Book Description

October 8, 1995
This reference work includes the 4000 named asteroids. Asteroids carry the vibrational energy of their names, and because asteroid names relate to most persons, places and objects on the Earth, such as Monica (number 833), Chicago (number 334), and Toyota (number 3533), they also relate to events in the lives of these persons, places or objects. Astrologically, asteroids represent the gate to the individual. Personally named asteroids can define an identity that is more intimate than any other cosmic symbol. While traditional horoscopes are helpful vehicles for understanding, placing asteroids in the chart explicitly for people and places by name adds a new dimension. This book answers such questions as: is there an asteroid with the reader's name on it? how do asteroids named for people in your life reflect actual experiences? and have persons with certain names usually been good for you, or bad for you?

5.0 out of 5 stars A correction to my former review..., June 11, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Asteroid Name Encyclopedia (Paperback)
When I wrote my first review I did not realize how much I would depend on this book as I advanced in my study of astrology. Now when I come across the name of an asteroid that was discovered before this book was published in 1995, I can find the asteroid listed with its number, history and glyph. I have come to depend on this book more than any other of my reference books and I want to apologize for giving such a lukewarm review the first time. I highly recommend this reference book for anyone studying astrology. It would be great if an update were published in the next few years to include the asteroids discovered since 1995.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for astrologers, January 14, 2010
This review is from: Asteroid Name Encyclopedia (Paperback)
This is an excellent book. I was actually the person who got Jacob Schwartz interested in asteroids. His research on the subject is second to none.

It is with a sad heart that I report the passing of Dr. Jacob Schwartz on January 13, 2010.
