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.

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.
Aspects to Horoscope Angles focuses on the influence of the planets
in aspect to three of the angles of the horoscope: the Midheaven,
the Ascendant, and the Vertex. Included is delineation of the
planets in aspect to the Midheaven and Ascendant. The author also
emphasizes the use of the angles in the rectification of a birth
time. 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.
Long out of print and hard to find, this is the most celebrated
book on eclipses of the last seventy years. In this book, learn the
unique astronomical factors that create eclipses and why some
eclipses are total while others are not. Learn how the Chaldeans
discovered the Saros cycle in the sixth century BC, which is still
in use today. Learn how the Greeks discovered the Metonic cycle.
Find out how the Saros cycle is used in forecasting the effects of
eclipses. Jansky gives the astrological key for all 19 of the Saros
series. The author uses his understanding of eclipse mechanics in
analysis. He uses the twelve houses of the chart, planets conjunct
and opposed, the Saros series, fixed stars conjunct the eclipse as
well as stars rising or setting on the horizon
(ascendant/descendant), the planetary ruler, and the path of the
Moon's shadow (the umbra) as it races across the earth during the
eclipse itself. Jansky's interpretation of eclipses is rooted in
Transactional Analysis (what I do to you becomes what you do to me,
etc.), which, astrologically, is the study of polarities, which is
what lunar and solar eclipses literally represent, and how these
polarities, expressed as opposing signs and houses, can be resolved
in terms of human relationships. Jansky delves into the
astrological duration of an eclipse, prenatal eclipses, eclipses in
rectification and eclipses and health. For case studies he tells of
an eclipse-driven corporate crisis at his employer and how it
impacted him, his fellow employees, and the management. In the data
section, solar eclipses for the 20th century: Date, degree of the
zodiac, total, partial or annular, and the Saros number. Also,
longitudes of major fixed stars and general and medical
bibliographies. A comprehensive book on eclipses. A must-have.
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.

PA-cum-stage director, offering you the best timely cues to raise
your game professionally, romantically, socially and financially.
Surf the right moments in life and suddenly all the challenges and
obstacles become that little bit easier to navigate. Victor Olliver
is one of the UK's leading media and consultant astrologers with a
weekly star-signs column in the legendary The Lady magazine and a
weekly astrology segment on global radio Apple-FM. Rachel Johnson
in The Mail on Sunday profiled his work in 2012. And his many
accurate forecasts include the outcome of the US presidential and
London mayoral elections in 2012 as well as the safe landing and
success of NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity. Victor says:
"I wrote Lifesurfing for people who are both playful and ambitious,
who don't take everything they read and hear as gospel, but who
judge things for themselves and can discriminate. Even to the
sceptic I would say: 'Put astrology to the test for a year and see
for yourself how it identifies the right moments to strike.'" He
adds: "To underline the fact that Lifesurfing takes a fresh
approach, I asked for a book cover that does not feature stars,
constellations, horoscope wheels and glyphs or mediaeval artwork
featuring naked stone virgins." Molly Parkin, who writes the
foreword as a fervent follower of astrology, is one of the world's
leading style icons and a celebrated painter, poet, novelist and TV
talking head. As fashion editor of Nova, Harpers & Queen and
The Sunday Times she pioneered cutting-edge boho looks before
producing a series of erotic fiction bestsellers in the '70s and
'80s. In May 2012 she was awarded a Civil List Pension by the Queen
for her services to the arts. Work is in progress to stage a
musical and produce a movie of her extraordinary life. Her personal
