Book Description
Every astrologer needs a good understanding of the astrological houses, and Houses of the Horoscope: An Introduction provides a practical and valuable sourcebook. Alan Oken masterfully guides you through the concepts of the meanings and the nature of the twelve astrological houses. He provides a core description of the twelve areas of life delineated by the astrological house system. The energy of each of the planets in the houses tells us where on Earth that planet's energy lands and what area of our life it highlights. He gives a masterful analysis of how the astrological signs on the house cusps and the planets ruling the signs on houses express the nature of each house. The planets, signs, and houses in a chart represent the "whats", "hows", and "wheres", of your life. The planets tell us "what" kind of energy is at work. The signs indicate "how" this energy is working. But it is the houses that reveals "where" the events, people, and places in your life may be found. Alan Oken provides an expert guide to the understanding of the astrological houses and their interaction with these other elements of the horoscope.

Book Description
Astrology is the Divine science that makes sense of the order of the Universe. In this book you will come to understand how mathematically numbers are the bases of astrology. The houses in astrology are the core essence that will give numbers meaning. Once the meanings of houses are understood in terms of the numerical order the perfection of the Universe is revealed. The houses reflect the purpose and meaning of life and how everything is interconnected and related. In this book the meanings of numbers and how they relate to each other come alive through the meanings of the houses. It will reveal our spiritual journey through life from birth to old age. The houses are divided into the categories of the 4 Aims of life, which are the 4 elements. This gives an understanding of the energetic flow of how life unfolds and the purpose and meaning of our lives. This is revealed from the understanding of Fire-Dharma, Earth-Artha, Air-Kama, and Water-Moksha. As the planets are placed into the houses the areas of one's life and destiny become clear as to the karmas of the soul. The houses the planets rule and the houses they are placed indicates the intricacies of an individual's life. The houses are assessed through the experiences of seasoned astrologer Joni Patry from many years of working with planets, signs, and houses in her personal life and with clients. In each chapter all 12 houses, are explored with deep and profound understanding leaving no stone unturned. The book is organized in this way: The houses are grouped according to the 4 elements or 4 Aims of life. Each house is analyzed as it is in relation to all the other houses giving deep perception into the meaning of numbers. For example, the 2nd house rules our personal finances. Therefore, the 2nd house to any house indicates financial gains from the house in question. The 8th house is the 2nd house from the 7th house indicating the partner's (7th house) money (2nd from the 7th house). Each house is understood by its relationship to other houses, and Bhavat Bhavam. For example, the 5th house represents children. Counting 5 houses from the 5th house is the 9th house. So the 9th house is our children's children or grand children. Each planet is analyzed and interpreted in all the houses. And the planet's rulership of each house is analyzed as it is placed in all 12 houses. Each house has 2 birth charts of famous individual's to explain the core essence of what the house means. Finally, all the planets are analyzed as they transit through all the houses. Future predictions are revealed through the understanding of all the transiting planets through all 12 houses. This is the most in-depth analysis of the understanding and meaning of the astrological houses, using numbers, signs and planets in astrology. Amazing and powerful, this will change the way you view astrology through and understanding of the Divine Order of the Universe!

Book Description
Astrology is both Science and Art. Hence only the talented can appreciate and understand it. Rightly Visnugupta declares that nobody other than a sage can master the ocean-like science of astrology. The great Varahamihira declares, No sin will creep into a place that is sanctified by the presence of a true astrologer. No person who studies and divines the course of destiny will ever be found in hell, but will reside permanently in the world of Brahman. This book brings to the fore not only the rationality of astrology but also the nature and structure of the correct knowledge that our forefathers possessed regarding the predictable influences of planets on human beings, and gives a spiritual bias to astrology. The reader is taken step by step in this work from the rudiments Viz., the distribution of constellations in the Zodiacal belt which is divided into twelve Signs, and the planetary hierarchy, through the method of calculating the ascendant and other houses of a natal chart, assessment of the strengths, influences, aspects, affliction, mutual relations etc., of the planets, to the final stage of reading the brighter and darker sides of the subject`s life, his chances of success and failure, their periods, ingress of the soul into the mortal coil and exit thereform as well as its departure to other worlds according to its karma. In this book an attempt has been made to give a good account of the science of astrology, with a view to making the reader a good and true astrologer. It also shows that astrology does not make man a fatalist, a helpless automation in the hands of a merciless Fate. It should, on the other hand, help him to take to self-exertion and self-help. This hoary lore, according to the author, is to be practised not for selfish ends, but to guide the needy and the distressed, to remove the cause of their suffering and to turn their attention towards God.

Book Description
Tapping into the political power of magic and astrology for social, community, and personal transformation. In a cross-cultural approach to understanding astrology as a magical language, Alice Sparkly Kat unmasks the political power of astrology, showing how it can be channeled as a force for collective healing and liberation. Too often, magic and astrology are divorced from their potency and cultural contexts: co-opted by neoliberalism, used as a force of oppression, or distilled beyond recognition into applications that belie their individual and collective power. By looking at the symbolic and etymological histories of the sun, moon, Saturn, Venus, Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter, we can trace and understand the politics of magic--and challenge our own practices, interrogate our truths, and reshape our institutions to build better frameworks for communities of care. Fearless, radical, and fresh, Sparkly Kat's Postcolonial Astrology ushers in a new wave of astrology revival, refusing to apologize for its magickism and connecting its power to the spirituality and politics we need now. Intersectional, inclusive, and geared towards queer and POC communities, it uses our historical and collective constructs of the planets, sun, and moon to re-chart our subconscious history, redefine the body in the world, and assert our politics of the personal, in astrology and all things.
