Customer Reviews

Excellent book!

Although, this book was written in 1958, it explains at the simple way how understand our relationship through the astrology. I think every student of astrology as to read this book. It is a classic and basic book of synastry. Therefore, I recommend it.

A must on your bookshelf

This is a very good reference book for synasrty. There is a complete section in the book that describes all the possible chart to chart planetary aspects and their meanings, that are very useful when analizing the interaction between two pople in relationship. The only thing that is missing here are the aspects from the planets to the angles ( ascendant, midheaven etc)., that is a bit of a shame, as it would really make this little booklet the most thorough synastry reference book yet. As it is , it is still extremely useful and when i was beginning astrology I used it constantly. I think i have now dowloaded it directly into my brain, as i do not seem to use it as much, but i am still referring to it in my mind. One could say i used it so much, i know it by heart. A very useful little booklet indeed.

Useful synastry astrology reference book

This book is worth buying for chapter 8, "Comparison Of Aspects" alone. All the possible planetary combinations are worked through one by one, giving clear guidelines as to the corresponding kind of interactions between the two individuals concerned. I have often found it very handy to pull out an occasional quote from this chapter when presenting a chart comparison. I have not seen such concise, top quality, synastry information anywhere else. Otherwise, great astrology but not so sure about all the relationship advice! Written in 1958, some of the attitudes towards relationships and partnerships inevitably seem a bit out of date and rather limited e.g. many comments about the leadership of the man and the domesticity of the woman in marriage. There is still much good common sense here, even though much of it seems rather obvious at the beginning of the 21st century.Another criticism is the notable absence of ascendants and midheavens in the comparison of aspects, especially as the author states quite early on, "most important in judging attraction is the aspect between the ascendant of one chart and the planets of the other".

Best book I have ever bought for Astrology

I bought this book in the 1970's in Sacramento, California. This is by far the best book I have ever bought for Astrology. It emphasizes self-understanding & speaks in real English for any type of Astrologer. It shows you how one person ineracts with another person. Age has nothing to do with relationships. Astrology chart comparisons do. Parent-Child, Family Relationship, Friendships, Bussiness, & Love and Marriage.
