The Fixed Stars and Constellations in Astrology

I bought this book because (1) there is little in the marketplace on this topic other than Bernadette Brady and (2) while I think Bernadette Brady's book is useful, I find its organization rather convoluted. I thinik Robson's earlier book provides a streamlined and more accessible companion to Brady. Having said that, it appears that much of the standard interpretation of fixed stars derives from Ptolemy's Tetrabiblos, and I've also found it useful to go back to this source.

This is a wonderful source for learning more on the fixed stars in ones natal and solar chart readings, it brings forth the energies which are not typically recognized when one has a reading completed. Along with the descriptions, it brings about a deeper understanding into what the fixed stars mean when in specific constellations which too has never been written. I recommend this to anyone who does readings or is just interested in understanding the cosmos on a deeper level.Darcie Veléz

Un libro recomendado por mi maestro y que forma párate de mi biblioteca, todo astrólogo debe conocer esta parte fundamental para enriquecer su interpretación

The problem with this book is that we have no idea where Robson got some of his historical and mythological information about the constellations from. Some sources are listed while other claims are anyone's guess. And because the author is deceased we can't exactly ask.

It was not at all what I expected. Will not buy any books unless I have already checked it out. Would like to return it, but don’t know how. Unable to return item.

Impressive!

Classical text that really lives up to the legend.

interesting!

À tort ou à raison, cet ouvrage reste une référence clé pour tout astrologue qui veut se familiariser dans ke domaine difficile de l’utilisation des étoiles fixes, même si son contenu n’est désormais pas sans critique au vu des latitudes élevées de certaines étoilesCeci dit, ce dernier aspect est largement discuté au sein de la communauté des astrologues.

Recentemente comece a estudar Jyotish. Este livro aborda bastante estrelas, suas constelações e as lendas por trás da historia de cada estrela importante. Recomendo.

A CLASSIC

It is a collection of data an principles gathered across varius forms of astrology that use the fixed stars. A nice reference book indeed.

A classical for reference. Always handy to refer to or to check others when they refer to this classical publication
