Back in print In a fine new paperback edition, this is the best of
the many astro-reference books, one you will use constantly. Among
thousands of entries are the complete terminologies for natal,
mundane, electional & horary astrologies, as well as definitive
articles on Arabian Parts, Aspects, Calendars, Cycles, Degrees,
Dignities, Directions, Eclipses, Houses, Planets, Ptolemaic
Astrology, Retrogrades, Ruling signs of major cities, Signs of the
Zodiac, the Solar System, and much more. The section on eclipses
runs 36 pages & includes solar & lunar eclipses from
1800-2000 listed by date & by zodiacal degree. It includes the
19 Saros cycles from 600 AD to 2100 AD. Under Degrees, deVore gives
degree meanings similar to those of Carter. In the extensive entry
on Houses, he gives the meanings for each house, in natal, mundane
& (depending on the house) various other situations: In a court
of law, in an organization, in an ingress, in a national figure,
etc. The entry for the Invariable Plane (one of several
contributions by Charles Harvey) is a fascinating discussion of
(among other things) Mahayuga, Root Races & solar eclipses in
ancient Palestine. There is a fine, 9 page analysis of Ptolemaic
astrology, along with how the Galactic Center relates to the Solar
System, as well as definitive entries on every other facet of
astrology. Complete, concise, informative, highly intelligent: Long
a classic, still essential for all astrologers. Nicholas de Vore,
1882-1960, was President of the New York based Astrological
Research Society.
