This review is from: The Only Way to Learn Astrology, Vol 1: Basic Principles (Paperback)

This book was highly recommended to me by a professional astrologer in the 80s when I first started studying astrology. I still refer to this book, and I'm glad to see that it's still available because I still recommend it to friends. The entire series is good, but this first installment is priceless. This first book helps you learn the language and the basic mechanics of astrology, and it is organized for easy reference. By the time you finish reading this book, you should be able to read a chart. Then you'll be ready to start a lifelong journey to continuously improve the art of practicing astrology!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best beginning book on Astrology I've seen, January 20, 1998

This is a "plain jane" book...no fancy cover, and not very big. It is direct and to the point. It will take you through the basics of astrology in as much depth as any other book I have looked out...but much quicker, with less side trips to confuse you along the way. If you are trying to learn how to interpet birth charts, this book is a Must!

This review is from: The Only Way to Learn Astrology, Vol 1: Basic Principles (Paperback)

This book is by far the best I have read when it comes to introducing astrology to people who have a serious interest. It goes through all the major principles of astrology in a clear and concise manner. It is structured by lessons as opposed to chapters and has a quiz at the end of each lesson. As you read more about astrology and become more experienced interpreting charts, you will want to read seperate books for each planet, or the nodes, etc., but I can't think of a better way to start.
