Astrology and Meditation explores the idea that the most powerful astrological technique is a quiet, meditative mind. The book presents astrology as a form of active meditation where we contemplate whatever is arising with expectancy, receptivity, and conscious use of will to shape what unfolds. The author presents meditations on the spiritual lessons of the planets and zodiacal signs, and, with the plentiful use of case histories, describes the technique of symbol amplification, which enables us to unfold the deepest meanings of chart symbols. The book ends with a discussion of astrology as a spiritual practice, a training for perfection that can instill qualities such as discernment, humor, steadiness in times of suffering, and an expanded capacity to love.

This "birth chi" can be calculated using the year, month, day, and time of your birth, and it reveals your personal profile of health and emotional strengths and weaknesses as well as the energy cycles you will encounter throughout your life.

They emphasize the importance of local, seasonal, and fresh foods and of acid-alkaline balance for health. The authors illustrate the Five Elements' characteristics through sample profiles for celebrities such as Paul McCartney and Meryl Streep, along with Taoist nutritional recommendations based on their charts. The authors also explore how your Inner Alchemy astrology profile determines your life and relationships and explain how inner alchemy practices and Five Element nutrition can improve all aspects of your life. By eating in line with your personal Five Element energetic profile, as part of ancient Inner Alchemy techniques, you can improve health and longevity and strengthen connections with your loved ones and the energies of the cosmos.

This is a Latin translation made in the mid-12th century of a lost Arabic astrological text on nativities and anniversaries, probably by Masha'allah (762-c.815). The Latin text, the work of Hugo of Santalla, who was in the entourage of Michael, Bishop of Tarazona, in 1145, sheds light on the early stage of Arabic astrology in Baghdad, which was based on Greek and Middle Persian sources, and it includes a bibliography of these sources. This work provides English translations of the parallel passages based on Masha'allah's text - the "Book of Nativities" of Sahl b. Bishr. The book concludes with an index of the sources mentioned and a comprehensive word index.

Written by a contemporary master of traditional practice, this text elucidates both technical matters and significant points of the philosophy that form the basis of the practical craft of astrology.

Spica Award: International Book of the Year, 2001. The astrology that is ubiquitous today is quite different from astrology as practised throughout almost all of its long history. The dilute and distorted version with which we are so familiar is not the study that has fascinated so many of the finest minds in our culture with its intellectual depth and practical precision. John Frawley provides a searching - and often hilarious - critique of modern astrology, and a detailed introduction to all the main branches of the traditional craft. Accessible to those with no prior knowledge of the subject, yet sufficiently through to serve as a vade mecum for the student or practitioner.

"Inside Star Vision" is a landmark astrology book for the twenty-first century and centuries to come. It views human destiny and the life and death travels of individual souls as part of the larger journey undertaken by the universe itself in various modes of being and intelligence. Lonsdale not only leads us through signs, houses, and planets, but also interprets them in the context of broader archetypes and vision quests. He delineates the years 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006, and in a daring and profound act of spiritual writing, he sets the cosmic terms for the imminent transformation of humanity through an opening of the door between the two most separated realms of all, life and death.
