Stephen Arroyo - Böcker

ASTROLOGY, PSYCHOLOGY AND THE FOUR ELEMENTS, a recognized classic in modern astrology, is truly a pioneering book in the field of astrology. It establishes a new science of astrological psychology. Arroyo presents a language of energy that has enabled astrology to be widely and reliably used in the helping professions as well as by the general public. As Library Journal stated, "Transcending the boundaries of separate disciplines, this work represents a major distillation of astrological principles." This book relates astrology to modern psychology and explains the use of astrology as a practical method of understanding one's attunement to universal forces. It clearly shows how to approach astrology with a real understanding of the energies involved, and it includes practical instruction in the interpretation of astrological factors with more depth than is commonly found in astrological textbooks. It was awarded the Astrology Prize by the British Astrological Association.

This book focuses on precise, in-depth language that shows the reader how to think astrologically in a way that never loses sight of the basic principles and reliable meanings being considered. Those trying to learn astrology, especially as a self-help method for understanding deeper needs and motivations, have long been frustrated by the lack of a quick-reference handbook that penetrates to the essential truths that people immediately identify with. Now, this pioneering work fills the need for accessible, accurate guidelines that help one gain greater understanding of oneself and others. This widely-popular book shows how to combine key principles and interpretative phrases in a way that illuminates the meanings of the planets, signs, houses and aspects emphasized in any birth chart.

In this revised edition of an extraordinarily popular book, best-selling author Stephen Arroyo discusses the two subjects that people most often want to understand through astrology: Personal relationships and compatibility; Tuning in to the cycles that pervade and shape our lives. RELATIONSHIPS & LIFE CYCLES has sold over 80,000 copies worldwide and is internationally recognized as a breakthrough book that readers find especially easy to use, even if they know only the basics of astrology. This second edition now includes a comprehensive index to make this wealth of insight even more accessible. The spontaneous quality of this book makes it especially valuable and unique, since it includes numerous insights and tidbits of information not found in more conventional presentations.

This book is the very essence of Jupiter. From its apt title, to its generous use of many famous chart examples, to Arroyo's trademark insight and wisdom on every page, EXPLORING JUPITER is positively a winner! The presentation of the astrology is clear, practical and intelligent, making it a must for both newer students and more experienced practising astrologers. Unlike the majority of modern astrologers, Arroyo refers to Jupiter's ancient rulership of Pisces as being significant. The book includes: Jupiter through the signs, Jupiter through the houses (arranged by element), Jupiter aspects in the birth chart and so on. As always with Stephen Arroyo, it is the clarity and profound depth of these guidelines for interpretation that is so striking. The chapter on transits involving Jupiter is particularly good, building on ideas he has expressed in earlier writings.

In this collection of strikingly original material, numerous practical, as well as philosophical issues, are explored. In an in-depth, wide-ranging interview appearing in book form for the first time, Stephen Arroyo answers questions about his early years in astrology, how he came to write some of his classic works and his views on various central issues in astrology's current practice and potential future development. In another chapter, he provides concise new observations and guidelines that provide more insightful ways of understanding many factors in both individual birth charts and chart comparisons. In the other sections of this book, he discusses what astrology can contribute to psychology, how to understand the Ascendant and possible explanations of the powerful effects of planetary transit cycles. And importantly, this is the only book currently available that describes and explores his unique theory of “Subtones” as an incisive, psychologically revealing method of achieving greater depth in understanding any birth chart. In short, utilising “Subtones” is a method of synthesising the major chart factors in any person's chart in a simple, quick way that people at any level of astrological knowledge can easily learn and reliably use.
