Your cosmic DNA is written in the skies - and when you explore the
celestial threads that weave together your unique tapestry, you
discover a map to your greatest potential in this lifetime. Written
by popular astrologer and depth psychologist Jennifer Freed, PhD,
Use Your Planets Wisely is an innovative and transformative guide
to personal evolution through astrology. Bridging the archetypal
nature of the birth chart with an understanding of psychological
growth, Freed helps us see the many parts of ourselves with new
clarity - both the parts we love and the parts we try to hide - and
then work with each part as we come into greater alignment with our
most joyful and impactful lives. Use Your Planets Wisely is written
with the complete beginner in mind, though even experienced readers
will find value as Freed expertly demystifies elements of astrology
that are often either overlooked or overly complicated. First, an
insightful integration of astrology and psychology helps us
identify the primitive, adaptive, and evolving expressions of the
star signs within our charts. Then, through reflection questions
and activities, we learn to celebrate the places we already shine
and grow into our potential to thrive and serve where we've been
stuck. This book is your invitation to embark on a journey to
greater connection, joy, and purpose with the archetypal guidance
of the stars.
Superb general account.' Times Literary SupplementThe story of the
history of Western astrology begins with the philosophers of Greece
in the 5th century BC. To the magic and stargazing of Egypt the
Greeks added numerology, geometryand rational thought. The
philosophy of Plato and later of the Stoics made astrology
respectable, and by the time Ptolemy wrote his textbook the
Tetrabiblos, in the second century AD, the main lines of
astrological practice as it is known today had already been laid
down. In future centuries astrology shifted to Islam only to return
to the West in medieval times where it flourished until the shift
of ideas during the Renaissance.
Astrology has the power to take our breath away, to enchant us
through the eerie synchronicities it reveals between sky events and
earth events. Life presents us all with periods that are both
challenging and potentially transformative. This book shows - in
intimate detail and grounded in the author's personal experience -
how the outer planets can be used to help navigate and illuminate
those testing times. Astrology can guide us through the deep
initiatory and transformative experiences that life, if we are
willing, offers us - providing an affirmation of an intuitive,
non-rational means of knowing that's central to who we are as
humans, but undervalued and even denied in our modern age. Surfing
the Galactic Highways is a refreshingly bold assertion of the
intuitive, non-rational nature of astrological knowledge, and a
thoroughgoing refutation of those who would relegate astrology to
the status of a 'pseudo-science'.
