In a light, conversational style, the author has traced the spiritual evolution of western civilization through the precessional ages of history and a detailed study of the biblical Genesis.
Her narrative along with lively dialogue with her students are interspersed with stories from Genesis, Exodus and the gospels that are retold from class discussions that emphasize the zodiacal and numerological symbolism that can be found in the stories.
The use of astrology is seen here as a synthesis of such apparent opposites as faith (religion) and reason (science. The astrology of the Great Ages is shown to reflect the matriarchal roots of humanity through the dominance of the patriarchy to the current and future reemergence of the Goddess.
The vision of Esdras, from the Apocrypha, of an eagle with twelve wings brings this story of the ages to a close, but with hope and inspiration for a future for humanity that extends and will quite likely to continue to extend far beyond the fabled Age of Aquarius ...the song for which we’ve not often heard in recent years. Were not yet in when the first edition of this book was published in 1988, 30 years ago, and now in 2018, we are still in tn the Age of Pisces.
 Little in changed in the text in regard to the history of past ages past, though there is commentary and at least a estimate on when the new age might actually arrive...and when we might once again be hearing a new revival of that popular song of years past that began with the lyrics, “It is the coming of the Age of Aquarius...Aquarius! Aquarius!”

This is the book that only a Uranian astrologer who is also a graphic artist could do! It has well over 100 illustrations that show step by step how to use a 90° dial to study charts in detail and prove the old adage that " a picture is worth a thousand words." Within this book you'll be taught step-by-step how to set up charts on the dial and study them for aspect relationsips and the midpoints that are such a signficant key to obtaining detailed information about the person whose chart you are studying. One page has a full size 90° dial that you are free to cut out and use, and you are free to make copies of it so that you can have more than one dial to work with. An interesting variety of case studies are used to demonstarte the dial techniques and help you learn how to use them not just with words but with pictures, showing you exactly how to rotate the dial to see midpoints and planetary pictures. Since the original publication of this book in 1989, Dial Detective has become the most frequently recommended book for learning these very useful techniques. The book includes an appendix of planetary pictures listed alphbetically by delineation, an appendix of "grim" planetary pictures with alternative delineations, an appendix of Uranian tips and terminology that also features 360° dial techniques and the Uranian astrology houses.
