This insightful and original book focuses on the understanding and use of astrology as a tool for spiritual and psychological growth. In contrast to traditional prediction-oriented astrology, this new approach to the most ancient of all sciences is based upon the law of karma and the urge toward self-transformation. Especially emphasizing the transformative and karmic significance of Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, this book places all astrological techniques in a growth-oriented perspective. It is especially pertinent for those whose interest in astrology is based on a recognition of its spiritual significance and its value for enhancing self-knowledge. Included are chapters on such topics as: karma & relationships; progressions; transits; astrology in the Edgar Cayce readings; the meaning of the Ascendant & its ruler; and a positive approach to Saturn. In addition, the chapters on Pluto and on the aspects are the most complete in-depth treatments of these subjects now available in print.… (lisätietoja)
If you're a beginner, this book is an absolute godsend. It strips away the unnecessary astrological theories and focuses on the essentials. His descriptions of the three outer planets (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) are infused with sharp perceptivity to the "inner environment",, which will appeal to those looking for personable advice, rather than the dry, intellectual discussions or mystical, woolly explanations that merely contribute to the incitation of modern skepticism. The chapters on progressions and transits are also an eye-opener, and its non-fatalistic presentation will encourage readers to look at these cycles of pain and confusion as lessons for self-development, and not as events that occur randomly, or 'bad luck' to pin the blame on.
Though the chapters here are actually quite in-depth, this book feels like I'm only getting a tantalizing taster of his awesomeness. I'm definitely tempted to read more of his books, if I can get them somehow... ( )
An interesting book on the importance of the outer planets and their relation to karma. Arroyo excels at explaining abstract concepts such as karma in a way that’s understandable to everyone, though it did take me some time to get used to his rather formal writing style. I found the chapters on Saturn transits and aspects to the outer planets particularly insightful. There are few astrology books that put this much emphasis on the outer planets and are able to explain their energies in a refreshing way, and I appreciate Arroyo’s insights very much. However, Arroyo is an avid user of the Astrological Alphabet - an oversimplified concept of the astrological houses in attempt to make astrology more accessible - and this affects his credibility. I also didn’t think the chapter on Edgar Cayce’s readings added much. All in all though, this is a must-have if you want to learn more about the outer planets and are open to a more spiritual outlook on astrology. ( )

The word "karma" is used in so many ways by occultists, astrologers, and others concerned with the universal laws that guide our lives that, in considering the relation of astrology to karma, we should first of all clarify the meaning of the term.

In short, if the astrologer remains true to his personal ideals and is sensitive to the ideals and values of his clients, his work as a counselor will often be rewarded with immensely revealing and beautifully subtle experiences.
