Astrology for the Soul
Cafe
Astrology Review: This is an
invaluable work, both for those new to Astrology and advanced
students of the subject. The positions of the Nodes of the Moon by
sign are interpreted in detail. The approach is both spiritual and
practical. Jan Spiller offers advice for how to best work with the
individual issues we face as a result of the placement of the
highly sensitive nodal axis of the Moon.
Each chapter is dedicated to
extensive interpretations of the position of the Moon's North Node
through each zodiac sign, and is broken down into sections: "Overview" offers specific
attributes to develop, tendencies to leave behind, and the basic
desires of the group; "Personality" describes the
general traits and issues peculiar to the position;
"Needs" reveals the basic needs of the individual along
with practical suggestions for how to go about satisfying them;
"Relationships" reveals some patterns of relating to
significant others; "Goals" offers the strengths and
weaknesses of each position's tendency to seek what they want; and
"Healing Theme Song" presents lyrics to the author's
songs designed to help heal the lessons for each group.
The author often writes of past
lives, but keep in mind that the book is useful to those who don't
subscribe to past life theories. "Astrology for the
Soul" is beautifully written and offers valuable insights
into the lessons and issues that face each position (by sign) of
the North Node. The chapters can be read just as easily using the
house placement of the North Node--if your North Node is in the
first house, for example, the North Node in Aries chapter will
apply. Our Rating: A

Karmic Astrology: The Moon's Nodes and Reincarnation (Karmic Astrology)
Cafe
Astrology Note: Although written almost 30
years ago, this book contains valuable information about the
Nodes of the Moon by sign and house!
New Moon Astrology: Using New Moon Power Days
Cafe Astrology Note: New Moon Astrology by Jan
Spiller, although dedicated mostly to the power of the New
Moon in self-development efforts, contains insightful
information about the Nodes of the Moon.
The first portion of the book is devoted to providing practical instructions for
creating and verbalizing wishes in relation to the days of the New Moon in each
sign of the zodiac. The New Moon periods are considered to be power periods in
the astrological cycle, with the signs defining the areas of life and our
personalities that we can focus our wishes for self-development on. The section on
the Nodes of the Moon offers practical solutions for releasing
past karma based on our positions of the Moon's Nodes by sign
and house. Specific wishes and affirmations are included for
these positions. Although very adequate in terms of
interpretations of the Nodes of the Moon, Jan Spiller's
Astrology for the Soul (at left) covers these points in
greater depth.
