Customer Reviews

It's back on my bookshelf!

I have really missed this book when I lost track of it when I moved to aotearoa. It really is a classic which can be used as a reference book.

The Top of My List

I attended Isabel Hickey's classes at B.U. in the early seventies. This started my astrological journey which continues after 30 years. My first copy of the book fell apart I used it so much. I had to copy all my notes into a brand new book. Hickey's book is not an astrological "cook book". It blends her spiritual and psychological way of looking at a chart. It works for a beginner and for an advanced student. Thirty years (and many books) later, it is still my favorite text. Isabel was a great mentor and healer. Her spirit lives on through this book.

First Rate; My Astrology Bible

Having gotton the Astrology bug a couple of years ago, I have read a number of astrology books and perused many more.Isabel Hickey's book serves as the astrolgoy "bible" for me. It's stand-out quality is how well it takes one through the fundamentals of astrology while at the same time revealing deep and spritually profound truths underlying "the cosmic science."It is really a wonderful book.I use it so much that my copy is literally taped together at this point to keep it from falling apart. I don't want to use a new copy because I have come to rely on the many notes, annotations and underlining of key passages I've written in the text. I have hundreds of books in my home and can say that for no volume except "Astrology, A Cosmic Science."I would recommend anyone - the beginner, the advanced, and the just plain curious - to buy this book.

A classic for one and all...

When I lived in Boston I would go to hear Isabel Hickey at Boston University; her lectures were such a joy. There are so few great philosophers and metaphysicians today who give themselves in this way. I recommend this particular astrology book to all my students at Santa Fe Community College, where I teach the psychic crafts, and to my psychic and astrological clients. Hickey is almost always right-on with her "psychological astrology" readings. Everyone who is interested in astrology should own this book.

An ESSENTIAL book for any student of astrology

This is one of the most comprehensive and informative books on astrology which I have come across yet. There is so much information on everything, from the most basic tenets of astrology, to some of the more advanced concepts. I would recommend it to everyone!
