John D. Grove has spent many years in two worlds - the practical world of professional psychotherapy based on Jungian theory, contrasted with his ongoing more private interest in the world of astrological psychology. Dreams and Astrological Psychology presents his reconciliation of these driving forces in his life. John highlights the profound predicament we in the Western world are in, reflecting the unbalanced state of our own egos. Jungian understanding of the psyche points the way forward, and John suggests that we can each become our own psychologist to begin to understand the puzzle of our own psychic existence. Our dreams and our astrological chart provide keys that help us to unlock this puzzle and realize our true potential as psychologically healthy and balanced individuals, thus raising the level of our collective experience.

Relationships: lovers, partners, romantic interests. Each is represented by one of the houses of the horoscope and its ruling planets. In Relationships, Helen Adams Garrett explains what to look for in the progressed, natal, and transit horoscopes for insights into romance, partners, sex, types, and what the self seeks. She also addresses the importance of Mars and Mercury, and the Nodes and karma, concluding with a portrait of the ideal companion. Love, like, and lust are defined and differentiated. Specifics regarding marriage and divorce are also included in Relationships, with examples of both and the wedding chart. The author explains how to spot potential and actual stressors and danger signals in the marriage through progressions and transits in the wedding chart. Examples include Joan and Ted Kennedy, and the culmination of another marriage, where charts are delineated for the wedding and the filing and granting of divorce.

Numerous examples illustrate the principles of planets in aspect to the angles, as well as rectification using the charts of former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and well-known astrologer L. Edward Johndro.
This follow-up book to "Astrology for the Light Side of Your Brain" is all about your future-what the Sun, Moon and planets mean when they are transiting the signs, houses and planets in your horoscope, or anyone else's horoscope you have to investigate. Kim Rogers-Gallagher takes you on a unique tour of your chart with a special kit for dealing with each planetary transit. For example, your Mars kit includes a sword, a copy of Rambo, an army knife, a chip for your shoulder and health insurance for yourself and others. Have fun-and even a few laughs-while you learn to create a better future by understanding how your transits work and how you can direct that energy in a positive way to improve your future prospects.
A book for astrology's future. A fresh approach to cycles that acknowledges the subtler, background energy at work in our evolving lives. The Western equivalent of Vedic planetary periods There is a lingering effect of the transmissions from the outer three planets that the personality must incorporate, develop and evolve over a span of time or Resonance Phase. This evolution takes longer than the actual ending of the mathematical transit as we know it. Time is a continuum and your natal chart resonates with the past as well as the future. Numerical links (by degree) in every chart correspond to both the past and to the future - a continuum of energy reaching backwards and forwards in time, to which we are always responding on subtler, background levels.
We are increasingly brought face to face with the fact that everything is interconnected. Astrology has long recognised this basic inter-connectedness, and indeed provides the mechanism of the birth chart, enabling some understanding of that relationship between the individual person and the collective whole. The 'timing' system of Age Progression through the Life Clock is perhaps the most sophisticated astrological approach to understanding the psychologically significant life experiences that are reflected in the birth chart. It was developed after extensive research by Swiss astrologer/psychologists Bruno & Louise Huber. You can use Age Progression to seek meaning in the jumble of events in your life. It can show what sort of influences are likely to be at work at different stages of this particular lifetime. As you give meaning to particular times of your life, you tell stories of how things are and how they might be. Naturally this helps in navigating your way forwards through life. Of course, you can use Age Progression in consultation with a friend or client. Many practitioners regard it as a 'gilt edged' technique saving many hours of counselling. In this book, Joyce Hopewell explores the different facets of Age Progression, illuminated by extensive examples, to help you to understand how to apply it to yourself and to helping others.
Suzan Donleavy's The Whirling Winds: Suffering and Transcendence in the Movement of Energy reports the findings of a study which presents new and important astrological information. It is believed that knowledge of the movement of energy illustrated by the "Whirling Winds" motif was once known, and has been lost for millennia. Its rediscovery offers us the possibility of considering our lives from a new perspective, a perspective closer to an objective view of reality. In addition to providing a broader intellectual viewpoint, understanding the inexorable movement of energy described in The Whirling Winds can free us from what is often most painful within the sphere of personal relationships: the turning wheel of attraction and repulsion. This understanding can also help us to appreciate our waxing and waning physical, mental, and emotional energy levels. The Whirling Winds offers readers a method for identifying the sensation of lunar and solar transits and for verifying the results of the study for themselves, and in their own lives. The organic understanding that we are all participants in a greater cosmic-environmental system may provoke a deeper questioning about our role in this large-scale energy exchange. And these questions can be a real starting point for a new level of exploration.

