Paperback. Condition: Good. It was a long time ago and few alive now remember what life was like in England in the years after World War II. Yes, the Luftwaffe and Vengeance weapons had made a fine mess in the south of the country, but during the war years the Yanks were there, millions of them, seducing the womenfolk, brawling in pubs, and, most importantly, spending their pay with local shopkeepers. May, 1945, the war ended and all the Americans left. Most went home, but a sizeable contingent set up shop in Germany, where, to the best of their ability given the local ruins, they carried on as before, seducing the womenfolk, brawling in pubs and spending their pay with the surviving shopkeepers. The Americans were joined by contingents of English, French and Soviet troops. As a result, the surprising fact, long forgotten, is that after the war, conditions in England were even worse than they were in post-Third Reich Germany. Some in Britain rued winning the war, as deprivation became their fate. In London after the war books were so scarce that used vendors had long lists of people waiting for the few books that turned up. For schools in London which taught astrology, the situation was impossible. Responding to the post WWII book shortage, Margaret Hone published this ultimate Astrology Text-Book. She was born in Birmingham, England, on October 2, 1892, at 2:13 am. Her ascendant was 27 Leo; her Sun was 9 Libra; her Moon was 13 Aquarius. Her midheaven was 15 Taurus. Of Ms Hone, James Holden wrote, English astrologer, educator, and author. She was a professional astrologer and private teacher for many years and later was Principal and Director of Studies of the Faculty of Astrological Studies 1954-1969 and Vice President of the Astrological Lodge of London. Mrs. Hone was an advocate of the Equal House system of house division. She is best known in the U.S. for her two instruction manuals. This book is dedicated to Charles E.O. Carter, 1887-1968. Carter succeeded Alan Leo as head of the Astrological Lodge (1920-1952) and was First Principal of the Faculty of Astrological Studies, which he helped found in 1948. Hone succeeded Carter at FAS. She passed away on October 14, 1969. In his Preface, while quick to praise Hone, a personal friend, Charles Carter also pointed out that this book's high price was justified, that padding has been rigorously excluded. He goes on to praise the workmanship, the carefully worded definitions, as well as the fact that the book was complete and entire in itself. Save for ephemeris and tables of houses, this one book would suffice beginning as well as advanced students for some years. In addition, Hone also includes one of the earliest modern histories of astrology, short biographies of leading astrologers past and present, astrology and public opinion (daily horoscopes in the newspapers were a recent innovation). On a more practical side, Hone gives a thorough analysis of the principal house systems of the day (Equal, Campanus, Regiomontanus, Placidus), and even mentions C.G. Jung's recently developed Depth Psychology. …

Condition: As New. Contents: Foreword. Introduction. 1. Backwards and Forwards astrology. 2. Interpretation discussed for the interested inquirer. 3. Interpretation discussed for the student of astrology. 4. Method in interpretation. 5. Synopsis of the keyword system of interpretation. 6. Astro-analysis for a client unacquainted with astrological terminology. 7. Astrological help to a parent. 8. Short report on consultation. 9. Astro-analysis for a client understanding astrological terminology. 10. Love or duty ? 11. Blind Astrology. 12. Forwards astrology confirmed by Backwards astrology. 13. Interpretation of Nonagesimal and Midheaven. 14. Interpretation of unaspected planets. 15. Interpretation of inceptional maps.After many years of teaching astrology, first to private pupils and then to classes, it has become increasingly obvious that the student is hampered in his early days by not being able to see examples of work set out and arranged by a working astrologer. It is hoped that this book will help to fill the need especially for those abroad, unable to attend lectures. Other astrologers may not agree with the interpretations as given but even this case, clarification of ideas may result through the presentation of these examples for discussion.Grateful acknowledgment is now made, firstly to those who have so freely given permission for their personal letters and chart-interpretations to be published; secondly to those who have helped to correct the book; Miss Jacinthe Buddicom, who has acted as checker of significators and Mr. J.M. Filbey, who calculated the charts.As it is difficult to write a detailed book without mistakes, these are apologised for in advance. 118 pp. …

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Mild cover wear, smooth spine. Mild page toning. Superior. First published in mid‑century Britain and refined through many revisions, The Modern Text‑Book of Astrology became the standard classroom text for generations of astrologers. Margaret E. Hone—teacher, consultant, and later Principal of the Faculty of Astrological Studies—built the book to guide students from first principles to confident chart interpretation. Inside, readers will find straightforward astronomical explanations, modern "Direct Method" calculation, examples of natal and progressed charts, and a complete client interpretation demonstrating Hone's method. She also provides a structured system for synthesizing chart factors, an overview of major house systems, and one of the earliest concise histories of astrology written for students. The revised edition remains valued for its clarity, practicality, and careful definitions. A dependable, comprehensive introduction for anyone serious about learning astrology. …
