Why is the fantastic work (The Gods of Change: Pain, Crisis, and the Transits of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto) out of print???I blew $60 of my birthday cash on getting a used copy, and lemme tell ya'll that it was worth it. Since it is so dang expensive, I will (over the course of a looong period of time) post the introductory parts for ya'll to read here. I will not post neither the "cook-book" sections nor the case studies in the hope that doing so (and not profiting from what I post) will prevent my being sued. (Because the intros will just serve to whet your appetites...see? Advertising. At least that's how I'm hoping anyone remotely involved with the book will see it ) *taps microphone* Please don't ask me to post or blog what Uranus transiting your whos-ma-whichit means. I won't tell you. And I'll be annoyed that you didn't read the beginning of this post carefully. IP: Logged |

Thank you Proxieme so much for posting that. Many are in a bad way right now with the upheavals they are experiencing with change. The heavens are pushing us all towards the new. The Solar and recent lunar eclipse have brought on a tableau of uncertainty, chaos, and reflection is difficult as we are bombarded by certain feelings about events in our lives. This is most timely. A considerate and well recieved post.IP: Logged |

I figured that already!! Ha,ha....we know those auction sites have usually only ONE copy...but I didn't know if possibly there was a e-book-store you found that had it priced inexpensively! Thanks again-I have never checked Froogle...though have heard about that site! Boy do I want a copy of this...I will not pay $80 for it if I can help it!! GemStar IP: Logged |

"The Core Self and the Birthchart" is up....The only caveat being that you should read the posts in backwards order of how they're appearing IP: Logged |

Thanks lq I figure this is a better way to contribute than offering to write-up parts of a book that pertain to specific individuals. While that's usually much appreciated, it soon becomes overwhelming (there's a few threads I started like that a long time ago - one on Sun/Moon combos that went insane). A project like this with clearly stated parameters can stay manageable IP: Logged |
