The sections on Venus and Mars through the signs are worth the price of the book all on their own. I found it to be a very detailed and well researched read. The author takes the time to walk the reader step-by-step through the interpretations and therefore this gives the aspects more relevance. I liked the fact that he did not shy away from the more "base" aspects. He delved into past lives, sado-masochism and sexual aspects with a fine-toothed comb. Another thing I liked was his use of the asteroids. So many "astrologers" write books with no mention of them. Astrology is certainly not a "science" of absolutes. But I take my hat off to the author who researches and incorporates the use of more than just the "usual aspects". Other authors in this field would should take pointers. For those readers who have grown tired of the usual astrology "cookbooks", sun sign generalizations and boring (read sedate) chart profiles, this book and others by this author may well be for you.

Jeffrey Wolf Green presents a brilliant survey of Pluto and its function in personal and interpersonal relationships based on his evolutionary theory. This book is basically a philosophical look at the soul's evolution through consecutive lifetimes and Pluto's function in that process. Wolf ponders and suggests factors that cause people to choose their current destiny and "karmic" dilemmas in relationships. The most engaging aspect of this text is that it calls upon the individual to develop awareness of how one attracts and constructs the dilemmas that they are involved in. For that reason, this book suggests a path towards self-empowerment. Wolf's outline of the meaning of Venus and Mars through the twelve astrological signs is the finest on record to date. His approach to understanding these planets is to explore at a very honest and basic level the kinds of sexual expression these planetary energies require for the soul's fulfillment. In his candid approach, he freely discusses issues such as sadomasochism, masturbation, sodomy, etc. and explains them as conditions that manifest when the energies of the planets are expressed in certain evolutionary patterns. By far this is one of the finest astrological texts you could own. It is futuristic, intelligent and even if you do not agree with his philosophy, you have to give him credit for his lucid and well-codified presentation of it. This is an insightful and groundbreaking astrological text that I highly recommend.

Most will agree they do not fully comprehend just what brought two individuals together in this life time. That relationships posess a life of their own, not fully in the control or conscious reach of the individuals involved with each other, is apparent to every one.

Jeff, has given astrology a huge gift through his insights into the nature and function of Venus, Mars, Pluto and the Nodal axis of the Moon, in the individual's chart, in synastry, and in composite charts. From this perspective he describes the fundamental needs people have and how they look to others for their personal growth--whether or not they are aware of it.

Einstien mused that the law of gravity camnnot account for the attraction between two people- Jeff has eloquently described yet another force-- the magnetic attraction of two souls in their personal and shared evolution-- to account for the unaccountable.

This is an essential work for any astrologer who wishes to understand the dynamics of human relationships from an evolutionary point of view.

Having read many books on astrology, this book raised my awareness level ten fold. Extraordinary writings, yet written in simple language, revealing an uncommon depth of perception and understanding of the planets and their relationships to one another. I learned more from this book than with my therapist. Truly remarkable.

I currently have Pluto conjuncting my Sun and wanted to understand the affects of Pluto on my life... I got more out of this book about my relationships, their purpose and the overall affect of the relationship...the lessons learned. It was accurate insights and reflections of the situation. I now figure out the composite Pluto for friends and family and understand the purpose of the agreement with each person.
It has changed and added to my perspective and my spiritual journey in many ways. I highly recommend if you want to know why someone is in your life... read this book. It gives me peace of mind and direction.

This excellent book has now been reprinted in its original form under ISBN 9781902405421 Pluto II: The Evolution of the Soul through Relationships]. Available now!

This book was sometimes straightforward, clear and easy to apply for my beginner astrology skills.
And then suddenly it wouldn't be.

The parts I liked were concrete examples of tendencies of "if then, then that", so that I could use the information to my life.

Overall the book is engaging and sympathetic, just uneven in being sometimes broad, sometimes theoretical, sometimes practical.
