  • The Essential Dignities
  • The Houses
  • The Aspects
  • Chart Dynamics
  • The Condition of the Planets
  • The Fixed Stars
  • The Parts
  • The Power of the Planets

Using this traditional method, it is possible not only to thoroughly and completely read the matal chart but to do sowith a breadth and depth of meaning not found in the modern methods of astrological interpretation. It avoids cookbook-ype methods and centers on the practical understanding of the astrological concepts,presenting the Tradition in present-day language. In addition, more than two hundred fifty illustrations make the traditional principles easy to understand and use in chart interpretation

This practical how-to book is one of a kind, and the one that will teach you the traditional methods and you reach into the past to benefie from the knowledge of the medieval period.
