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.
The American Ephemeris 1950-2050 at Midnight, The 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 transiting data over the expected life span of
most people currently living. 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. 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.

Teachings, Alan Oken describes the evolutionary process of

between astrology and the Seven Rays. Revealing the soul's path to

astrology. As the first volume of a six volume series, this book

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.
Horary is the branch of astrology that provides clear, specific
answers to specific questions. Quick, simple, and accurate, horary
was for centuries the most valuable tool in any astrologer's
work-box. Whether the question be on love, career, illness - or
predicting the weather for a barbecue, this clear and comprehensive
guide by a modern master of horary shows you how to answer it. The
first edition of this book quickly established itself as a classic
of astrological teaching. Now this master of the craft shares his
deepening understanding, bringing what he has learned in the
intervening years of teaching and practice to clarify, expand upon,
and correct the original text. With the wit and lucidity that
characterise his writing, the author guides all from beginners to
seasoned practitioners to the very heart of horary astrology.
"Frawley's prowess as a horary astrologer is awesome." - The
Mountain Astrologer.

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.
