Person-Centered Astrology: A New Approach to the Meaning and Use of Birth-charts

This book provides lucid and inspiring material on the purpose and value of Astrology in New Age Guidance, and the difference between an event-oriented approach, and a person-centred view. The topics covered include: event oriented vs. person centred; planetary patterns; aspect patterns; birth charts as a whole; astrology in new age guidance; astrology as karma yoga; planetary & lunar nodes; and, the moment of interpretation. Sample horoscopes of well-known people, Assagioli, Freud, Nietzche and others illustrate clearly the techniques described. Two complete detailed case histories are given, enabling the reader to concretely experience Rudhyar's holistic approach in action. This book represents the harvest of Rudhyar's innovative astrological and philosophical thinking, practically applied to individual birth charts.
