In Astrology it has long been known that the sign of the zodiac,
rising in the east at birth (the ascending sign), largely
determines physical appearance. In this book David Anrias shows
what each sign looks like when rising. He goes further and,
dividing each sign into 10 degree sections (known as "decanates"),
shows how appearance changes, from early degrees, to middle
degrees, to late degrees of the same sign. All 36 drawings are by
the author himself, who was an accomplished artist and a keen
observer. Twelve of these you will find in the frontispiece, the
remaining 24 are in Book 1, chapter 7. While other artists have
sketched the twelve basic types, and one or two have given
variations on some of them, Anrias is the only astrological
artist/writer to make systematic sketches of all 36
variations.Anrias follows this with deft character sketches. If a
given decanate (the third decanate of Libra, for example) produces
a distinct face, it also produces a distinct personality. Of this
book, Dr. H., of Regulus Astrology LLC (author of A Rectification
Manual; America is Born) writes, "I find Anrias' use of the decans
based on triplicities more accurate than Chaldean decans for
application in physiognomy judgments."DAVID ANRIAS, the pen-name of
Brian Ross, served with the British forces in World War I. A
natural sensitive, after the war he joined the Theosophical
Society, studied in India, and wasassociated with Jiddu
Krishnamurti's ill-fated Order of the Star in the East. He
strenuously disagreed with Krishnamurti's decision to dissolve it.
Anrias's intense study of theosophy and metaphysics enlivens his
astrology, making his book most fascinatingreading.
