The Combination of Stellar Influences is a well-known and popular book that explains the development of cosmobiology, which uses the 90-degree dial, and teaches the methods of this progressive school of astrology. Through the interpretation of the stellar bodies and other astronomical points in the individual's chart, emphasis is placed on the cosmobiological character and the shaping of destiny. The delineation of the various combinations and mid-points is well-defined, easy to follow and to the point. Learn the basic influence and principle characteristics of planetary combinations, as well as their psychological, biological and sociological correspondence and probable manifestation in natal and predictive astrology.

Format:Paperback
A weird book but really quite incredibly on the money. It has profoundly influenced half a century of astrologers of all types and cannot be ignored. The tone (from WW II Germany) can be very dark, but the pithy summaries for each midpoint combination are uncanny. Ebertin was originally a Hamburg School "Uranian" and pupil of Witte; he branched off his own school, called "Cosmobiology," which is another Uranian system. As with Witte, dials and midpoints usurp the place of house delineation, which he ignores--but the book is nevertheless in the library of almost every professional astrologer, even those who have no interest or background in Uranian methods at all.

If you only ever had one astrology book, this would be the one to choose. Ebertin's book is concise, exact, precise... exactly what you would expect from a German astrologer. He teaches the most sophisticated astrology in a very simple and direct manner. I have my students begin with this book even though many even professional astrologers think that midpoint techniques are very, very advanced. To me, they are the backbone of the chart and from them the chart makes perfect sense. Try it; you'll like it. Personality factors that were not clear before will become perfectly clear. Timing is exact with midpoints. Ebertin's astrology *works*!!! Elegant, lovely, I can't say enough about Ebertin and this book.

Even if you don't use midpoints in your charts, the information in this classic book is invaluable.
Ebertin gives psychological correspondances (pos & neg), as well as the sociological & biological correspondances for all pairs of planets as well as each planet with Asc, Mc, & North Node. Each planetary position, plus Asc/Mc/NN placements are given by sign and house.
'Probable manifestations' are listed for each combo, & you will find some basic info for every planet--also the psychological, sociological, & biological correspondances for them (which are useful for medical questions, too. Ex: Uranus = pituitary gland, Neptune = pineal gland...that sort of thing).
Much knowledge in a small package--definitely a gem!
