4.0 out of 5 stars
A very useful addition to the astrologer's toolkit.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Do it Yourself Relationship Astrology (Paperback)
I've been looking for a book like this for a while--a reference work for comparing one astrological chart to another. (This is a practice known as "synastry," usually done to discover if two potential lovers are astrologically compatible.) This is a long step beyond those books that tell you if you're a Taurus whether you should go out with a Leo or not. Why is this different? First of all, it takes the whole chart into account--not just the Sun, but the Moon and all the planets. Second, it tells you to start by looking carefully at each individual's chart--which is essential if you want to learn anything meaningful about how the two charts work together. There's a good deal of useful advice here about relationships--and unlike many books on astrology, this one deals with what your chart says about those times you are *not* in a relationship. Sometimes the advice is a bit too traditionalist for my taste--it seems a bit passe to be to be talking about "natural or biological roles," which means "the male initiating and the female gladly responding"! It's not exactly clear who this book is aimed at--someone who's a complete beginner at astrology may well be overwhelmed by complexity. Yet non-beginners will certainly not need the pared-down ephemeris that takes up about one-fifth of the book. The section on planet-to-planet interactions is said to be "the heart of the book"--yet you can't calculate these interactions with the information provided in the book. (The author offers to send you them for an additional $10.) This book is probably most helpful for intermediate astrologers--those who know their way around a birth chart, but haven't had much experience with synastry.
