Description

Originally published in 1945, this easy to understand beginners guide is an in depth investigation of astrological symbolism. It demystifies astrological prediction, and relates theoretical understanding to the experience and practical concerns of the reader. At each stage of the book, Dr Jones anticipates and answers the readers' questions, so that the explanation of the houses, signs and planets of the horoscope becomes a guide that even a beginner can understand and apply. Every element of the horoscope is illustrated in terms of everyday living, and each technical detail is lucidly explained. From the most specific human concerns to the universal, topics discussed include: Twelve Tribes of Individuality; Basic Factors of Delineation; The Houses, Signs and Planets; The Magic of the Hemispheres; The Divinity of Difference. This classic text has demonstrated its value in serving the needs of students and friends of astrology for almost 50 years.… (more)
