Applied astrology : companion book to The modern text-book of astrology

The author of this book has found that students who wish to advance past the stage of learning the basic concepts of astrology and inquirers who want to know whether there really is a relationship between the sky-pattern at the time of a birth and the life-pattern of the person born, are both balked by the fact that no book of examples of astro-analyses has hitherto been available. Through the kindness of those who have given permission, a series of well-varied examples can now be read. With each is the chart of the birth-moment by both the Equal House and the Placidean systems of house division; marginal astrological references are given for each deduction made from the chart and a case-history of the subject of the chart is included with his or her own subsequent comments. The Keyword System of Interpretation is used, as taught in The Modern Text Book of Astrology, thus leading the student to wider fields of experience. 'Those who study this book and carry out its precepts are likely to reach a high standard of work far more quickly than those who have no such guidance. In fact, if they conscientiously and carefully study the author's methods they can scarcely fail to produce excellent results. If they are naturally endowed with an interest in human nature and a genuine desire to help mankind, so much the better. That is a sine qua non for all who aspire to be really good professional astrologers.' Charles E. O. Carter, B.A. (London) D.F.ASTROL.S. After many years of teaching astrology, first to private pupils and then to classes, it has become increasingly obvious that the student is hampered in his early days by not being able to see examples of work set out and arranged by a working astrologer. It is hoped that this book will help to fill the need especially for those abroad, unable to attend lectures. Other astrologers may not agree with the interpretations as given but even this case, clarification of ideas may result through the presentation of these examples for discussion. Grateful acknowledgment is now made, firstly to those who have so freely given permission for their personal letters and chart-interpretaations to be published; secondly to those who have helped to correct the book; Miss Jacinthe Buddicom, who has acted as checker of signigicators and Mr. J.M.Filbey, who calculated the charts.
