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.
