Astronomers may have demoted Pluto, but astrologers know better. Pluto is powerful and essential to their work. But few appreciate that there are MORE PLUTOS in the Kuiper Belt, more important bodies astrologers and others interested in the craft should be using in chart work. Author Sue Kientz addresses her primer on the new Dwarf Planets to astrological professionals or anyone studying astrology in depth. General readers may nevertheless enjoy learning which celebrities have connections to these massive bodies, since those examples as well as famous disasters (9-11, Challenger explosion, JFK assassination) and achievements (light-bulb invention, Moon landing) are presented in engaging detail.

Kientz analyzes Eris, Makemake, Haumea, Sedna, Quaoar, Orcus, Varuna, Ixion, and others, while revealing why Secondary Progression works and how astrology delivered convincing results even before modern planets were discovered. Planetary patterns are demonstrated to have fractal structure, suggesting astrology has a promising underlying scientific basis.

About the Author:

Sue Kientz (B.A., Theater, Adelphi University; M.A., English, University of New Orleans) first became interested in astrology in 1977 when she decided to conduct a long-term study of zodiac signs to investigate literary symbolism. Originally skeptical that astrology could have any value, after learning how to calculate charts, she was intrigued by the results. Kientz always included the large asteroids in her chart work, but after working with new Kuiper-Belt discoveries Eris, Makemake, Haumea, Sedna, and others, she realized they provided the finishing touches astrology needs to deliver its unique view of people and events in a simple, straightforward manner.

Review:

"This book has countless ideas and observations that you won't find anywhere else... [a] very creative astrologer's book. It is describing another order of astrology.... More Plutos offers a very comprehensive guide to the Kuiper Belt objects." -- Mary Plumb, The Mountain Astrologer

"In addition to writing on the dwarf planets ... the author expands beyond astrology to include relevant ideas from chaos theory and other branches of science to help support her ideas. An extended discussion of the fractal quality of astrology is interesting and hints towards the mechanisms that underlie it.... The heart of the book, however, is Kientz's exploration of the meaning of the new dwarf planets. In this she has done a truly comprehensive job." -- Armand Diaz, Astrology News Service

"More Plutos is so encyclopedic that it may be taken on trust that Kientz has executed a Herculean task in backing her ideas with examples-non-astrologers can enjoy the many stories told, even if the astrology loses them.... Kientz tackles even the most difficult of ideas with a chatty swagger; an indication of supreme confidence in her work and depth of knowledge. More Plutos is a major work of astrology which in the years to come will grow in importance as we learn more of the Kuiper Objects." -- Victor Olliver, Astrological Journal
