmic birth of the quintiles and the sesquiquintiles to
the sand-covered site where these golden-bowl aspects have remained
hidden all these years. This important reference book should be
part of every astrologer's library.
A CONTEMPORARY CLASSIC. This in-depth study of the minor planet
Chiron traces the development of the archetype of the Shaman, or
Wounded Healer, which accompanies the soul's journey of awakening.
It also demonstrates how this theme is reflected in the
astronomical picture, and in turn revealed in the individual
horoscope. Chiron's story in Greek mythology is explored and
illuminated with skilled interpretation, and there are two large
sections detailing Chiron's symbolism and meaning through the signs
and houses, and aspecting the planets. The chapter on transits
describes the profound process which Chiron signals as it moves
around the horoscope over time. This book is essential reading for
anyone seeking to shed light on the astrological symbolism and
meaning of Chiron. Chiron was discovered in 1977 as a celestial
anomaly, but is now in a class of its own. In the early 1990s,
exciting discoveries within astronomical science revealed a new
category of objects, named the Centaurs'. Chiron is considered the
major representative of this group which comprises short-orbit
comets that cross the paths of the planets from Jupiter to Pluto.
The symbolism of this is perfect, as Chiron stands for that
luminous thread of consciousness which links the inner and outer
dimensions of our human experience, helping us to make sense of our
suffering in a deeply personal way, and thus to release our
attachment to it. This book is a classic of original thinking,
inspiration, depth of astrological experience and careful research.
It has more than stood the test of time, and is appreciated by an
ever-growing number of astrologers who focus on the soul's
unfoldment through life experience, bitter or sweet. This book has
addressed and accompanied the healing journey of many thousands of
people all over the world. REVISION This edition of 'Chiron and the
Healing Journey' represents a major revision of the best-selling
previous editions, first published in 1989 and 1999 by Arkana, and
in April 2010 in paperback by Starwalker Press. Changes include an
entirely new section on the astronomy of Chiron, and how it is
reflected in the mythology. The final section 'Spirit of the Age'
has been rewritten to address more precisely our contemporary
concerns. There is much new case material illustrating Chiron in
the horoscope, and the reader is also briefly introduced to other
Minor Planets in the same category as Chiron. The mythological base
has also been expanded, and there is an in-depth exploration of the
'Chiron Return' which occurs at age 50, representing a major 'rite
of passage' for everyone.

Using methods developed by ancient Astrologers, Lee Lehman works to
strengthen techniques used by Astrologers today. The task of
Classical Astrology today is twofold: to recover these techniques
and to evaluate and understand them within a modern context. She
presents both techniques and the logic behind them to radically
improve all Astrology, regardless of whether the practitioner
chooses to adopt a Classical or Neo-Classical approach. She
analyzes the charts of several famous people and events to
demonstrate the techniques and their effectiveness.

The influence of the seven Wandering Stars or Deathless Powers of
the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter & Saturn has
shaped the development of magick for many thousands of years. Their
influence can be seen permeating many of the modern Western
Esoteric Traditions, who are the inheritors of the wisdom &
knowledge passed down through the ages. From Ancient Sumeria, to
the Greeks, the Romans, the early Qabalists, the Medieval &
Renaissance Grimoire Magickians through to the Victorian Occult
Societies, the influence of the planets is clearly present in the
symbolism of their ceremonies, practices & beliefs. In this
practical sourcebook, the authors bring together old & new
techniques which they hope will inspire others to explore the
multi-faceted world of planetary magick. There are simple planetary
contemplations, hymns & meditation journeys, ideal for the
novice who wants to explore the symbolism of the planets & in
doing so learn to focus the different planetary energies.
Information is provided on the many spiritual beings associated
with the planets - The Gods & Goddesses who give their names to
the planets, the Olympic Spirits, Archangels, Orders of Angels,
Planetary Intelligences & Planetary Spirits. Essential
techniques for creating planetary sigils using the magick number
squares, calculating planetary hours, making & consecrating
amulets & talismans are given with practical examples. Drawing
from their experience & knowledge gained working in a number of
Western Esoteric Traditions, the authors also present here original
planetary techniques & ceremonies - including the Ritual of the
Heptagram, Planetary Pyramids, Planetary Magick Circles & Angle
Webs. The rich symbolism & influence of the magick of the
Wandering Stars underlies the spiritual & magickal heritage of
Western Esotericism. Through exploring & working with the
Deathless Powers, the reader can come to a greater understanding of
the transformative powers they offer every true seeker of the
Mysteries.
