Ronald Davison's Astrology

Ronald Davison's Astrology is unquestionably the best beginner's book on astrology ever written. Davison has deep insight into the meanings of the planets, signs, houses, and aspects and has the facility of communicating complex ideas succinctly and clearly. His system of keywords makes learning the meanings of the astrological symbols easy. Highly recommended!

Classic comprehensive introduction to astrology

More than any other, this book laid the foundations for my work as a professional astrologer over the last 15 years. Having read or browsed through just about every astrological text available during that time, I can still recommend it as the most concise and comprehensive summary of the basics of chart interpretation available in one book.Davison makes good use of a keyword system which helps in the clarity and accessibility of the information. Many subtle "esoteric" snippets are also included throughout, insights and perspectives that are neglected by most more modern introductions to astrology. The treatment of the signs of the zodiac, planets, planets in signs, planets in houses and so forth is excellent. There is no waffle here. Philosophical, scientific, practical, historical, spiritual perspectives and others are all covered. The last few chapters bring it all together with some example delineations.I would recommend this book to anyone starting out, perhaps together with some lighter reading such as "Parker's Astrology" or some of the other large and colourful introductions available.
