The mere mention of the word `teenager' can strike fear into the
heart of the bravest soul, and yet there are some truly heroic
individuals who make it a life-long mission to teach them. Alex
Trenoweth is one such teacher. She also happens to be an
astrologer. Her official subjects are Religious Studies, History
and English, but from reading 'Growing Pains' you will quickly find
that her true passion is the actual students themselves. Using the
cycles of Jupiter and Saturn she untangles the confusing conundrum
of why groups of students are so different from each other year on
year, and sometimes even within year groups. How is an already
over-worked teacher supposed to cope with this ongoing challenge?
Alex Trenoweth has the answer.
An examination of the waxing and waning influence of demoted
planets * Explains in detail how the demotion or proved
nonexistence of a planet marks the beginning of a roughly 30-year
period in which that planet's influence wanes * Explores Pluto's
arc of influence on individual and collective life in depth, from
its discovery in 1930 to the end of its influence in 2036 * Offers
examples from other demoted planets, such as Ceres, whose
fifty-year reign as a planet corresponds very closely to the
Romantic Era of history Recent research in astrology has shown that
the discovery of a new planet correlates with the emergence of a
new set of influences in individual and collective life. As John
Michael Greer reveals, the opposite is also true: the demotion of a
planet correlates with the decline of a set of influences into the
background. Although there are several instances of this over the
last two centuries, Pluto, downgraded to minor planet status in
2006, is the most striking example. Exploring the waxing and waning
of planetary influences in astrology, Pluto in particular, Greer
explains in detail how the demotion or proved nonexistence of a
planet marks the beginning of a roughly 30-year period in which
that planet's influence fades out. He examines several examples of
planet demotion, including Ceres, whose fifty-year reign as a
planet corresponds closely to the Romantic Era of history. Ceres's
influence began to take shape some 30 years before its discovery in
1801 and gradually faded over the three decades following its
demotion in the 1850s. Examining Pluto's astrological influence in
depth, from the beginning of the search for "Planet X" in 1900 to
the end of its influence in 2036, the author shows how during the
Plutonian era the concept of cosmos--from the ancient Greek meaning
"that which is beautifully ordered"--was in eclipse. Pluto's
influence led to the rejection of unity, beauty, and order,
exemplified through the splitting of the atom by physicists, the
splitting of the individual into conscious and subconscious halves
by psychoanalysts, and the splitting of the world into warring
camps by politicians. Offering an essential guide not only to the
astrology of the future but to the twilight of the Plutonian era,
Greer shows how as Pluto's influence fades out in the years ahead,
a great many disruptive phenomena of the recent past will fade with
it and the notion of cosmos--beautiful order--will regain its
traditional role in our individual and collective worlds.

Harmonic Astrology in Practice takes off where David Hamblin's
previous book, The Spirit of Numbers: A New Exploration of Harmonic
Astrology comes to a close. The practical advantage of harmonic
astrology is that it offers a far richer and more complete insight
into the interrelationship of planetary forces than is possible
through using the traditional aspects - opposition, trine, square,
etc. All of those are based on divisions of the circle by Two,
Three, or multiples of Two and Three, but in harmonic astrology we
can also study aspects that are based on Five, Seven, or any other
number. Using copious case histories which include Amy Winehouse,
Whitney Houston, Malala Yousafzai, Leonard Cohen, Winston
Churchill, Hermann Hesse, Amma, Rolf Harris, and many, many more,
David Hamblin unlocks secrets of the charts which might otherwise
remain hidden. A fascinating and impressive study.

Dynamic Interactive Astrology uses a comprehensive and
sophisticated set of keywords, and subsequent key phrases created
by the user, that provide immediate access to the meanings in one's
birth chart of the Planets, Signs, Houses and Aspects - the stuff
of astrology. Specific questions that are addressed to the key
phrases that the reader/seeker has created initiate a process of
dynamic interaction and are based on the idea that the
reader/seeker already has the answers to these questions inside
them. This idea is akin to the basic psychotherapeutic premise that
the practitioner never tells their client what they are like or
what to do, but asks questions that elicit the client's innate
self-awareness. This is known as 'clean' psychology as it avoids
the practitioner's own personal agenda getting in the way. Having
utilised these two methods the user can then apply them, safely, to
other individuals and their birth charts.

Saturn in Transit reveals Saturn's useful and developmental
influence in our lives. Erin Sullivan gives a thorough account of
the astrology, mythology, and psychology of Saturn's role as the
source of divine discontent. Saturn assists the modern hero and
heroine, during its transit around the zodiac, by destroying the

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.
