Using her background as a psychotherapist and astrologer, Gisele Terry has combined the developmental theories of psychology and astrology to create the lunar return model of development. This model of development focuses on the natal Moon, the progressed Moon, and the cycles of the progressed Moon through the zodiac. "I began to see the progressed Moon as an indicator of a client's here and now emotional focus," said Gisele. "Thus the position of the progressed Moon, its sign and placement in the chart, became a starting point and provided additional access to the meaning of the charts." The Progressed Moon Around the Zodiac is divided into three sections, each of which guides you progressively through the lunar return model of development and its practical uses in chart reading: The first explains how ideas about development in astrology correspond with psychological theories of development and form the foundation of the lunar return model of development. The second describes this model in detail and uses case examples. The third illustrates the application of the lunar return model of development in clients' natal and progressed charts, and also presents the possibility of a universal template for human development.

In ABC Basic Chart Reading, well-known astrologer Lynne Palmer has created the ideal guide to chart reading for students at all levels as well as practicing astrologers. Using harmonious and discordant aspects in combination with the houses, house rulers, and planets, she explains and simplifies the steps involved in reading and interpreting any chart. By combining all of these factors while using her step-by-step method, you can easily gain insight into the individual. ABC Basic Chart Reading includes extensive lists of people, events, situations, and traits associated with each house and planet. In addition, the chapter on planets has descriptions that express both the higher and lower vibrations of each planet's energy. Using these planetary descriptions, which are divided into two categories (harmonious and discordant), you'll find it easy to identify the many factors that describe the individual, and to take your chart interpretation skills to a new level of excellence.

The author appropriately terms planetary directions as co-determinants of fate. Rather than view directions as simply fateful, he sees them as life companions along with the many other circumstances, conditions, and influences that shape life and human destiny. With this central philosophy in mind, the author first defines planetary directions and their significance in astrological forecasting. More than 100 examples illustrate the important planetary factors involved in both favorable and unfavorable relationships, separations, births, miscarriages, accidents and injuries, illness and surgery, and success and failure. There are also chapters devoted to directions involving Mars-Jupiter, Jupiter-Pluto, Uranus-Pluto, Mars-Neptune, and Saturn-Sun. Extensive appendices include a quick reference guide for directions involved in many specific life events.

The North and South Nodes, as guideposts of the spirit, have long been viewed as a karmic factor in the natal horoscope. Through them the individual can gain a fuller meaning of this life's purpose as well as insights into how to best accomplish and achieve the resolution of past karma. The soul, as a separate entity from the spirit, is the main body force in each individual. It is located just outside the material body and above the head. The spirit is a product of the soul created by a combination of soul and spirit forces, and is located within each individual. The soul is the giver of life to the spirit and it is the spirit that possesses those traits which belong to each and every human being. In this book, Cynthia Bohannon, explains the influences of the North and South Nodes in the signs and the houses, and in conjunction to the planets, Vulcan, and Persephone. She also includes separate chapters devoted to the North Node conjunct Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and the Moon and Neptune. Specific chapters devoted to the South Node include its conjunction to Saturn in the signs, Uranus in the signs, Neptune in the signs, Pluto in the signs, and Lilith in the signs. Insights are offered for each regarding how to resolve the message of the Nodes. Other chapters focus on the transiting planets conjunct the natal South Node, and the Saturn-Uranus conjunction in the houses. This book concludes with an Appendix, Dealing with Emotions.

In 1917 at the height of his fame, Alan Leo was charged with fortune-telling, which was illegal, and taken to court. He had been tried on similar charges in 1914, which had been dismissed. But the charges brought in 1917 stuck. Leo was given a hefty fine. As winning on appeal seemed unlikely, Leo paid the fine and went to Cornwall for a rest, where on 30 August, 1917, he unexpectedly died of a cerebral hemorrhage, aged 57. His friends blamed it on the strain of the court proceedings.At the time of his death, this Dictionary was one of Leo's unfinished projects. Installments of the Dictionary had appeared in Leo's monthly magazine, Modern Astrology, up to the end of the article "Horoscope" (pgs. 130-136). That the project was long-standing is hinted by the article on Hindu Astrology (pgs. 76-101), written by Sepharial some years before and which Leo had presumably purloined. More material was in preparation, but Leo's untimely death brought matters to a halt.By the early 1920's, Vivian Robson had succeeded Leo as editor of Modern Astrology, a post he shared with Bessie Leo, the widow. An intense, scholarly type, Robson stumbled across bound copies of Leo's incomplete book while he was compiling his own astrological dictionary. At the suggestion of Bessie, Robson abandoned his dictionary and set about to complete Leo's, using the many notes and fragments that Leo had left.Which was published in 1929 as Alan Leo's final book. Shortly thereafter Bessie and Vivian had a falling out, whereupon Vivian left. This book was to be an orphan.Like its precursor, James Wilson's Dictionary of Astrology of 1819, Leo's book contains several full-blown monographs. Both books have lengthy entries on Horary Astrology, for example. These articles tend to break the flow of the book. For this reason the current publishers, Astro-America, have added headings to each page, that the reader may know whereabouts in the book he may be. The publishers have also added a list of principal articles to the front, as well as a complete list of entries (forming an index) in the back.Alan Leo's Dictionary of Astrology is again in print.

Transits are defined as the daily motion of the planets as they travel through the zodiac in their path through the heavens. As they pass through the signs, they transit each house in a natal chart and aspect each planetary position. It is these transits that activate the chart, creating opportunities for the individual as well as potentially difficult situations. Through this advance knowledge, the individual can plan and then act or react in the most beneficial manner.This volume contains delineation for each planet as it transits each house and aspects each planet in the horoscope. In addition to major aspects (conjunction, sextile, trine, square and opposition) to the planets, the author delineates aspects involving the North and South Nodes, and the Part of Fortune.Also included is the parallel of declination, an aspect of importance that is found in few astrology books.A quick reference gives keywords for each house and planet.

Each principle and technique is illustrated with examples. Each of the book's sections focuses on a specific factor of horoscope interpretation. The Morin Method is a practical and useful set of rules that results in accurate chart interpretation. Familiarity with the Astrologia Gallica, the works of John-Baptiste Morin, although desirable, is unnecessary in order to use the Morin Method of Horoscope Interpretation. Section I covers planetary powers, including theory of determinations, houses, signs, planets, essential dignities and debilities, natural and acquired analogy, and analogy of the planets with the houses. Section II explains the cosmic state of the planets in relationship with the houses. Topics covered are benefic and malefic planets, dispositors, peregrine planets, determination through house position and rulership, cause and effect, conjunctions, and determining combination by analogy. Section III discusses the Morin Method regarding determination by actual location, empty house judgment, affairs signified by the houses, determination and evaluation of the effect of a planet in a house, the houses of life and death, and the power of aspects. The book concludes with numerous charts for study. "To my knowledge this book is the best available instruction manual for the Morin Method."-James Herschel Holden, translator of eleven books of the Astrologia Gallica series by John-Baptiste Morin

Ancient myths describe an eclipse as the Sun or Moon being swallowed by a dragon. Since an eclipse could only occur near the lunar nodes, these became the head and tail of the dragon. Older references and eastern astrology still call the Moon's North Node the Dragon's Head and the South Node the Dragon's Tail. The Node Book goes beyond detailed information about the Moon's Nodes in signs and houses. Also included are chapters focused on the planetary nodes of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Pluto, and the nodes of the four main asteroids: Ceres, Vesta, Juno, and Pallas. Extensive tables and directions for their use make it easy to find the nodes for the planets and asteroids.
