Literary Review The angels on our Christmas cards, the stained glass in our churches, the great paintings in our galleries - Edward Burne-Jones''s work is all around us.

Apollo's Chariot: The Meaning of the Astrological Sun - Liz Greene

Many people are familiar with astrology only through Sun-sign columns in newspapers, but they have little understanding of what it really means to be born “under” a particular zodiac sign. The astrological student may know that the Sun is the most important factor in the birth horoscope; but frequently used terms such as “self expression”give little insight into this most profound and complex of astrological symbols. The seminars in this reprint of the CPA Press original volume explore the many dimensions of the astrological Sun, from the Sun as a father symbol to its importance as a significator of personal identity, vocation, and spiritual values. Also examined are progressions of the Sun to natal planets, and major planetary aspects to the natal Sun. With so little written work available on the Sun in the horoscope, this innovative volume off ers psychological and astrological perspectives, which will be invaluable for both the student and the professional astrologer.
