Saturn
Author: Liz Greene
Publisher: Weiser Books
ISBN: 1633412091
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
This classic astrology text, revered by beginners and professional astrologers alike, is now available in a Weiser Classics edition. “The most important single contribution of twentieth-century astrology is that astrology is not a map of one’s fixed destiny but is a potential map of the unfolding of the authentic, higher self.” —Robert Hand, from the foreword Saturn’s darker persona is recognized universally in myth and fairytale. In this classic astrology text, renowned astrologer and Jungian analyst Liz Greene offers a fresh perspective on how to handle the influence of this much-maligned astrological symbol. In Saturn, Greene shows us how the frustrating experiences connected to this planet can be turned into opportunities for greater insight and meaning in our lives. Saturn, she says, symbolizes a psychic process—one that allows us to utilize the experience of pain for self-discovery and a more fulfilling and complete life. Greene retraces Saturn’s character through sign, house, aspect, and synastry in a brilliant analysis that reveals his other face: that of the initiator who, for the price of our honesty with ourselves, offers us greater consciousness, self-understanding, and, eventually, freedom.

Child of Saturn

Pages : 322
Book Description
Teresa Edgerton's acclaimed debut novel available again after thirty years, and now in ebook for the first time.The wizard Glastyn, defender of the realm, tamer of the Wild Magic, had disappeared, leaving behind a disillusioned king and an order of complacent and indolent knights. The Princess Diaspad, royal step-sister, worker of wicked magics, thought this would be a good time to move into the castle and make a play for power.Who could stop her?Teleri was Glastyn's apprentice, and had only completed part of her training when Glastyn had left. At the age of twelve she had made up her mind against growing any older and used what magic she had to make it so. Half-trained wizards who happened to be female always ran the risk of accusations of witchcraft, which was illegal and punishable by death. So she cultivated a type of invisibility, the kind that largely depended on being small and harmless-looking-most of all on not drawing attention to herself.Ceilyn was the most valiant young knight in the castle, widely known as a moral example to all-and deeply resented on both counts. But Ceilyn had a secret, one that could prove deadly. It also, surprisingly, drew him to Teleri, as the only person he dared trust with the truth. And once they became friends, it seemed it was somehow up to them to stop whatever the Princess was up to. But had they the ability to thwart her, or were they putting themselves into inescapable danger: Teleri by being noticed, and Ceilyn by accidentally revealing his own secrets?Edgerton spins history, mythology, magic, and alchemy into a fascinating web of chance and circumstance.Editorial Reviews"A grand story told with sly wit, CHILD OF SATURN will gain Teresa Edgerton a devoted following." -Raymond E. Feist"A fine, bright tapestry of a book!" -Katharine Kerr"CHILD OF SATURN marks the appearance of a new and exciting talent. -Tad Williams"A nicely balanced mix of intrigue and sorcery." -Locus"One of fantasy fictions most interesting trilogies ... breathtaking. -Rave Reviews

The Rings of Saturn

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
"The book is like a dream you want to last forever" (Roberta Silman, The New York Times Book Review), now with a gorgeous new cover by the famed designer Peter Mendelsund A masterwork of W. G. Sebald, now with a gorgeous new cover by the famed designer Peter Mendelsund The Rings of Saturn—with its curious archive of photographs—records a walking tour of the eastern coast of England. A few of the things which cross the path and mind of its narrator (who both is and is not Sebald) are lonely eccentrics, Sir Thomas Browne’s skull, a matchstick model of the Temple of Jerusalem, recession-hit seaside towns, wooded hills, Joseph Conrad, Rembrandt’s "Anatomy Lesson," the natural history of the herring, the massive bombings of WWII, the dowager Empress Tzu Hsi, and the silk industry in Norwich. W.G. Sebald’s The Emigrants (New Directions, 1996) was hailed by Susan Sontag as an "astonishing masterpiece perfect while being unlike any book one has ever read." It was "one of the great books of the last few years," noted Michael Ondaatje, who now acclaims The Rings of Saturn "an even more inventive work than its predecessor, The Emigrants."
