An excellent book full of original, well-presented ideas.

Contents summary: Introduction (4pp). The Moon: reparenting the inner child (16pp). Moon signs delineated (33pp). Moon phases and eclipses (18pp). Moon's Nodes (45pp, including interpretations of the six possible sign pairs on their axis). Transits of the outer planets - discussion without very specific interpretations (49pp). Neptune - discussion, with images for its house placement by transit or natally (35pp). Pluto - discussion (28pp). Depth astrology (36pp). Misuses of astrology (12pp). Tables of eclipses (1980-1995) and lunations (1960-1998) (4pp). This is an intelligent, wise and therapeutically-oriented book. It is one to read and absorb from beginning to end, and to refer back to repeatedly. It may not be the most focused book in its organisation, and treats some fairly diverse topics, but there are plenty of little gems of wisdom to be found, and the writing is serene and free from filler. Very worthwhile for its Moon sign and Moon's nodes material alone, but goes far beyond this with its other essays to enhance general astrological consciousness.

a must read

I came across this page when searching for some other astrology books and felt I should write a review. It's been nearly fifteen years since I bought this book and it remains on my bookshelf, well-read and dog-eared from use over the years. It is wonderfully insightful, with practical and wise advice about handling planetary energies. I thoroughly recommend it, as well as Tracy's other books (particularly 'How to handle your T-square' - if you can get a hold of it).

Astrology as a Path into Internal Depth/Self-Discovery

This book is a must-read and a must-have, both for practicing Astrologers and for any student of Astrology. Any reread will always catalyze fresh insights for the reader as Tracy Marks has succeeded in creating a dynamic and definitive work covering such topics as principles of depth astrology, the nodes of the moon, astrology and life purpose, dealing creatively with transits, the healing power of things lunar and unlocking one's potentials. In my opinion, The Astrology of Self-Discovery also contains one of the definitive pieces of writing on the planet Neptune, the subtitle of the chapter being aptly named "How to swim through cosmic waters" Ms. Marks explores Neptunian states of consciousness by helping the reader to work with the elusiveness of Neptunian experiences and possible resulting "fog" in very concrete and extremely useful ways. The Neptune worksheets are particularly helpful. In addition, her work on the nodes of the moon and their respective issues and lessons is outstanding; in fact, let me state again that I find this book to be one of the classics of Astrology. I urge you to have this book in your library!

Sign posting the way into the presently unknown

Of my many books it is this one that I rely on most for communicating Astrological Principles to clients. When you can give an example which touches some deep place within Astrology becomes that much more effective. The quotations and prose collected to illustrate these concepts gives you a head start to understanding non rational principles and the role they play in your life. Always stressing the fact of your own self determination Tracy Marks helps set out some pointers to help you on your own inner journey.This book gives much food for thought.The most important part of the book is the section of what Astrology can and connot do for you. Anyone visiting an Astrologer could do no better than using this book as a set of quality standards. If only our profession could be judged by the matterial here and not by the popular press. No practicing Astrologer should be without it
