SynopsisSince prehistory, humanity has been held in thrall by the night sky, captivated by the mystery of the stars. Seeking to make sense of such a magical overhead landscape, people used the stars to relate beliefs, creation stories, and mythologies. And just as the fixed stars have ancient origins in human life, their astrological interpretations get right to the heart of our lives. Celebrated astrologer Bernadette Brady melds modern astrological techniques with Egyptian and early Greek mythology to bring astrologers to a deeper understanding of the horoscope, and provides delineations for using fixed stars in chart interpretation. Her methods open a window on the fixed stars, revealing how a major star in a person's chart indicates the stage of life in which it is active and how it affirms the person's life journey through the mythology that the star represents. Though the fixed stars have been watched and studied for all of humanity, Brady's Book of Fixed Stars continues to be the astrological bible for how to use them in practice. This is an essential resource that should be on every astrologer's bookshelf. For the first time, this book offers astrologers: Paran Maps and Star Phases for over 60 stars new insights into the natal use of fixed stars, as well as their use in mundane astrology extensive appendices of Heliacal Rising and Acronychal Setting--graphs and tables so that, for any given location, the dates of these risings and settings can be found a list of 176 stars with their 21st century Ptolemaic precessed positions versus their commonly--considered positions based on Ulugh Beg's methods., A richly detailed, in-depth look at fixed stars and their role in affecting astrological predictions.
