The inner planets--Mercury, Venus, Mars--are the foundations of what psychology calls the ego, the sense of personal self. In this fourth volume in the Seminars in Psychological Astrology series, Liz Greene and Howard Sasportas discuss the value of the inner planets as they symbolize important aspects of personality. We are not trained to give value to our private needs, feelings, and qualities. Indeed, because of their intensely personal nature, they are often suppressed or overlooked as irrelevant to society. Likewise, the inner planets have tended to be given less attention by psychological astrologers--for they are the personal planets. The authors show us that in order to give the most that we can to our interactions with the rest of the world, we must first understand our own needs and have a healthy ego-- a personal authenticity. Their book teaches us the process of understanding how these three planets actually represent our individuality, and how they directly color the energy of the rest of our horoscope. Greene and Sasportas blend the processes of astrology and psychology in a unique and important way in this in-depth insight into the archetypes represented by the inner planets.

Acclaimed astrologer Sasportas explores in detail the experiences and situations associated with each of the houses, describing not only their tangible associations but also the more subtle meanings of each of the different spheres of life.

Your astrological birthchart is a map which can guide you to true self-knowledge. Everyone born on a given day will have the same planets in the same signs, but planetary placements in the houses depend on a more individual factor - the exact place and time of your birth.

A study of the psychological effects felt during the transits of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.

Through the use of revealing case studies, this break-through work examines the psychological effects of Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus as they pass through different houses. Sasportas demonstrates how, through a greater understanding of this phenomenon, we can learn to collaborate with the inevitable and create opportunities for personal growth and development.

The three seminars included in this reprint of the original volume all deal with the themes of direction and destiny in the birth chart.
