Astrology
Revealed: A Simple Guide to Unlocking the Secrets of Astrology
by Paul Fenton-Smith
This would have to be the best all-round introduction
to astrology I have read! I wish I had access to it when
I was studying - it is concise, relatively inexpensive and
covers a lot more than I thought it would when I read the
title.
The author, Paul Fenton-Smith founded the
Academy of Psychic Sciences in 1985, and has studied and
practiced around Australia, in Europe and the USA since
1978. He is also a regular guest on radio and television.
Paul also teaches palmistry and tarot reading
and has a private practice as a clairvoyant and counsellor.
A best-selling author of books on palmistry, tarot and astrology,
Paul's aim in teaching and writing is to demystify the psychic
sciences.
Astrology Revealed is not a large book,
but as I mentioned previously, it is concise and practical.
As well as covering the usual topics found in introductions
to astrology - history, signs, houses and planets; it also
goes into explaining many other important aspects of astrology.
The book is divided into four parts. Part
One (Introduction) explains what astrology is and also goes
into the history and purpose of astrology.
Part Two (The Basics) looks at the signs of
the zodiac, the houses, the solar chart, plus the Moon and
its phases. I particularly liked the way the signs of the
zodiac were explained. Each sign was given its planetary
symbol, glyph, element, type and ruler. The author then
goes on to describe the themes associated with each sign
and then under separate headings looks at relationships,
health, negative traits, and 'lessons' for the relevant
sign.
In Part Three (The Planets), Mercury, Venus,
Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are explained
in terms of their symbolism and interpretation in each of
the twelve zodiac signs.
The final section, Part Four (A Deeper Awareness),
return charts, the Moon's Nodes, Ascendant, progressions,
planetary aspects, chart reading procedure, relationships
and astrology, health and sun signs, practice charts and
advice on gaining practical experience are all explained.
Astrology Revealed has over 200 illustrations
plus many real-life examples that are used to help you understand
and apply the concepts presented.
Anybody who has looked into this complex subject
will appreciate the amount of effort that would have gone
into producing such an excellent book. I believe Astrology
Revealed is an important addition to the student's library
of reference books.
