5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent insight and depth., August 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Wisdom and Way of Astrology (Paperback)

This book is well worth seeking out. After reading hundreds of books on astrology, Kriyananda's book is full of depth and insight that makes other books fall shadow in comparison. His incorporation of biblical references are insightful and quite interesting. His use of House ruler dispositions is also very welcome. I also appreciated his slant on aspect infleunces (in reference to signs) which is more detailed and logical than I have seen elsewhere. A generous addition to any astrological library.

Goswami Kriyananda has shared the esoteric wisdom from the kriya lineage in this book of Astrology that is easy to follow, even for the complete beginner. As the chakras are associated to planetary forces,it is another way for the yogi to understand not only the blueprint he/she came into this lifetime with, but the areas that need to be modified or softened in our personality. There are many, many books on astrology but sadly not so many astrologers with Kriyananda's insight. Camella Nair - author of "Aqua Kriya Yoga".
