⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Grabbed this during a weekend order. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. Shipping was quick too.
I've read excerpts online before, but having the full text is different. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. Some archaic spellings slow things down. Still worth having on the shelf.
Volume 2 of the Seminars in Psychological Astrology series stands out on our astrology shelf as a compelling synthesis of chart work and depth psychology. Writing with formal professional authority, Liz Greene seamlessly weaves psychoanalytic concepts into symbolic chart reading, offering invaluable frameworks for exploring aggression, depression, and personal evolution. However, its specialized focus means it is not universally suited for every practitioner. Those seeking strictly traditional, non-psychological horary methods or direct predictive techniques will find little utility in these pages. For readers committed to examining the human psyche through an astrological lens, it is an essential reference.
