My Way

Before I begin throwing some items out of my astrological toybox, I'm going to write a few lines about my own way of thinking about astrology. I also want to acknowledge some of those who have helped me thus far on the way along my lengthy learning curve.

I see astrology as a delicate wildflower. Natural, fragile, yet strong enough to withstand the vagaries of climate; simple, yet carrying within it the complexity of nature itself. It was never meant to be used as part of a sophisticated corsage, an altar dressing, an abstract piece of artwork, or to be crushed for its perfume , or dissected for experimentation. It deserves to be understood for what it is : an intrinsically beautiful part of nature. Like a wildflower, astrology deserves to be treated gently, lightly and with great respect.

I acknowledge with gratitude the helpful information I have gleaned (and continue to glean) from a variety of sources, past, present. A few names and places - not exhaustive, but representative :-
