Like a language, astrology has a form that must be decoded. This 6 page laminated guide presents the necessary data points and guidelines for interpreting an astrological chart in the tradition of mainstream Western astrology. An exhaustive overview of every possible interpretive principle and use is not possible without diluting and diminishing the richness of all astrology’s various traditions. Instead, this guide seeks to go deep rather than wide by containing the basic mechanics common in mainstream Western astrological practice with instructions in its use including a guide to the astrological chart, figures, tables, formulas and glossary, along with a list of important Western astrologers throughout the centuries to whom a student can turn to expand their knowledge. Author Rev. Nathaniel Craddock, MDiv, QHP, is a classical astrologer, priest & UCC minister and spiritual director with practice and research focus on the use of horary astrology as a spiritual care modality, as well as astrology for vocational discernment.
