good book

I didn't think I was going to enjoy this at first. Just glimpsing through it, looking at the interpretations, I thought it was just another book that takes the tired formula of keyword 1 + keyword 2 to get its interpretations. In a way it is, and the result is sometimes clumsy such as the Neptune in 9th house interpretations "act out vicimization through selling or advertising" and "show trust through knowledge". Huh? Were these thrown together or is it just me? Well, that is why the book gets four stars instead of five. The actual text and information is great. I've consumed countless astrology books and the author still provided me with something new, even an Ah-hah moment. In all, I loved this book and know I will come back to it. I will just have to skip the formulas.

Choices not Fate are the Ultimate Drivers of Destiny

There are circumstances and a reality that we must face and accept, and then choose what to do with the cards we are dealt. This is a book about influences and what they are and what strategies we can use to navigate. While the debate as to whether astrology is fact or fiction is not in question ... but how to perhaps view the ancient practice, this is a book that is very helpful for those who need to knock some common sense into fatalistic friends predicting dire planetary meddling into their lives.

Astrologers in training:

A Must-Read for anyone who is interested in learing about astrology.

An excellent primer

Gail Fairfield has written an excellent primer which covers the basics of chart interpretation in a thorough, easy-to-follow, and humanistic way. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn how to read a chart without giving in to fatalistic thinking.
