Midlife Is Not a Crisis combines astrology, inspiration, and wisdom about aging to empower people to live more fully in the second half of life. It is based on the generational life cycles we all share at certain ages, from the Saturn Return at 29 and Midlife, which peaks at 42, all the way to the Uranus Return at 84. These cycles are the great crossroads of life, and each cycle is a journey in itself. Strung together they offer a road map to life s most challenging and rewarding passages. In every decade there are trials, lessons, and losses; in this we have no choice. Our freedom lies in how we respond consciously or unconsciously, awake or asleep. The planet that governs each cycle acts as a wise elder or guide and holds the key to navigating the cycle successfully. This book tells the story of these cycles and provides a guide to living consciously and well.

We are aging differently from the way we did in the past we are not only living longer, we are staying healthy and vital longer as well. Midlife Is Not a Crisis motivates people to grow and prosper at any age. Ultimately it is a practical guidebook for our later years that shows us what to expect as we age and helps us make the most of our journey to becoming whole.

No 'doomed relationship' clutter the pages of this book. In this completely new, positive, and radically expanded edition of their classic book on the astrology of relationships, Steven and Jodie Forrest emphasise freedom of choice, honest communication, and mutual psychological understanding as the keys to satisfying, lasting intimacy. Jodie's Nordic-Celtic historical fantasy 'Rhymer' trilogy, beginning with 'The Rhymer and the Ravens', has drawn a large audience. Drawing on their twenty years of life together as well as countless hours with clients, the Forrests weave a coherent blend of astrology, modern psychology and reincarnation. Beginners as well as professional astrologers will particularly love the extensive and detailed 'cookbook' sketches of specific configurations. Saturn in your House of Marriage? Your Sun squares your partner's Venus? Just look it up. The first edition of 'Skymates' became a cult classic; this new one goes light years further.

A person whose life drifts away from the 'blueprint' of his or her birthchart grows dull, flat and depressed. It is the same for a couple -- if their life together departs from the spirit of their composite chart, their relationship runs out of gas. They stop talking. Sex evaporates. They would rather watch TV than look into each others' eyes. In this book the Forrests give you all the tools you need to explore this powerful astrological technique -- theory, real-life practical examples, and an extensive 'cookbook' section where you can jump-start your interpretations by looking up the precise meaning of any configuration. In the first volume of 'Skymates' they showed us how to compare charts. Now , they take it a step further, proving that the whole is always greater than the sum of the parts.

Behind your familiar astrological chart lurks another chart entirely, one whose existence you may never have suspected. It carries your treasures and your wounds. Where the astrologer's predictions and the realities of your life might not in all honesty have lined up, this chart-behind-the-chart will help you see why. This second, hidden chart tells the tale of who you were in a prior lifetime. It speaks of what wounded you then and what work you left undone. It warns of old ghosts that haunt you and the symptoms you experience when you let them grab the steering wheel of your life. This chart explains the reasons you have the chart you have today and it clarifies how you can get on with your evolutionary journey. In Yesterday s Sky, Steven Forrest completes the picture he began painting in his bestseller The Inner Sky over twenty-five years ago.

Humans have been meditating on the Moon since the beginning of our time on earth. As long as there has been anything we could call astrology, it has been central to all theories of celestial influence. But why do astrologers pay so little attention to its phases? In these pages, Steven Forrest, bestselling author of The Inner Sky, shows how we have been blinded to the lunar phases by a set of cultural attitudes now drifting into extinction. He demonstrates that our Celtic ancestors held the key to understanding lunar phase and he skillfully, clearly, and eloquently turns the key in that lock for us. Along the way, he also presents the latest research on the powerful but little used tools: the Out of Bounds Moon, lunar speed, and lunar parallax. You'll also find rare descriptions of the progressed lunation cycle, planetary phase angles and nodal phase. Discover the soul of the moon in this lucid explanation of the Moon's place in modern humanistic astrological counseling.

Steven Forrest, author of the award-winning and critically-acclaimed "The Inner Sky", follows that work with this empowering look at choice-centred "predictive" astrology -- an astrology in which we predict the questions people face at certain times, but never the answers they will give! The astrologer here is not so much a prophet as a coach. You are never confined to an inescapable fate. Instead the planets offer you a whirling kaleidoscope of possibilities, with your freedom and the power of your imagination in the driver's seat.
