This book has not yet received the attention it deserves. The author presents a model of personality development that correlates psychological research with planetary cycles. The result is a fascinating account of human development as seen in the unfolding of the natal chart. The ideas are fresh, novel, and compelling. No matter what your level of astrological expertise, Scofield's text will enhance your understanding of the birth chart. This is a book every astrologer should read, and I recommend it highly.

I've recently become insterested in Astrology after reading Richard Tarnas's opus "Cosmos and Psyche". This semester I was enrolled in a Developmental Psychology course and I thought, there must be a way this material can be modeled with Astrology. Half way thru writing my paper for the class based on that idea, I came across this book. Scofield has already laid the groundwork here for this fascinating area of study. I'd recommend this book to any student of Astrology or Psychology with an open mind.
