Preface

This book is an introduction to the basic symbols and language of Astrology, the very basic concepts that are the necessary foundation for understanding Astrology. Indian astrometaphysics is, as we have remarked elsewhere, superior to western notions of karma based merely on nodes. There is, for example, the accumulated karmas for this particular life, there is the remaining area of free will

We all have a free will and we can create our own life. Astrology aims to increase our self-knowledge and enable us to work on our lives and increase our well-being. We must know what is wrong and where the foundations lie in order to improve things. Good as well as bad possibilities are mentioned in the description of the signs, houses and the aspects between the planets. It is up to each and every one of us to take advantage of the information Astrology gives us.

Enter a new dimension of spiritual self-discovery when you probe the mythic archetypes represented in your astrological birth chart. Myth has always been closely linked with astrology. Experiences these myths and gain a deeper perspective on your eternal self.

Learn how the characteristics of the gods developed into the meanings associated with particular planet and signs. Look deeply into your own personal myths, and enjoy a living connection to the world of the deities within you. When you finally stand in the presence of an important archetype, the Creator will have something to tell you.

This is an excellent book that ties in synchronically, astrology, the planets, the Gods and Goddesses for whom the planets are named and many of the myths relating to them and individual signs. In short, it is one of the few concise, deep accounts of archetypal astrology ever written.
