Expert summary

Astrology can be defined as the study of the positions of celestial bodies and their influences on human action and destiny. It dates back to the third millennium BC. Until the modern ages astronomy and astrology were interchangeable. Gradually astronomy developed as a scientific study and astrology came to be regarded as a mere belief system or a tradition. Modern astrologers consider astrology as a symbolic language, a form of divination and even as a form of art. In astrology, the positions of celestial bodies are used to predict the future. Scientists often regard astrology as pseudoscience or as superstition. However, a large number of people regard it a scientific study even today.

    Astrology for Yourself: How to understand and Interpret your own birth chart
    have not ever found a better astrology book for those people who simply want to understand their own chart. They don't want to wade knee deep through understanding the possible planet/sign/house/aspect combinations for the rest of the world. (or they don't want to dedicate the number of years it takes to become adept). This book can take them from zero understanding to a respect and deepened understanding of their own chart.
