Astrology of the Famed: Startling Insights into Their Lives (Llewellyn's New World Astrology Series)
by Noel Tyl
Astrology of the Famed: Startling Insights into Their Lives (Llewellyn's New World Astrology Series)

The Mystery of Fame revealed.  And it's all true, too.  

Mars and Sex: The Secrets of Sexual Astrology
by Trish MacGregor, T. J. MacGregor

Mars and Sex: The Secrets of Sexual Astrology
List Price: $14.95

Having trouble writing convincing bed scenes?  Read this book.  

I do not recommend writers "cast a chart" for their characters -- however, one of the big problems with "Romance Novels" in general is how unbelievable or unrealistic they seem.  "What does she see in him?" is the key question -- but also "Why?" does she see it.  

If you have a beginner's knowledge of astrology and want to write Romance, get this book and work with the CD that comes with it.  Train your subconscious to create relationship patterns that people can recognize rather than project your personal biases which readers can't relate to.  

The Love Relationship Formula: Predicting Romantic Success With Astrology
by Christine Rakela


List Price: $19.95

 

Karmic Astrology: The Moon's Nodes and Reincarnation
by Martin Schulman

List Price:   $7.95

An "old" book but a classic.  Ever had a character who wouldn't confess his internal conflict?  Well, here's how to nail him to the wall!  LIFE STORIES gallore in here.  

The Astrology of Sexuality
by Martin Schulman


List Price:   $9.95

Martin Shulman is one of my favorite astrology writers.  His book SOLVE the plot problems I manage to get myself into.  Here's one that gives you profiles of characters and their ways of handling their sexuality.  This is an essential book in the Romance writer's library.  

Charting Your Spiritual Path With Astrology
by Stephanie Jean Clement

List Price:
$14.95
I couldn't find any bad or unsound advice in this book, but it didn't seem profound to me either.  I'd suggest it for beginners on all paths, or for writers looking for plot ideas.  
Astrology of Intimacy Sexuality and Relationship: Insights to Wholeness by Noel Tyl

List Price:   $17.95

 I haven't read this one yet, but knowing Tyl's background, I suspect it will have some good insights.  

 I haven't decided what I think about this new format of oddly square shaped books.  They're as tall as a hardcover, but wider so they hang off the shelf.  

This hard to find PRIMARY reference book for interpreting natal charts through time is one of my favorites, and well worth the hardcover price - because the paperback won't stand up to repeated referencing.  This one is FULL of great plots.   Planets in Transit : Life Cycles for Living (The Planet Series)
by Robert Hand, Charles A. Jayne

List Price: $24.95 -- Every beginner must have this book!  Even if you have interpretations in your software, you still NEED this book.  
The Gods of Change : Pain, Crisis and the Transits of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto (Arkana's Contemporary Astrology Series)
by Howard Sasportas

List Price: $14.95
A bit more advanced, but great for character development - learn the "story of your character's life" from these patterns.  
Solar Arcs: Astrology's Most Successful Predictive System Including Midpoints, Tertiary Progressions, Rectification, the 100-Year 'Guick-Glance' ephe
by Noel Tyl


List Price:
$19.95

This is NOT a beginner's book.  Get it and shelve it until you master Transits.  

Brady's Book of Fixed Stars
by Bernadette Brady

August 2001 - new special promotional prices - so check out this deal.  

The Fixed Stars are of interest when a natal planet is in strong aspect.  It has been found experimentally and empiracally that these stars color or influence the way a natal planet will function in a person's life.  

If you can grasp the underlying principle, you will find it of amazing use in solving plot problems or breaking writer's block.  

Read the first review on amazon about this book.  Says it all!
If you want to write a scene in your next novel where an astrologer is counseling someone -- READ this book.

If you're interested in how astrology can give us clues to the ideosyncratic aspects of health and the relationship between a satisfactory job/career life and bodily health, you really should have this book.  

Noel Tyl's book below on the timing of critical illness uses the Quindecile aspect.  

If you don't know enough about astrology to understand aspects and natal charts, stockpile this book for later when you do.  You won't regret it.  

Astrology for the Millions (Llewellyn's Classics of Astrology Library)
by Lewi Grant, Grant Lewi
List Price: $14.95

Paperback - 464 pages 6th Rev edition (April 1990)
Llewellyn Publications; ISBN: 0875424384 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.95 x 9.01 x 6.06
THIS IS THE BEGINNER'S BOOK YOU MUST HAVE IF YOU'VE NEVER EVEN HAD A CHART DONE FOR YOU.  

CLICK this title to see my review of Astrology for the Millions.  

 Heaven Knows What does not just show you how to cast a natal chart -- you can do that free on the internet in a jiffy -- it shows you how to interpret a chart.  

The usual cookbook chart interpreting books give you the meaning of one aspect at a time, ignoring the interactions.  Lewi shows you how the presence of OTHER aspects alters the meaning of individual aspects -- how a chart is an integrated whole, not a series of isolated aspects.  

THIS IS A PAIR OF BEGINNER'S BOOKS THAT GO TOGETHER.

Heaven Knows What : How to Cast Your Horoscope in 15 Minutes (Llewellyn's Popular Astrology Series)by Grant Lewi, Carl L. Weschcke (Designer) List Price: $14.95

Paperback - 352 pages 10Th/Rev edition (June 1995)
Llewellyn Publications; ISBN: 0875424449 ; Dimensions (in inches): 1.11 x 8.95 x 6.04

If you are a writing student, are convinced that there's nothing of value in astrology and it's just a laughable party game or a con-artist's gold-mine, buy Astrology for the Millions along with Heaven Knows What, it's companion volume, follow the simple directions for sketching charts of yourself, and some of your family members you know very well.  

Then do the same for a few of your characters.  THEN decide if astrology has any use for you, and perhaps get the Basil Fearrington title to begin a serious study of astrology as a writer's tool.  

If you're a beginner in Astrology, you need this book

Asked to teach a seminar on Medical Astrology, I (Jacqueline Lichtenberg) immediately yanked out my copies of Noel Tyl's books which cover how to analyze a natal chart for the individual's anxieties, developmental deficit, and the timing of their challenges by critical illnesses.  

In 10 minutes, I had enough material to fill a three day seminar, but I'd been given only three hours, maximum.  So I decided to post links and clues here so students could continue from the end of my seminar.  

Searching amazon.com for "Noel Tyl" (in the black&white amazon.com search box below) brought me to the book on your right, by one of Noel Tyl's foremost students, Basil Fearrington.  

The New Way to Learn Astrology : Presenting the Noel Tyl Method
by Basil Fearrington

List Price: $14.95

Paperback - 264 pages 1 Ed edition (October 1999)Llewellyn Publications; ISBN: 1567187390 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.68 x 9.13 x 7.54
The Noel Tyl approach is to modernize astrology by correlating and interpreting the Ancient Wisdom in terms of what modern science has discovered about the human psyche, personality development, and the scars left by even the most benign upbringing.  In the Tyl approach, nature, nurture and karma come together into a picture of the whole person, and the wholeness of Life.
