Welcome
Welcome to Astro-Stone.com, our directory of Astrology and Horoscope
information.
Since the earliest times, people have looked up to the heavens
and wondered if we could see our destiny and our future written
in the stars. Prehistoric societies, built vast monuments,
such as Stonehenge
(located in Southwest England)
that were carefully aligned to the positions of objects in the sky.
Later still, many of the civilizations of antiquity,
including the Sumerians, Egyptians, Babylonians
and Greeks, made astronomical observations and
kept astrological records.
During the Medieval period, and later, during Renaissance times,
astrology continued to be held in high regard. Scientists
of these times, many of whom are still revered today, such
as
Copernicus and
Galileo,
not only were astronomers (making scientific observations of celestial objects),
but were also practising astrologers (using the heavens as a method of predicting events ad perhaps the future)
- indeed, it is only in quite recent times that the two fields have become full distinct from
each other.
During the modern period,
astrology eventually become a distinct field of study, separate
from astronomy, but also gradually went into decline.
On the other hand, in Eastern countries, such as
India and China,
astrological traditions and culture have remained strong.
In the last few years, astrology has once again recovered some popularity in Western
countries. It is now not uncommon to see astrological columns in
many
newspapers and
magazines.
Different people of course have different opinions on the subject
of astrology, and many people are skeptical.
Indeed, as far as the state of knowledge is today, as far as we are aware,
there is no scientific proof that astrology is either accurate or effective.
Nevertheless, even for skeptics, astrology can remain a fascinating and
interesting subject.

Illustrates how aspects can offer a profound depiction of an individual and his or her destiny. • Contains comprehensive sections full of interpretations for every planetary combination. • Concepts are explained through the use of actual birth charts and diagrams. • A core textbook at the Faculty of Astrological Studies in London. Aspects are an essential piece of the astrological puzzle when it comes to interpreting and using the information that astrology can give us. It is not enough to know the placement of the planets on the horoscope. It is the relationships between the stars and planets that let us grasp the destiny of the individual. Aspects describe the drama of our lives--the complex configurations that influence what will happen to us over time. Sue Tompkins, a fellow of the Faculty of Astrological Studies in London, shows how to interpret aspects when doing daily astrological readings. She uses the lives of real people to plot the aspects and offers examples of every possible planetary combination. Detailing the influence of oppositions, trines and elemental trines, and cardinal, mutable, and fixed crosses, Tompkins shows how aspects provide the energy in the chart that transforms the horoscope into something symbolizing an alive and vital human being. With Aspects in Astrology, Tompkins provides both the novice and the experienced astrologer the evidence and concrete methods needed to grasp the vast knowledge offered to us by our horoscope. |
