The American Ephemeris for the 21st Century: 2000 to 2050 at Midnight

I've been ordering reports from Neil Michelsen for over 30 years. In my opinion, this book is crucial for a beginner to professional... practicing astrology. My white cover copy is put away for good. I've been lost for six years looking up details here and there on the Internet. I like being able to copy a page, blow it up and keep it with my worn-out Robert Hand's PIT. I especially like the shaded area for planets in retrograde. I don't know about the flaws mentioned, but this book is accurate enough for me and is a bargain to boot for what you get.

I have two (2) expensive astrology computer programs and still rely on The American Ephemeris for daily information. No astrologer, novice or professional, should be without it. I handicap sports utilizing astrology and it has been of tremendous help to me. The only drawback I can find is it only lists Chiron's positions on a monthly basis and not on a daily basis. Outside of that I feel the book is a "must have" for the astrology library.

The serious astrologer's ultimate tool for drawing up birth charts, calculating progressions, and following the transits, eclipses, and moon phases that affect us all. A must have!

This must have ephemeris has several wonderful features which make it extraordinarily helpful to the beginner or advanced astrologer. I especially appreciate the gray highlighting used when each of the planets is retrograde. In addition, the exact timing of lunations, eclipses, Moon and planetary ingresses into the various signs, and timing of major aspects for each month are very helpful. This book opens with a Phenomena Section Explanation which is concise and understandable for even the first-time users of an ephemeris. Last but certainly not least, the typeface used is remarkably readable which is so important with such a numerically based work. Hats off to Michelsen and Pottenger -- their 20th Century Ephemeris was brilliant and they've moved on to the 21st Century with the same helpful style.

As a master astrologer with over 15 years experience, I have reviewed many such reference materials. Michelsen's Ephemeris is unrivaled by similar books in its catagory. The Sidereal data is presented in a complete, efficient and reliable manner. This guide is also easy and effortless to use.
