Mapping the Psyche: An Introduction to Psychological Astrology (volume II)

This book, a transcript of the second term of Clare Martin's introductory course in astrology given for the Centre for Psychological Astrology, continues her clear, insightful and innovative presentation of the basics fo astrological study. Exploring the planetary aspects and the houses of the horoscope, the ten lessons focus on the horoscope as a dynamic interweaving of polarities: not only the angles, the houses, and their related zodiacal signs are examined from the perspective of complementarity, but also the enigmatic Moon's Nodes, which are interpreted from a fresh and exciting perspective. Major and minor aspects are illuminated by examples and discussion from the group, and the importance of a missing element or aspect is discussed with originality and depth. Volume 2 of Mapping the Psyche is a superb successor to Clare's first volume on the planets and the zodiacal signs, and will provide solid groundwork for students taking their first steps in astrology, as well as deepening the understanding of experienced practitiones who can benefit from Clare's beautifully structured, elegant and comprehensive approach.
