by James Braha, Gustave Doré (Illustrator)

New, from the author of ANCIENT HINDU ASTROLOGY FOR THE MODERN WESTERN ASTROLOGER, a hard hitting, plain spoken guide to interpreting the planetary aspects in Western astrology.

It is the most comprehensive work on the subject to date, & includes 23 descriptive pages on the Moon s nodes in the signs & houses. Exquisitely designed, with gold embossed cover & 21 full size Gustave Dore illustrations. DIAMOND FIRE ASTROLOGY MAGAZINE "This book is more than just another well written book on aspects. It is a work of art. The book is lavishly illustrated with angelic, celestial pictures. And it includes quotes & aphorisms from the great figures of this age. The whole effect is to put the reader in an exalted frame of mind - a frame of mind where real learning & inspiration take place. The art alone is worth the price of the book. The aspect delineations are well written & astrologically accurate. The section on the nodes is one of the clearest explanations I have ever seen in print!"

One of the most informative and interesting astrology books I've come across, although I don't read much on astrology nowadays. For those people who are interested in finding astrology books that offer more than just cookie cutter recipes, this one highlights planetary aspects, which often seem to be overlooked.

Love love love! This will be a staple as I try to remember the meanings of the aspects!

Just received this book today. I've got maybe 15 astrology books, but actually got rid of the aspect cookbook-style ones I had. So I was in the market for one, but I wanted to find a really good one. My astrology teacher has easily more than 100 astrology books, and I've searched aspect interpretation online as well. This book is exactly what I was looking for- by far the best natal aspect interpretation I've encountered yet, this astrologer clearly has a lot of experience and understanding. This book is going to help me a lot to further understand the aspects of people in my life, and it's already shed light on my own aspects with how specific it describes behavior and psychology. It has way way more clarity than anything I've encountered so far.

I accidentally bought this because I thought this was a Vedic astrology book and not a Western astrology book. I still found it interesting even though I don't study Western astrology.
