Customer Reviews

Arrived as Promised

I received Mythic Astrology: Internalizing the Planetary Powers about a week after I ordered. The book arrived and was in very good condition, as stated. At first I thought I had received the wrong book because the title and cover was slightly different than my classmates books, but it was a newer version -- all content was the same. I'm satisfied with my purchase.

An antidote for more shallow interpretations

This book is a perfect antidote to overly simplistic, "cookie-cutter", astrology books. This is because it delves into the deep mythological symbolism behind the planets and signs. It is an excellent reference for fleshing-out a written horoscope with more than the basics. This isn't a book that is going to teach you how to cast a horoscope, however, it will help you to interpret a horoscope in terms of the deep archetypical patterns and currents for which the stars and planets are merely visible markers.Indeed, this book goes beyond providing mere historical details and trivia, it is a starting place for deep meditation on the underlieing meaning in a chart.

Mythic Astrology

This is an excellent book that ties in syncretically, astrology, the planets, the Gods and Goddesses for whom the planets are named and many of the myths relating to them and indiviual signs. In short, it is one of the few concise, deep accounts of archetypal astrology that I have read. The authors also pull a lot from depth psychology and the work of Carl Jung. It is an absolute MUST for any serious student of Astrology! You don't have to go out and buy a big book on Hellenic Mythology, just keep this and within it is all you need to know!

Perfect tool for understanding astrology

If you have any experience or knowledge with mythology, the perfect starting place for astrology is this book. Though it is OOP you may find a used copy running around, and I would advise grabbing it up. The authors explain the mythological parallels of each sign and planet and off a unique manner for interpretting astrological placements based upon each sign. Astrology didn't begin with mythology but the names given to planetary bodies did. And their relevancy to modern astrology is key in education.

a thought provoking reference to our lives

This wonderful book marries mythology with astrology in a clear concise readable tapestry. I've had my copy for 2 yrs now and I still refer to it and learn from it. It manages to explain both mythology and astrology in one effortless read. I'm constantly recommending it and lending it out to others who usually end up searching out their own copies. It's a must for anyone who enjoys reading their daily horoscope. You'll learn more about yourself and others than you thought possible, and along the way you'll learn about the ancient myths and astrology. Buy it and enjoy
