A great book on astrology for beginners or pros

I would highly recommend this book to anyone, including those who know little about astrology. It's original and written in a way that is easy to understand. I have read quite a few astrology books and feel I understand a lot of what astrology is about. Yet this book helped to open my eyes to a new perspective on our world using astrology, especially the outer planets. The writer knows a lot about astrology, but has tried to make it accessible to everyone. It is an outstanding astrology book!

Excellent Insights!

Cosmic Trends is one of the best books I have read on how the planets influence us collectively. It's an astrology book, but it goes beyond the usual astrology. It's clearly written and really connects the outer planets to cultural trends in fascinating ways. I had to re-read the author's discussion of the astrology of the sixties--not because I didn't understand it, but because it was so interesting. He discusses the Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, and Janis Joplin in fresh ways that have a slightly mystical overtone. Beyond the music, though, the book covers a lot of territory. In my mind, this is a plus because it helped me to see the vast reaches and connections of astrology. I really enjoyed the author's Astro-Connection activities. They helped me to experience a lot of the connections the author discusses. It was so refreshing to read an astrology book that is grounded in the real world and makes astrology come alive in ways I could relate to.
