Many Start out with Natal/Birth Astrology, I recently bought the Collins gem book on astrology which is very factual on each sign.

John frawleys books are good,

Christian astrology by william lily is interesting if you like predicting. But written in traditional english, so its difficult to interpret.

Synastry by Ronald C Davison, Excellent book for understanding planet placements.

Criminal astrology Vol 1 by Kirsty Mcintosh, is a very interesting Read, she uses Event Charts showing the suspect, victim, location, to solve a crime scene.

But aslong as you choose a book which covers a multitude

nataliacytrus I recommend "Astrology for the Soul" by Jan Spiller, its about North Nodes, really cleared things up for me.

Aunt Clara My all-time favorite book about astrology is "Secrets From A Stargazer´s Notebook" by Debbie Kempton-Smith. Of all the astrology books on my shelf, hers is the best for a beginner, IMHO and I love her sense of humor.

Chiron the centaur » Iceblu333 Hi there,

Their is so many ...

I think a good one to start would be

Astrology, Psychology, and the Four Elements
Stephen Arroyo

You can search sometimes for free pdf online, specially old astrology books.

Like message of the stars by max heindel.

I was also able to find a free pdf of Dane Rudhyar:
The Twelve Astrological Houses

You will find eventually your style of astrology and relate to a specific type of books

But it’s good to keep your mind open !

Welcome to astrology

Iceblu333 » Chiron the centaur I do keep an open mind...

Thanks for the add on´s.

Are you good at astrology?

Chiron the centaur » Iceblu333 I would say it’s my passion, like most of us in this site !


If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them.

Iceblu333 » Chiron the centaur Hmm, ok.

Have time to read my chart?

Chiron the centaur » Iceblu333 I think you should post your chart here !

So everyone has a chance to take a bit ;)

It always good to receive many opinions on your chart and also to explore it by yourself after ...

Iceblu333 » Chiron the centaur Nah, .

I was just curious.

vunky » Trevor77 Thank you! For the moment I’m trying to consolidate my general knowledge of astrology, but the ones you suggested to me seem to be very interesting I’ll take a look at them as soon as I have some time

vunky » nataliacytrus Thank you I found the pdf of it so I´ll read it very soon

vunky » Iceblu333 Thank you

I am in search of a really good book on aspects to the ascendant in synastry!
Any good tips for me?

catarinaramanzini I´ll soon be reading "Christian Astrology", by William Lilly. But I´ve also seen a brazilian traditional astrologer recommending "Book of Instructions in the Elements of the Art of Astrology", by Al-Biruni, and "The Horary Textbook", by John Frawley. All of them are available on this website: https://z-lib.org/

Certainly, knowledge is in the astrology of ancient times,seven stars astrology.

JayJayAstrology Love all the recommended books - some I´ve not heard of - so thanks for the post. I have a recommended reading list on my website if you care to check it out - https://thesoulmustsing.weeblysite.com/…

JayJayAstrology » Chiron the centaur We read the same kinds of books, Chiron the Centaur! Love these authors.

JayJayAstrology » dani_mae1 Like your book list, Dani Mae - I have several of them. There really are so many good books written by amazing astrologers!!!

Chiron the centaur Hello Vunky,

There’s so many !

First, if you are serious about it, you should find a teacher.

Personally I read in French usually but I like Alan Oken (rulers of the horoscope is cool). You can try Jan Spiller for the moon’s nodes. Grant Lewi is interesting. You have classics like Dane Rudhyar.

Many old pdf also are free online like Karmic Astrology by Martin Shulman, plenty of Liz Greene, William Lilly old school knowledge, etc.

It’s not astrology but I recommend you read in Carl Gustav Jung eventually on the unconscious and the archetypes.

Later on you can read on Alice Bailey and Master D.K. and much more. Lots of fun ahead of you 😊

Enjoy
