A Cosmic Dialogue: Reassessing Methods for Understanding New Planets, (Paperback)

The explosion of new celestial bodies into our consciousness demands astrological exploration, but astrologers have largely avoided this opportunity. Instead, astronomers name them and, presto - after looking up the relevant mythological nomenclature, we assume we have established that body's astrological significance. Astrologers are now planetarily-challenged - it's not just figuring out the meaning of a planet but trying to decide which celestial bodies to include or exclude from our charts. Pluto has been "demoted", signaling an extensive re-configuration of the solar system from one occupied by a few, huge planetary balls to one described by bands or swathes of celestial bodies. The question is: why now and what do these events mean? The Cosmos beckons - and as we shall see, examining them with an astrological lens reveals new layers of meaning about itself, the Earth and humanity.
