Jan Spiller has done a great job on making
astrological knowledge accessible to the everyday person
in her new book 'New Moon Astrology - Using New Moon
Power Days to Change and Revitalize Your Life'.
She has a long history of involvement in
the astrological field, including contributions as a monthly
columnist for Dell Horoscope, the astrology magazine
with the largest circulation in the world! Ms Spiller teaches
astrology and appears regularly as a radio and television
guest. Her previous books Spiritual Astrology (with
Karen McCoy) and Astrology for the Soul have been
translated into 10 languages to date.
As the title suggests, the information found
in this inspirational and down-to-earth book shows the everyday
person how to make the most of each of the 12 New Moon placements.
Each of the twelve zodiac placements are subdivided
into relevant sections. For example Taurus is subdivided
in the following way. Taurus rules:
accumulation;
the physical senses;
enjoyment of life on earth;
building;
reliability;
self-worth;
inflexibility; and also
coughs, throat, chin, neck, thyroid gland voice and
vocal chords (in matters of restoring health).
Each of these subdivisions then goes into more detail and
gives examples of how to word your wishes.
There is also a chapter devoted to using the New Moon to
let go of unwanted unconscious habits. As well as this there
is another technique based on your personal 11th House that
I found interesting and potentially beneficial to anyone
who wanted to try it.
Everything you need, apart from your personalised birth
chart, is found within New Moon Astrology. If you don't
have your own chart the book even includes an Internet address
where you will be able to draw it up for free! This is the
only item you will need to utilise the methods she suggests
to make the most of the New Moon symbolism on a personal
note.
To get the most out of New Moon Astrology you will
need a basic understanding of astrological principles. For
example, being familiar with concepts such as houses and
cusps would be good, as well as being able to convert time
zones comfortably would be handy too.
Personally I find the theories found within this book make
astrological sense and I intend on trying some of Spiller's
suggestions to see what happens!
