Combining the design values of a magazine with the content of a reference work, this is a concise introduction to astrology.
Coupled with the allure and mystery of things we don't quite understand and the excitement of predicting the future, astrology has an enormous following. Some declare their interest quite openly, while others check their "stars" surreptitiously, but sixty per cent of people are said to believe that a person's star sign influences their character.
Discover the history of astrology from its origins in Mesopotamia and Egypt to its current popularity all over the world. Learn how to create a birth chart, what transits are and the difference between houses and astral planes. Compare astrology with other techniques for prediction - runes, tarot and numerology. Read about the controversy that surrounds it - the scientists who scoff and the practising astrologers who believe in it implicitly. Find out where to download useful software packages and learn more.
