    The author has chapters on planets, houses and aspects that include quite a bit of detail. There's also examples about how to combine these into an interpretation.

    Everything is written in a friendly, non-technical style -- but what I love most about this is the assertion that astrology is not fatalistic.

    "Rocks in the sky," as my late father called them, cannot make you do *anything*. Astrology does not predict an absolute future for anyone.

    Instead, the overall theme in this book is that astrology can help you become a better person. It shows areas of struggle that you can choose to improve on. It indicates areas in your life that come easy to you (but be careful of becoming lazy there).

    Astrology may show that you have an affinity for children, but it doesn't guarantee you'll have any. That's up to you and your birth control method!

    I found the author's writing style and approach to this subject to be useful and exactly what makes sense!

    Donna has a background as a LMSW. All you need is your own chart and to be honest with yourself. I purchased this book as a replacement for my original one. The last time I lent it out I didn’t get it back. I have used Astrology as adjunct to counseling. I highly recommend it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and compassionate introduction to astrology
    Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2001
    One of the first astrology books I bought, many years ago, it still makes interesting reading. With the main emphasis on the planets, Donna Cunningham provides an excellent overall introduction to chart interpretation and transits. It is obvious that this book is based on a great deal of practical experience working with astrology, and her extensive background in social work and mental health is a strong positive influence.
    The approach to astrology here is all about empowering the individual. The planets mirror back to us the truth of our lives, and armed with this self-knowledge we can begin to take more responsibility for ourselves. The chart can help by showing more constructive uses of our basic traits. Cunningham is keen to avoid any cop-out as in blaming our chart or the planets for bad things in our lives. "Wrong thinking and wrong actions are at the root of most of our troubles" sums up her approach.
    One unusual feature are comments on the meaning of the symbols for some of the planets and signs e.g. the glyphs for Jupiter and Saturn being upside down versions of each other. There are many other interesting bits and pieces. The final chapter is a very touching and moving account of an evening with astrological students who are recovering alcoholics, and their trip to an astronomical observatory.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent project.
    Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 1999
    Donna Cunningham has produced a fine work here. This is a terrific manual for those who want to 'feel' what the planets mean as well as know their meanings on an intellectual level. She explains how we must all deal with all of the planets in our lives and how we can turn negative chartacteristics into positive ones. For example, a Neptune in the 1st house has the potential to be parasitical, and dependent on drugs or alcohol yet can also be a sensitive counsellor or talented musician. Her concluding chapter 'The Stars Via Subway' in which she takes her students on an excursion is one of the most heartfelt pieces of writing on astrology I have ever read. Compassionate and easy to understand, a worthwhile addition to anyones library.

    Very insightful with many personal views on certain subjects. I highly recommend it for beginning astrology students as it gives a very open-minded and informative view of the field.
