Book Description

March 20, 2001
The majority of horoscopes in current use are terribly wrong. Why? Because spiritual birth times, which are essential to producing an accurate horoscope according to Edgar Cayce, occur up to four-and-a-half hours before physical birth. That difference leaves aspects between planets about the same, but shifts all house cusps backward by up to one or two signs. Compared with most of today's faulty horoscopes, these "perfect horoscopes" match personas with awesome precision and provide greatly enhanced forecasting capabilities. This revolutionary book on astrology shows you how to (1) arrive at spiritual birth times, (2) apply two other fundamentals of astrology currently omitted from most horoscopes, and (3) verify your now totally functional horoscope.

Topics covered in this book include: Who in recorded history may have been responsible for the mistakes of astrology, and its subsequent fall from grace o How to calculate accurate, soul-chosen horoscopes; What steps can be taken to verify a soul chosen horoscope; Why progressions-not transits-mark the stepping-stones of life; When horoscopes can be used to confirm fundamentals and reject damaging false ideas (such as the "first breath" theory); Which concepts will change as we move from the Piscean Age of tolerant opinions to the Aquarian Age of benevolent intelligence.

About the Author

JOHN WILLNER, born on April 29,1925, is a retired senior scientist who led state-of-the-art technology projects throughout most of his career. But well before receiving advanced engineering degrees and entering his chosen profession, he became a proficient astrologer. An aunt provided the first astrology books to satisfy his reading interests between 1931 and 1937. Within five years he was doing work on fundamentals and absorbing the profound wisdom of exceptional teachers. Unknown to his peers, he successfully applied astrology to hiring professional employees, making important business decisions, selecting his marriage partner, and assisting other people who were aware of his involvement. Since his retirement, his primary interest has been the advancement of astrology, to return the field to the high level of respect it once held. In pursuit of this goal, he identified critical errors in popular horoscopes, gives proofs of correct methodologies, offers to adepts a mathematically intense computer program that produces exact spiritual birth times, and communicates the unmatched benefits of verified horoscopes that he has enjoyed for close to half a century.

5.0 out of 5 stars Willner solved the mystery, June 26, 2001
By 
Frederic W. Keil (Pottstown, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Perfect Horoscope: Following the Astrological Guidelines Established by Edgar Cayce (Paperback)
John Willner sticks to the subject and gets to the point regarding astrological truths. His research is verified about spiritual horoscopes. He proves the validity of spitiual horoscopes and offers a systematic approach to proving any horoscope. Astrology needs John Willner. Why? There is only one truth and John brings it out in his book. He solves the differences between Edgar Cayces' astrological readings and traditional non substantiated astrology. Astrology has been sloppy and un-proveable untill John Willner came along. Now a person can use Willners astrological methods as stepping stones to a superior life. Bottom-line John makes his case and backs it up 100%. The results are fantastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Horoscope: Excellent book!, January 9, 2002
By 
This review is from: The Perfect Horoscope: Following the Astrological Guidelines Established by Edgar Cayce (Paperback)
I've read The Perfect Horoscope, and I would like to say to its author (John Willner): Thank you! This book has given me a much more thorough, logical, consistent understanding of astrology, by having definite principles upon which it is based. The book is brilliantly, originally, logically, consistently---scientically written! (!!)

For the past two-and-a-half to three years, I have been aggravated by the many different astrology books that I've read that are so contradictory to one another---filled with bromides, and so superficially written. Nothing of depth or substance is being said in many of those books, and the frustration of trying to make sense of all the contradictory methods being used within the same field has literally caused me mental anguish, to say the least!

That's where John Willner stands apart! He has depth (and logic---and proof!) in everything he says. He identifies, defines, and shows the one and only correct way astrology should be practice: by using astrological fundamentals. Based solely on the Edgar Cayce readings, John Willner tells anyone how to arrive at a "perfect horoscope".

This book should definitely be read by any astrologer who is serious about arriving at "exact" and "repeatable" horoscopes for each and every individual---thereby allowing astrology to be recognized as an exact science, which it is, when practiced properly!

3.0 out of 5 stars Great intentions, but a mixed bag, December 30, 2005
By 
Edward Falis (Ipswich, Ma United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Perfect Horoscope: Following the Astrological Guidelines Established by Edgar Cayce (Paperback)
The goals of this book are laudable, particularly the emphasis on rigor in applying astrological fundamentals to the problem of determining the time of a "functional" horoscope. I also agree with the author's conclusions that there are many situations where only one valid technique can logically exist, and that astrologers are fooling themselves entertaining variants. For the sake of advancing astrological knowledge, I'm not much of a fan of "it works for me".

But there we part ways. Although I agree with many of his conclusions, his proofs are not as strong as he contends, mainly because of contextual oversights and some outright errors in his technical foundations. The use of geocentric latitude is widely considered incorrect for the construction of an accurate horoscope; his True Local Time correction shows a misunderstanding of horoscope calculation (as what he is correcting for is already taken care of when determining local sidereal time from UT); his description of the Regiomontanus house system is incorrect (the equator is evenly divided, not the horizon). His emphasis on the preponderance of progressed aspects in declination overlooks the fact that using the same orb as for aspects in longitude gives as much as 7x greater likelihood of the former aspects occurring than longitudinal conjunctions or oppositions. There is also a question as to the method used to progress the angles: as described in the book, the correct quotidian method appears to be used (angles move 360 degrees per year, based on determing elapsed time, applying the Naibod multiplier to determine the progressed time, and erecting a horoscope for it). Yet one of his disciple's web pages shows the conventional Naibod in right ascension method where the Naibod multiplier is applied to elapsed years to determine the RAMC. That leaves aside the question as to which of the mean (Naibod) or true tropical solar motions should be correlated to the sidereal day. Given the emphasis on the use of progressions to validate horoscopes, these issues related to the calculation and use of progressions are serious.

Finally, none of the examples in the appendix come with events against which one could duplicate his claims of proof.

That said, the book is still a fascinating read with many good ideas, especially that of a spiritual (or astrologically effective) birth time as distinct from the physical time (which is exactly as vague as he claims).

Definitely not a book for beginners; intermediate to advanced students can gain a lot from it, bearing in mind the need to question some of the technical aspects of the presentation.
