This down-to-earth exploration of natal chart interpretation shows the familial, male-female patterns in the zodiacal signs and the potentials they hold in combination with planetary energies and house symbolism. Our personalities are strongly influenced by what was happening around us when we were infants and whether our needs were met. Lundsted explains that our natal chart is our parent's transit chart, therefore revealing the truth of our childhood family dynamics. Once we understand these dynamics, Lundsted helps us move beyond laying blame on our parents by identifying the compensating strengths revealed in the chart. She also shows us that the typically classified difficult or hard aspects in the chart actually hold the key to our transformation.

When you think of astrology, you may think of the horoscope section in your local paper, or of Nancy Reagan's consultations with an astrologer in the White House in the 1980s. Yet almost every religion uses some form of astrology: some way of thinking about the sun, moon, stars, and planets and how they hold significance for human lives on earth. Astrology and Cosmology in the World's Religions offers an accessible overview of the astrologies of the world's religions, placing them into context within theories of how the wider universe came into being and operates. Campion traces beliefs about the heavens among peoples ranging from ancient Egypt and China, to Australia and Polynesia, and India and the Islamic world. Addressing each religion in a separate chapter, Campion outlines how, by observing the celestial bodies, people have engaged with the divine, managed the future, and attempted to understand events here on earth. This fascinating text offers a unique way to delve into comparative religions and will also appeal to those intrigued by New Age topics.

This book is written for experienced astrologers. A yod is formed when two planets that are sextile (60) also form an inconjunct (150) to another planet. These planets are in different signs and modes and are deeply significant for they usually symbolise family patterns that have lasted for generations. The presence of a yod in a natal chart, whether by transit or by progression, can have a profound impact on personality and life experiences.

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.

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.

During the sixteenth century, no part of the Christian West saw the development of a more powerful and pervasive astrological culture than the very home of the Reformation movement-the Protestant towns of the Holy Roman Empire. While most modern approaches to the religious and social reforms of that age give scant attention to cosmological preoccupations, this study argues that astrological concepts and imagery played a key role in preparing the ground for the evangelical movement sparked by Martin Luther in the 1520s, as well as in shaping the distinctive characteristics of German evangelical culture over the following century. Spreading above all through cheap printed almanacs and prognostications, popular astrology functioned in paradoxical ways. It contributed to an enlarged and abstracted sense of the divine that led away from clericalism, sacramentalism, and the cult of the saints; at the same time, it sought to ground people more squarely in practical matters of daily life. The art gained unprecedented sanction from Luther's closest associate, Philipp Melanchthon, whose teachings influenced generations of preachers, physicians, schoolmasters, and literate layfolk. But the apocalyptic astrology that came to prevail among evangelicals involved a perpetuation, even a strengthening, of ties between faith and cosmology, which played out in beliefs about nature and natural signs that would later appear as rank superstitions. Not until the early seventeenth century did Luther's heirs experience a "crisis of piety" that forced preachers and stargazers to part ways. Astrology and Reformation illuminates an early modern outlook that was both practical and prophetic; a world that was neither traditionally enchanted nor rationally disenchanted, but quite different from the medieval world of perception it had displaced.

Students of astrology are often stymied by the daunting task of interpretation. It appears as if lots of experience and intuition are required, let alone the need for special counseling skills. Rod Suskin has produced a guide for students that removes the mystery and confusion. Based on the work of Bonatti, Morin, Lilly and Zoller, the 43 rules offer a method that distils the essence of chart interpretation. With no need for cookbooks and based firmly in the traditional principles of astrology, the rules will steer the student through a process of discerning, understanding and selecting the appropriate meanings of the planets for clear and accurate interpretation.
