The New A to Z Horoscope Maker and Delineator the New A to Z Horoscope Maker and Delineator

This book has a fault, I'll start off with that. When describing the aspects, it describes Postivie Aspects and Negative Aspects. There are five major aspects: Conjunction (neutral), Trine and Sextile (positive), and Square and Opposed (negative). I do like having Conjunction listed separately at least. Most astrology texts lump the positives and lump the negatives, but leave the conjunction as a separate category.Beyond that, this book does have all the formulae you need to assemble a chart. You will need an ephemeris for planetary positions, and a house table (...) for the house cusps, but those are just the input numbers. This book tells you how to crunch the numbers.More importantly, this book tells you a lot about interpretation, even with what it leaves out. Dividing the chart up into roughly 20 categories, it helps the astrologer determine which parts of the chart are relevant to which topic. That is a very central point, very necessary, very useful, and has become the foundation of my astrology.

Llewellyn has made a living from publishing books that are pertinent to the field of astrology and tarot, and this book is no different. This is every astrologer or wanna-be astrologer's must have! I keep it right next to my Devore Encyclopedia on my desk. Written in almost a dictionary-esque format, this book gives the reader simple and informative answers to every possible word associated with astrology. Combine that with a wonderful step by step lesson in learning astrology...this is truly the only astrology book you'll ever need.

One of the best books on the subject. Something for every level of knowledge. Admittedly more informative to beginners because of the extremely simple way the information is set up. There are literally thousands of delineations to choose from as you learn A-L-L about Astrology. You can literally open the book cover and go from complete ignorance to almost expert long before reaching the other cover. There is VERY little "fat" or nonsense in this book. It's the Joe Friday of Astrology books: "Just the facts Ma'am!" The only reason for one to buy any other book would be to further the exploration of all you may glean from reading this one. An expert may want more wordy dissertation about any of the hundreds of astrological subjects introduced to the reader. But, that is what makes this ideal for beginners and intermediate astrologers. Those who want to de-mystify the mumbo jumbo they usually hear from those in the know would do well to drink from this fountain first. They will be amazed at how much sheer knowledge is shared on every page. And, it is all crystal clear but concise and to the point. You can't go wrong with this one!!

The A-Z Horoscope Maker book has all the information you need to become a proficeint astrologer. This is a book you will use as a reference for your whole career. It was written in 1910, back when must astrologers had a darker outlook. This book does has a doom and gloom feel to it with the harsh interpretations and meaning. The moderen astrologer knows to modify the pessimistic meanings and look on the brigher side of things. A total understanding of this book will make you into a confident astrologer after following the examples in the A-Z book. This is one of the few books that teach you how to read a chart and what it all means. For the $15 price, this book will be a constant lifetime companion, I think of it as one of the bibles for astrologers. This book is the real deal,no sun sign cheese or generalizations here. This book contains the precise calculations and math formulas needed to do charts by hand, something that many moderen astrologers have forgotten. If you want to become an astrologer you'll need this book!

I have this book for already 10 years now and I concern it as the bible of astrology. No other book has al this features.