The Moon Sign is one of the most important astrological features, but only a few people know their Moon Sign. The book explains how to find out your Moon Sign and shows on many examples how it works in the lives of celebrities. The knowledge of your Moon Sign will help you to discover your hidden talents, to better understand people around you, and to live a healthier and happier life. So what the Moon Sign is? You probably know your "star sign" which is defined from the date of birth - when reading a "horoscope" in a newspaper or a magazine, you select the one for your "star sign." In fact, "star sign" is just a marketing term introduced by newspapers and magazines, it doesn't exist in real astrology. The astrological characteristic misnamed as "star sign" is actually the Sun Sign, i.e. the sign of the zodiac in which the Sun was situated at the moment of your birth. Okay, so you already know your Sun Sign, but still, what is the Moon Sign? It's the sign of the zodiac through which the Moon was traveling at the moment when you were born. The Moon is somewhat underestimated in Western Astrology but it is considered to be the main celestial body in Hindu Astrology, with its uninterrupted, thousands years old tradition. Once you discover your Moon Sign, you'll feel like you've recognised something important, essential about yourself. You'll better understand your strengths an weaknesses and, if you want to dive that deep, you might even discover why you have chosen to live this life. These are just a few curious facts from the book: * Both Bill Gates and Steve Jobs have pioneering Aries for their Moon Sign. * Angelina Jolie and her father, Jon Voight, also share the same Moon Sign, and also Aries. * Moon in Taurus gave the world some of the most popular authors including O. Henry, Alexandre Dumas, Ian Fleming and Hans Christian Andersen. * Quite surprisingly, the Moon in Taurus also gave the world some of the prominent mystics: Edgar Cayce, Carlos Castaneda, Emanuel Swedenborg, Jane Roberts. Carl Gustav Jung was also born with the Moon in Taurus, and some people could say he was also a mystic. * Gemini is the Moon Sign of the many of the prominent world's leaders including Simon Bolivar, Catherine the Great, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Helmut Kohl. And you know what? Barack Obama is also in this company. * Moon in Cancer gave birth to a whole presidential dynasty Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Eleanor Roosevelt were all born with the Moon in Cancer. * Here is another Moon Sign presidential connection: both George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush have diplomatic Libra for their Moon Sign. * Some of the coolest movie heroes - Arnold Schwarzenegger, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, George Clooney - were all born with the Moon in Capricorn. In the book, you will find many more surprises and discoveries. It will also teach you: * how to find out where the Moon is on the daily basis, and how to use that knowledge to make your life happier and more efficient; * how to find a partner with whom you will live happily for many years; * how to choose the safest day for a surgery, * and many other things.
In The Plain Vanilla Astrologer you'll read about a wide variety of astrological techniques in common use by most astrologers, but you'll also learn about several older methods found in very few, if any, other current books. You'll view 33 charts as Pat Geisler tells you about them. Her style is informal, while still very informative, and sometimes sparks a chuckle-such that the reader can easily imagine how it could feel to be a student in a class Pat is teaching-and enjoying it very much, while also gaining a wealth of useful information. This is not a book for new beginners. It assumes that the reader knows at least the introductory basics of astrology. It covers a wealth of astrological techniques in a way that illuminates them.
Pagan Astrology for the Spirit and Soul explores and emphasizes an astrology that emphasizes the Moon and the dynamics of polarity in the form of masculine-feminine relationships. This non-traditional approach to astrology is both fun and enlightening, opening the heart and mind to new insights in the birth chart using the symbolism of a Wiccan coven. Ideal for pagan divinatory studies, it has much to offer all astrologers. Designed to trigger the reader's intuitive gifts through words as imagery, Pagan Astrology for the Spirit and Soul takes a close look at each of the planets, placing them in the context of the time-honored roles of the coven. In this context Alice Miller presents the human personality as a coven, a blueprint for the whole being. Each planet is explored through its sign position and role, with special attention given to the section on the outer planets and the incoming Age of Aquarius. The planets: The Moon: The High Priestess Moon; The Sun: The High Priest; Venus: The Maiden; Mars: The Maiden's Working Partner; Mercury: The Fetch; Jupiter: Mercury's Partner; Saturn: The Traditionalist; Uranus: Saturn's Partner; Neptune: The Subconscious Master; Pluto: Mother of Rebirth.
Detectives and CSI crews may work for weeks, months, sometimes years searching and piecing together forensic evidence to find the vital clues in solving a crime. With the use of planetary positions, houses, fixed stars and Arabic parts, forensic astrology gives investigators a head-start in discovering valuable information that can hasten crime solving. In "Forensics by the Stars," author B. D. Salerno, an astrologer for more than twenty years, provides insight into the fascinating world of solving crimes and understanding both natural and manmade disasters by applying astrological science to interpreting event charts and revealing the clues they contain. Providing interesting insights, "Forensics by the Stars" analyzes the murder of Marilyn Monroe, the Lindbergh kidnapping, several missing persons cases, and a number of natural and manmade disasters. Salerno explains how to interpret the event horoscopes and astrologic charts to help understand the outcome of certain events. Like threads of carpeting, blood spatter, or fingerprints, forensic astrology can reveal an astonishing amount of detail about an event.
Throughout history, astrology was considered a scholarly tradition, relied upon by world leaders, philosophers and spiritual teachers to guide civilizations in all areas of life. Historically, astrology was accepted in political and academic contexts, and was connected with astronomy, alchemy, meteorology and medicine. Although since the end of the 17th century, science called astrology into question, many scholars are now reviving its role in shaping our understanding of the world. Buddhist Astrology is a form of archetypal astrology that helps us understand the role of the cosmic cycles in relation to our understanding and identification with Buddhist philosophy and mythology. It helps us understand the role of interdependence, a primary Buddhist belief, with our personal genetics, family history, education, and other social and cultural influences. Buddhist Astrology recognizes that there is a critical need to balance the physical world around us with conditions we were born into, from a karmic or cosmic perspective. The interdependence of these factors makes us able to live in a world full of choices while honoring the basic dynamic trends pulling us in one direction or another. |
