Grant Lewi was the inspiration for a practical astrology. Nowhere is this more clear than in his work on transits -- the keys to astrological prediction -- as covered in this masterwork. He explains lifetime phenomena in terms of growth, development, and the process of becoming. His insights about the transit of Saturn literally transformed astrological understanding, teaching, and implementation everywhere. Updated tables. A classic.
Like all other books on astrology I've read before, this is a work book but more in a traditional sense. Awesome of this one is that it include two short histories - one about astrology in the twentieth century and the other about astrology and the computer - these I found very interesting. Other than that it was nice to work out the signs under the Moon (as oppose to only the Sun) and the dominant planets. I also understand certain other parts of astrology better, it was explained more simply by Lewi than any of the others I read before. As someone who have no ambition of becoming an astrologer I found it pleasant to read and work with
