How often does an ancient science like astrology open a new door? And how fortunate for us that Philip Sedgwick is here to provide such a readable introduction and guide into these new realms.

Heliocentric astrology redraws an astrological chart with the sun, instead of the earth, at the center. Sedgwick explains the significance of this shift, and provides a fun and informative map of the new territory. His views of the new meaning of standard astrological elements come from his years of experience and profound insights from his extensive study and reflection.

I heard Sedgwick speak on this topic at a recent astrological conference, and came away wanting to learn more. His book is full of the same wit and intelligence I experienced from his talk. Some understanding of traditional Western astrology will help you understand his concepts, but this book is written for everyone with a beginning understanding of astrology, not just the practicing professionals.
