    2 Donna Cunningham’s Books on the Outer Planets If you’re dealing with a stellium that contains one or more outer planets, these ebooks will help you understand their role in your chart and explore ways to change difficult patterns they represent. Since The Stellium Handbook can’t cover them in the depth they deserve, you’ll gain a greater perspective through these ebooks that devote entire chapters to the meanings of Uranus, Neptune, or Pluto in a variety of contexts. The Outer Planets and Inner Life volumes are $15 each if purchased separately, or $35 for all three—a $10 savings.

If your stellium has outer planets in the career houses (2nd, 6th, or 10th), or if it relates to your chosen career, this book can give you helpful insights. There’s an otherworldly element when the outer planets are career markers, a sense of serving a greater purpose in human history. Each chapter of this e-book explores one of these planets in depth. See an excerpt here. The Outer Planets and Inner Life, v.2: Outer Planet Aspects to Venus and Mars.

  • Astro 101 Free E-Book
    All material copyright 2004-2011 by Gloria Star. All rights reserved Gloria Star — A Biographical Sketch It was not my plan to become an astrologer. In fact, like most people I knew very little about “real” astrology when I was growing up. By the time I entered college — (when I, of course, knew everything!) — a friend was always talking about her amazement with astrology. “You’re way too smart to fall for that!” I told her. So, she challenged me, and I took the bait. I set out to disprove astrology. Imagine my surprise when, after setting up an empirical study of the subject, I began to realize that there was real substance to this ancient system of understanding life. Coupled with my academic endeavors in the fi elds of nursing, secondary education and psychology — the study of astrology and metaphysics was a perfect compliment. I began my work as a professional astrologer in the 1970s, and thus far the journey has been life- transforming. My clients have been my best teachers, and although I have taught countless classes in astrology, metaphysics and life enrichment — it is the process itself that has been most enriching and consciousness-expanding. Part of my quest has led me to write, and in the past seventeen years I’ve written, edited or contributed to 29 astrology books, annuals and anthologies. Among these, Astrology: Woman to Woman, Optimum Child (revised as Astrology & Your Child), and the Llewellyn Sun Sign and Moon Sign Books are probably the best known. Several of my books have been translated into other languages beyond English.

Both the zodiac and natal astrology appear to be fully formed by the 5th century BCE. Tycho Brahe and Kepler achieved great breakthroughs in astronomical observation and the systematic development of scientific laws, but were also both practitioners of astrology. The following table summarizes the rulership by the seven classically known planets [21] of each of the twelve astrological signs, [22] together with their effects on world events, people and the earth itself as understood in the Middle Ages. The leading astronomers were also astrologers. Toni Dore says:. It signifies a person's awakening consciousness, in the same way that the Sun's appearance on the eastern horizon signifies the dawn of a new day. Share this: Facebook Twitter Reddit Email. Friend Reviews. An enormous amount of ancient astrological knowledge survived the fall of Rome thanks to the emerging Arab culture. Universe - Galaxies and Stars. Sidereal astrology uses a fixed starting point in the background of stars, while tropical astrology , used by the majority of Western astrologers, chooses as a starting point the position of the Sun against the background of stars at the Northern hemisphere vernal equinox i. Nicholas Campion examines the foundation of modern astrology in the medieval and Renaissance worlds.
