Here at last are the collected essays of the world's leading astrologer. In one comprehensive volume, Essays on Astrology makes a cross section of Robert Hand's writings available to both the beginning and advanced astrologer. Robert Hand is one of the few astrologers to successfully work and publish in both the technical and humanistic dimensions of astrology. Because of this, his work is read, reread and respected by all serious astrologers. And this book presents a comprehensive look at the various essays of this very important author. As a reference book, Essays on Astrology is an invaluable resource. Some articles written several years ago, such as The Ascendant, Midheaven and Vertex in Extreme Latitudes, have been extremely hard to find. Still others are printed here for the very first time making this not only a reprint of Robert Hand's previous works, but an important addition to the study of astrology.

The Compendium of Astrology is the most comprehensive astrology book over published. The Compendium contains the basic information needed to build a horoscope.

Never before have the master numbers - 11, 22, 33, through 99 - been examined in such depth and detail. Faith Javane, one of the most respected numerologists in the country, reveals the significance of these power indicators, both in our personal lives and in a historical and cosmic sense. She looks at the progression of the master numbers as the journey the soul takes as it seeks to master the different levels of understanding. Javane also analyzes the two single-digit numbers that, when added together, equal a master number, for example 2+9=11. These numbers within numbers "test" how well we have learned the lessons of the master numbers and whether we are ready to move on to the next level.

In this compelling and fascinating study, authors Cataldo and Pelletier invite the reader to search himself to find and utilize the vast riches within. Through fourteen chapters the value of astrology and its influence on human behavior is explored and discussed through text and charts. Helpful topics covered include how the dynamics of behavior work; how others view you in relation to self-assessment; discovering potentials and weaknesses and how to handle them; how to determine the causes and solutions to stress problems, depressions, diseases, and so forth; how to detect the passionate from the frigid and the liar from the honest person; exploring your uniqueness; and looking ahead to developing life cycles for the coming days, weeks, months, and years. The reader will discover that not only is he a constituent of one of the twelve zodiacal signs, but also what that means and how it influences his life and behavior.

First and foremost, this is a reference book on rulerships; second, this is a classical concordance. Although astrological works dating from the seventeenth century and earlier lack explanations or discussions of the methods of assigning rulerships, we know that rulerships were assigned, and continue to be assigned, right up to the present moment, as new concepts/things are invented/discovered. Dr. Lehman examines how this process was really practiced in the classical period to give us insights into how to proceed today.
