Astrology, Psychology, and the Four Elements: An Energy Approach to Astrology and it's Use in the Counseling Arts

This book is timeless in its ability to serve humanity , it is totally holistic,and it has no boundaries or judgments,it is a beautifully creative wisdom filled connection to consciousness in its highest richest format, this all facilitates limitless growth for all who choose to have no boundaries or judgement in all there explorations. Boundaries and judgement being something that could and has stunted humanity for eons of time in there ongoing quest for development and growth , something seen in so many other so called forms of expression with an often unsuccessful aim to facilitate holistic growth, Thank You White Eagle Lodge for recommending this book as a part of the course on astrology that i am at present studying, David

Whether you are new to astrology or a more experienced astrologer, this book should be on your shelf. A classic.

Great book. In depth enough to keep it interesting, but written in such a way even I could understand as a beginner. Would highly recommend.

The reason i have given it 4 stars is because i have just started reading it and it seems like everything i expected. The content seems to be interesting. Waiting to finish reading.

A bit worn but good.

Fantastic book. clear concepts and explanations. As I wrote before,I will be of much help to read this book before getting into others.Excellent reference book as well.

excellent interweaving of the old and new, astrology and psychology.

Still one of the best ways to get introduced to astrology. A must read, must start from here... Love it

This is an exceptional intermediate level astrology book. Great for those who want to understand astrology concepts in a bit more depth. This is definitely one of my favourites.

Simply, this book is a necessity for anyone who takes Psychological Astrology seriously. Arroyo presents a broader view of Astrology than usual, by viewing it as a whole - a part of everything, a system of interconnected parts- and yet at the same time this book manages to take such a vast all-encompassing concept and present it in a way that's easy to grasp, understand, and most importantly, use. Arroyo always enlightens, and this book is essential for beginning and advanced students of astrology. You will view the world differently.

Es un libro muy útil para complementar tus estudios de astrología. Stephen Arroyo es uno de los mejores astrólogos de nuestros tiempos y aborda el tema de una manera fresca.

ステファン・アロヨStephen Arroyo(1946〜)に拠る、占星術と 心理学との、統合を述べた著書（'75年）で、CRCS出版"A MODERN CLASSICS"の一冊。 著者、アロヨ氏のプロフィールは、ルイス『占星術百科』にも、項目立てが、なさ れているが、大学での学位等を、多く獲得なされた方である事、そしてかのレグルス Regulus賞等、占星術界に於ける、誉れ高きアワードを、受けた方である事を 述べておこう。 関係各位への謝辞で、特筆すべきは、著者が、本書での、引用を許可下さった著者 ・出版社のリストを、挙げているのであるが、これが13冊分にものぼる事である。 たしかに、本編通読にあたり、レヴュアーは、著者に拠る引用文章の量は、なかな かなものだな、と思う事しばしばであったのであり、なかでも、氏が直接、師事なさ った、かのルディアD.Rudhyarのそれは、しばしば出て来る−余りにも出て 来るので、途中、ルディアの文章が主で、著者のそれが従であるかの如く、勘違いし そうになる位だ。 さて内容であるが、タイトルのなかの、2つの語である、占星術・心理学について は、Pt.1(〜p.68)が、そして、4つのエレメントについては、Pt.2( p.69〜170)が、それぞれ充てられており、これらが、占星術ならびにそれが "Counselling Arts"で用いられる事とが、結び付けられるさまが、 見事に論じられたものとなっている。 Chap.3以降は、アメリカでの占星術や、占星術がいにしえの神話の 代用となりうる事が、様々な角度から、くりかえし述べられる(レヴュアーいわく、 このへんの、くりかえしぶりは、かのルディアの文章をリアルタイムに読み、その影響 をダイレクトに受けた、著者ならではのもの、といえようか)。 Pt.2 冒頭Chap.9のタイトルは、「占星術:エネルギーの言語」。サブ・ タイトルにも用いられた、エネルギーの語が使用される。このPt.2からはエレメ ントやサイン、天体にかんする叙述と、それらを心理学や相性・人間関係と結び付け、 利用してゆくさまが述べられており、一通り、占星術の基礎を、学んだ方から、通読 を推奨させて頂く。

If you are a beginner to astrology, I can imagine this would be difficult to understand. I have been studying astrology for years, read countless books and studied the signs and their characteristics. This book goes beyond to explain the houses and the elements to the planets and even the energies to full understanding. I highly recommend this book if you are intermediate to advanced in understanding astrology. This book will take you beyond what you know. Again, this is not for the beginner. Highly recommend.
