Jung's Studies in Astrology is an historical survey of his astrological work from the time he began to study the subject. It is based not only on his published writings, but also on the correspondence and documents found in his private archives, many of which have never previously seen the light of day. Liz Greene addresses with thoroughness and detailed scholarship the nature of Jung's involvement with astrology: the ancient, medieval, and modern sources he drew on, the individuals from whom he learned, his ideas about how and why it worked, its religious and philosophical implications, and its applications in the treatment of his patients as well as in his own self-understanding. Greene clearly demonstrates that any serious effort to understand the development of Jung's psychological theories, as well as the nature of his world-view, needs to involve a thorough exploration of his astrological work. In The Astrological World of Jung's Liber Novus, Liz Greene explores the planetary journey Jung portrayed in this remarkable work and investigates the ways in which he used astrological images and themes as an interpretive lens to help him understand the nature of his visions and the deeper psychological meaning behind them. Greene's analysis includes a number of mythic and archetypal elements, including the stories of Salome, Siegfried and Elijah, and demonstrates that astrology, as Jung understood and worked with it, is unquestionably one of the most important foundation stones of analytical psychology, and an essential part of understanding his legacy.
Back due to popular demand! In this book, Richard Idemon teaches us how to look at the natal chart to gain rich, new insight into our deepest nature - the hidden agendas, childhood patterns and the belief systems that invariably shape our lives and relationships. Combining the symbolism of astrology, mythology and Jungian psychology, he teaches us how to break free of the entrenched attitudes that limit and restrict us. Above all, Idemon provides new depth and dimension to the understanding of the most important aspect of our lives - how we reach out and interact with others. He tells us that the important people in our lives are like looking glasses - mirrors of our unfolding process toward a fuller consciousness. By looking into these mirrors we can transform ourselves and thus change the relationships which are so important to us.

Radical and thought provoking, A New Vision of Astrology provides a unique vantage point that will help you harness the power of astrology to shape your life for the better.
Do you believe that the key to finding your soul mate is only in your stars? That you and your partner must have compatible Sun signs if romance is going to thrive? Not so! The truth is that many couples who seem ideally matched astrologically don't sustain a loving relationship. While most astrology books may tell you that true love is a matter of fate, Diane Eichenbaum's Soul Signs in Love shows you that you have the freedom to create the relationship that's right for you. Eichenbaum reveals that relationships involve a combination of factors: destiny, an understanding of each partner's sign, and the willingness to work through the highs and lows of love's natural progression. Each of the twelve signs of the Zodiac corresponds to a phase of a romance, from passionate court-ship, represented by fiery Aries, to the commitment and soul bonding of watery Pisces. Each Sun sign has its gifts (the discernment of Virgo or the enthusiasm of Sagittarius, for example) and its corresponding challenges (the self-doubt of Taurus or the unpredictability of Aquarius) that it brings to a relationship. By understanding that the choice to love and grow with your partner is yours and yours alone, Soul Signs in Love shows you how to enjoy and revel in the unfolding process of discovery and revelation that underlies lasting love.
Soul-Centered Astrology is a groundbreaking sourcebook. Influenced by Theosophical philosophy, Alice Bailey, and the Ancient Wisdom Teachings, Alan Oken describes the evolutionary process of spiritual self-development with the twelve astrological signs and their soulcentered planetary rulers and the esoteric significance of the planets in the signs. The book features an elevation of the spiritual importance of the ascendant, the incarnational relevance of cardinal, fixed, and mutable crosses, and the correlation between astrology and the Seven Rays. Revealing the soul's path to inner enlightenment and outer fulfillment, it offers a complete course for the serious student of the stars that encompasses and goes beyond birth signs and natal charts. Geared to the student traversing a spiritual path, Alan Oken teaches the secrets of Esoteric Astrology that have been a focus of study for mystics and initiates throughout the ages.

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.

For centuries, spiritual seekers have turned to astrology to discover humans' deepest connections with the Earth and the cosmos. But too often, astrology devolves into meaningless clich's or impersonal newspaper horoscopes. In the early part of this century Marc Edmund Jones and Dane Rudhyar liberated astrology from the fatalistic approach of the medieval world. They took power from the high-and-mighty archaic planet gods, and offered it back to human beings. Here, at the end of the century, Inside Planets goes further, invoking each planet as a mighty full-bodied organism with a character and a soul of its own, a living breathing force with passion and humor and purpose that changes as it moves through the houses and signs. Each planet grabs you by the imagination and drags you to the campfire of The Greatest Story Even Told. Far more than an astrology guide, this book resuscitates from the ancient mystery temples of Atlantis an elegant and inspiring pantheon of wonder, terror, and creative solution to the problems that plague the soul.
