Psychological Astrology Tips, Tools and Techniques

This book contains more of my approach to astrology with some wicked techniques to better understand your own chart and that of others. I have used both Placidus and Whole Sign house systems because some people don't like using Whole Sign exclusively.I have tried to get down to the bare bones of astrological calculations by including the Progressions. These are Solar Arc Directions and Secondary Progressed Moon. There is a fair bit of love in here too, with progressions, composite charts, synastry charts and an explanation of co-dependency. Love, yes, humans love to be in love, but there are like six kinds of love, so which is it going to be for you?You'll also find something on transits which is critical for astrology. Plus there is some material on Michel Gauquelin and his findings on how astrology matches family. You can do your own charts of your own family too, check him out and see what you find. There's a little on Carl Jung too, he pops up now and then in astrology. Did you know that he studied astrology quite extensively? Yep, he did a lot of charts for his clients but never wrote about it, not in his diaries and definitely not in his articles for the psychology profession. He was terrified of being ridiculed by his professional peers, and so he should have been, they are nasty. If they could take him down then his books would never be read and his extensive knowledge lost.I've often been criticised for not putting enough psychology into my work, and I am a psychologist too. The reason being that no two charts are the same. You can have the chart of a serial killer but be just a normal person living a normal life. So I've included three psychological disorders for those who want more - but remember, no two charts are the same. Finally I finish with a little on personal myths, those little dreams we have, and on defences. These came from Sigmund Freud and are wonderful guides to the intricacies of astrology, magic and psychodynamic theory.This has a good mixture of practical and theoretical knowledge gained from my 70 odd years of life. I think I've a few more books in me so keep your eyes peeled and feel free to email and ask me questions when you get stuck. In the meantime, good luck with your studies and enjoy, I think it is an excellent book.
