The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need, CD-rom Edition

by: Joanna Martine Woolfolk

If you are just beginning to study astrology and are looking for a book with ALL the basics, this is a great start. I always recommend this book to starters. I am deep into astrology and when my friends ask me how to begin, I tell them this book without hesitation. I have a library of books on the subject and I love many of them - although, if I were to pick one book to help one begin learning astrology, this is the one. However, when one becomes advanced with astrology this book leaves many questions unanswered. For example, it does not go in depth about retrogrades, nodes, or the part of fortune. Someone else mentioned Schulman and I 100% agree that he goes in depth with books on EACH of these subjects for the advanced astrologer. -- Stacie L. Henehan (New Albany, IN USA)

Astrology for Yourself: How to Understand And Interpret Your Own Birth Chart

by: Douglas Bloch, Demetra George

I have not ever found a better astrology book for those people who simply want to understand their own chart. They don't want to wade knee deep through understanding the possible planet/sign/house/aspect combinations for the rest of the world. (or they don't want to dedicate the number of years it takes to become adept). This book can take them from zero understanding to a respect and deepened understanding of their own chart. It is also one of the best beginner books I have ever seen for those people who do want to begin a more dedicated study of astrology. Organized, well put together and in a logical and manageable order. I teach an intro to astrology course and am constantly asked which book I'd recommend for the students to delve into their own charts. This is the only one I've found out of a rather extensive personal library. Grab your copies while you're still able to find them or hope for a reprint on this amazing book. Intermediate students can also use it to further their depth of study. -- Jillianne Simpson (New York)

Chinese Astrology Plain and Simple

by: Suzanne White

Have you felt miffed and somewhat insulted in the past when someone told you that you were an animal? Wouldn't it be enlightening to find out just what kind of an animal you are? In Suzanne White's your beast. The book, as the name implies, is easy to understand and fun to read. For those who feel jaded and lackluster about everyday life, this book brings incredible insight detailing the different personas determined by the year in which you were born. The chapters also include a sub-category which combines your Western and Eastern signs to provide specialized info and a separate read for both the females and the males of the Chinese chart. Authoress Suzanne White sprinkles the book with stories of Horses, Tigers, Goats (...and so on!) she has known throughout her life, safeguarding the book against the dry and clinical air so many non-fiction books assume. You will learn compatabilities in affairs of the heart, social affairs, business affairs, and family affairs. And if all these juicy tidbits weren't enough, the best gift of all is bestowed upon the reader... the grand finale of the book tells what each year holds in store for your sign! Whether you have an passionate interest in astrology, or just like an amusing (and INTERESTING) read, I highly recommend Plain and Simple. This was Suzanne White's first book, and it is certainly no accident that it was plucked back out and re-printed for a whole new group of fans to devour! -- M. Mcdonald "Miss P" (Kauai, Hawaii)

A Thousand Suns: Designing Your Future with Vedic Astrology

by: Linda Johnsen

This book is best suited for absolute beginners to Vedic Astrology. If you don't have your Vedic astrology chart, the book guides you how to compose it based on Western astrology chart - roughly by deducting 23 degrees - specific degrees are listed for each year from 1930 - 2029. The book contains blank forms which you can fill in with your personal information as you follow along. What you'll learn in this book are descriptions of vedic signs, planets, houses, 12 adityas, qualities of the vedic houses, 27 nakshastras, how to gauge planetary strenghts and weaknesses, how to find several yogas, take a glance at few vedic subcharts, as well as dashas.

Explanation of points is further elucidated through several sample charts related both to people and to events.

Once you have a glimpse into your own chart, you can look at different remendial measures such as using mantras, fire rituals (yagyas), prayers to appropriate aspect of Divine, engaging in selfless service, and generally living as a spiritually conscious being.

This book is written in a simple language and is entertaining to read. There is also a lot of good, common-sense advice and Linda has managed to put astrology in a proper perspective, as a tool that helps the individual to navigate successfully through life. The idea is to make the most with your talents and well, if you find it's going to rain, you prepare yourself and get an umbrella before you go out, instead of bemoaning your destiny. There's always something you can do to live fulfilling life and about half of this book is dedicated to taking constructive action. -- Laura De Giorgio (Canada)
