Inside of half an hour, the text had cleared up my ambivalence about the exact degree of my Ascendant and given me a new understanding of my Sun degree#8212one vastly more evocative than the traditional Sabian interpretation. Martin Goldsmith is a poet in the old sense of the word: he's on fi re with imagery and the fire is contagious." #8212Steven Forrest, author of The Inner Sky "At last! An astrologer who has undertaken the huge workload of intensive research into the individual degrees of the zodiac. Thanks to his years of work, Goldsmith has finally taken this area of astrology out of the misty, intuitive, 'channeled' area of the Sabian symbols onto the firmer and more reliable footing of good, grounded research. This long-needed book is therefore and essential reference work for any serious astrologer."#8212Bernadette Brady, author of Predictive Astrology




360 Degrees of Your Star Destiny


Book Description

• Explains how each of the 12 signs of the zodiac has 30 degrees, and each degree, like every star, is the center of a whole system of meanings • Provides detailed write-ups for each of the 360 degrees of the zodiac • Details how to use the degrees for personal chart interpretation and as an oracle for guidance and inspiration In this extraordinary synthesis of 50 years in star work, astrologer Ellias Lonsdale explains how each of the 12 signs of the zodiac has 30 degrees, and each degree, like every star, is the center of a whole system of meanings. Inspired by the Chandra Symbols--evocative images for each degree channeled by John Sandbach nearly 40 years ago--as well as his studies with master astrologers Dane Rudhyar and Marc Edmund Jones, Lonsdale explores the deeper story, or Star Spark, of each of the 360 degrees of the zodiac, providing detailed write-ups for each degree. The author explains how to use the degree of your Sun sign and other planets from your birth chart for personal chart interpretation. Offering a way to tune in to your future star cycles as well as analyze a past event, he discusses how you can learn about personal cycles from studying the degree of a transiting or progressed planet at a specific time, such as Mercury Retrograde, or by following the degree meanings for successive New Moons or Solar Returns, revealing collective as well as personal timings. He also details how to use the 360 Star Sparks as an astrological oracle to consult when you need guidance or support for your awakening process as well as how they can be used as a source for daily contemplation by following the Sun through each degree day by day throughout the year. Providing an astrological tool to help you see deeply inside your life, your shadow, what you are questioning, and where you are being guided, this key to the symbolic power of the 360 degrees of the zodiac shows that by embracing our star cycles, we can discover our unique life path and light up the stars within.

Inside Degrees


Book Description

In much the same way in which he characterized planets and asteroids as powerful, gendered beings in Inside Planets, Ellias Lonsdale gives new depth and nuance to degree analysis, an area often seen as technical or reduced to cliche. The degree symbols are most useful in elaborating a personal birth chart. One can learn about personal cycles from studying the place of a transiting or progressed planet by degree at a given time, revealing collective as well as personal timings. The Zodiac degrees also act as an oracle. One can open the collection anywhere for a given day, or in response to a question. The degrees will reveal what is happening now and, if we are attentive and responsive to the cues, what is required of us. By comparing charts of friends and famous people who are known for certain qualities, one can gradually discriminate among the degrees. These beautifully written and fully imagined readings of the Chandra degree symbols speak to a deep level of personal change and authenticity.




Degrees of the Zodiac: Revised Edition


Book Description

Degrees of the Zodiac was written by noted astrologer Esther V. Leinbach and originally published by Macoy Publishing Company in 1973. This Revised Edition from the author's son, Kevin Leinbach, has been updated for the new Millennium, using the Author's original source material and research. Popular Astrology takes into consideration only one factor: the location of the Sun in the Zodiac, the Sun Sign. Even some astrologers only consider the twelve signs of the Zodiac and disregard the individual 30 degrees that make up the total span of the sign. But the degrees are a very significant influence in the chart and more and more astrologers are discovering how important degrees are to horoscope interpretation. The 360 Degrees in the circle of the Zodiac are activated by the Sun, the Moon and the Planets, even the house cusps of every horoscope. These degrees help to account for the many different expressions of each individual sign. Degree influences have often been seen as ethereal and mysterious, relying on symbolism to suggest potential expressions. Perhaps the advantage of symbols is that they can be interpreted in the current context directly. But symbols can also be quite difficult to decipher. This book was originally written to bring the symbolism into a descriptive, practically applicable format that can more easily be used in chart interpretation. The approach is psychological rather than symbolic. It was intended to be accessible to the novice as well as the professional astrologer. But when particular references are made to current insights or methods, there is some danger that degree descriptions can become outdated. This Revised Edition has been released to update the descriptions with a current perspective and incorporate a context and evolutionary perspective that was simply not in place when Degrees of the Zodiac was originally published.




Star Sparks


Book Description




Inside Planets


Book Description

For centuries, spiritual seekers have turned to astrology to discover humans' deepest connections with the Earth and the cosmos. But too often, astrology devolves into meaningless clich's or impersonal newspaper horoscopes. In the early part of this century Marc Edmund Jones and Dane Rudhyar liberated astrology from the fatalistic approach of the medieval world. They took power from the high-and-mighty archaic planet gods, and offered it back to human beings. Here, at the end of the century, Inside Planets goes further, invoking each planet as a mighty full-bodied organism with a character and a soul of its own, a living breathing force with passion and humor and purpose that changes as it moves through the houses and signs. Each planet grabs you by the imagination and drags you to the campfire of The Greatest Story Even Told. Far more than an astrology guide, this book resuscitates from the ancient mystery temples of Atlantis an elegant and inspiring pantheon of wonder, terror, and creative solution to the problems that plague the soul.
