Catch a Rising Star An Astrological Guide to Parenting in the 21st Century

Twenty years ago Helena Francis asked herself the question: "If modern science cannot provide an answer to our confusion, then can the ancient art of astrology help us find a solution?" This book amply demonstrates that it both can and does. It is important that the reader understands that this is not the same kind of astrology that fills our newspapers and magazines. Helena has applied her researches to what has become known as psychological astrology. During the latter half of the twentieth century, the emerging discipline of psychology was allied to astrology, itself once the 'psychology' of the ancient world. Astrology underwent a massive reworking as many astrological ideas of the past were challenged and revised. The results were spectacular -- the combination of astrology and psychology confirmed the validity of both subjects. Astrology used in this way becomes a reliable decoder of human character.
