Mapping the Psyche 2. díl

Více o knize

This book, a transcript of the first term of an introductory course in astrology given for the Centre for Psychological Astrology, is a new and exciting approach to the subject which every student, beginner or advanced, can learn from. In this first of three volumes, the basic building blocks of astrological language are presented, not in the dry, 'cookbook' manner which mars so many astrology texts, but in a lively and relaxed format punctuated by questions from students, making the material accessible, fluent, and immediately applicable to everyday life. The reader is taken on a fascinating journey through the solar system, the ancient planetary gods, and the energies and motivations symbolised by their astrological equivalents; and then through the signs of the zodiac, their elements and qualities, and the ways in which different planets express through them. The inclusion of the psychological dimension of human life, as well as the profound symbolism of alchemy as a parallel map of the individual journey, make this an exciting, in-depth exploration which will expand the understanding, not only of the student with no previous knowledge, but also of the msot experienced astrological practitioner.
