Book excerpt: Now you can understand how astrologers comprehend environmental issues of the 21st century. In this ground-breaking work, traditional astrological methods for assessing outer planet cycles, then the full integration of the meanings of the upcoming Neptune and Pluto cycles through 2065, are studied in depth. A full history is presented with over seventy complete examples of how the Aries Ingress charts and the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction series were developed to appreciate both short-term and long-term trends. This work does not require prior knowledge of either classical or mundane astrology (however, experience in these areas would be helpful). Discover how the astrological events of 2012 are not as important as future configurations, although it is so important that the configurations are understood now.
