Geodetic astrology literally means 'World' astrology. The Geodetic Equivalent concept was originally a house cusp structure calculated for any geographic location, and a natal chart inserted within it can be used for personal relocation in order to emphasise or alleviate specific points on that chart. The chart of an eclipse, lunation, or Great Conjunction can also be inserted within its cusp structure for mundane astrology, observing angular emphasis in forecasting. The concept has now been advanced to place the zodiac across a map of the world for a quick glance at where a planet's position or even an eclipse degree would have its greatest influence, pinpointing global "hot" spots for a notable event. It could indicate the escalation of political activity and societal tension, predict the potential of an earthquake or a volcanic eruption, or indicate extreme weather conditions due to shifts in ocean currents. This book is a fascinating compilation of the author's countless years of study in the application of both mundane astrology and personal relocation. It can be understood by any level of astrological student due to the many examples, stories and explanatory text and will no doubt provide inspiration for further research.
Open your heart and mind to the divine magic of crystals For thousands of years, across cultures, civilisations and traditions, crystals have been cherished for their magical uses. From rose quartz to obsidian, topaz to amber - and even the most unassuming of seaside pebbles - the stones that we find in the natural world vibrate with potent energy. This little book will act as your all-encompassing guide to understanding the magic and mystique of sacred stones, and how they can enhance all aspects of your life. By practising the unique, crystal-focused spells, blessings and rituals contained within these pages, you can harness the innate power of crystals to take your spiritual practice to the next level.
It has been known throughout the ages that gemstones and crystals possess energies that can be used to aid in a wide range of activities. From healing to gathering knowledge, from mediation to protections, stones and crystals have long been useful tools in assisting practitioners of various spiritual arts in reaching their potential. In this informative, updated edition of a classic text, author and gemstone properties expert Magda Palmer has completed the mammoth task of matching gemstones and minerals to the celestial bodies of our solar system, correlating astronomical facts with gemmological research.. Her matches align with newly discovered, scientifically recognized facts in astronomical and gemmological research in order to give credence to accepted facts. Each gemstone, rock, and crystal has a unique energy directly linked to its chemical composition and internal structure, just as the celestial bodies that influenced our time of birth emit cosmic forces gained through their inherent state of being. With our appropriate birthstones we can focus ourselves, enhance our positive objectives, and travel our Tao taking the most exhilarating paths. Practical and grounded in a deep love of the subject, this guide offers a valuable resource for practitioners of alternative medicine using gemstones and minerals as a medium in healing. "A powerful and positive book anchored in sound knowledge and research.

The predictions of Nostradamus have been continuously in print since his death and count, alongside the Bible, as one of the two best selling books in publishing history. Today, interest has never been higher, with claims that he foretold recent events and fears that even worse is to come. But prophecy is a tricky business at best, and much of what is claimed for Nostradamus is based on mistranslation, over-optimistic interpretation or corrupt texts. This translation by a professional linguist offers a literary verse translation of all the original prophecies and identifies their historical sources. It identifies the original omen books, illustrated from the original sources and offers reports of these omens in contemporary English translations.

Ebenezer Sibly was a quack doctor, plagiarist, and masonic ritualist in late eighteenth-century London; his brother Manoah was a respectable accountant and a pastor who ministered to his congregation without pay for fifty years. The inventor of Dr. Sibly's Reanimating Solar Tincture, which claimed to restore the newly dead to life, Ebenezer himself died before he turned fifty and stayed that way despite being surrounded by bottles of the stuff. Asked to execute his will, which urged the continued manufacture of Solar Tincture, and left legacies for multiple and concurrent wives as well as an illegitimate son whose name the deceased could not recall, Manoah found his brother's record of financial and moral indiscretions so upsetting that he immediately resigned his executorship. Ebenezer's death brought a premature conclusion to a colorfully chaotic life, lived on the fringes of various interwoven esoteric subcultures. Drawing on such sources as ratebooks and pollbooks, personal letters and published sermons, burial registers and horoscopes, Susan Mitchell Sommers has woven together an engaging microhistory that offers useful revisions to scholarly accounts of Ebenezer and Manoah, while placing the entire Sibly family firmly in the esoteric byways of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The Siblys of London provides fascinating insight into the lives of a family who lived just outside our usual historical range of vision.

With the problems raised by modern interpretations of the planets, both inner and outer, it is time to return to a more extensive study of classical sources on rulership. A systematic source for determining the classical rulership for something, this reference is an adjunct for anyone practicing classical style horary, or wishing to add classical methods to their natal work. Although astrological works dating from the seventeenth century and earlier lack explanations or discussions of the methods of assigning rulerships, we know that rulerships were assigned, and continue to be assigned, right up to the present moment, as new concepts/things are invented/discovered. Dr. Lehman examines how this process was really practiced in the classical period to give us insights into how to proceed today. As the author says, "I view this book as serving two major purposes: as a reference when you need to know what rulerships apply, and as a guide to the classical texts themselves. First and foremost, this is a reference book on rulerships; second, this is a classical concordance. It is out of a sense of respect for the classical material that I have maintained the contradictions and disagreements. The reader may evaluate and decide who is right, who is wrong, or whether the difference was indeed a result of either the usage of the word...or of different usages of the concept." Today we are living in an exciting time for the study of classical astrology because more classical texts are available to the astrologer who wants them than at any time since Partridge. One thing is guaranteed: if you take the time to study the methods, and stalk the classical rulership, it will change your astrology! Happy hunting!

Phoebe Wyss, an experienced astrologer, here examines all aspects of astrology in the light of the emerging worldview known as archetypal cosmology. She sets out by exploring the classical roots of astrology in sources of wisdom found in the ancient Egyptian mysteries. She then follows the tradition to modern times through C.G. Jung's ideas on the nature of the psyche. She also discovers that the claims of astrology are entirely compatible with new cosmological thinking as envisioned by post-modern physics and chaos theory. In the second part of the book, she proposes that the mathematical basis of astrology and the components of astrological charts are both archetypal and cosmic in scope. She argues that the twelve astrological archetypes make up a single 'cosmic mind', whose patterns are imprinted on all our individual minds. Finally, she exemplifies this radical approach to astrology through an interpretation of the chart of William Blake. |
