  • In this video I talk about the single best intro to astrology book that I've found for beginners, which is titled Astrology: Using the Wisdom of the Stars in Your Everyday Life, by Carole Taylor.
    I just found this book earlier this year in a bookstore, and it quickly became my new favorite book to recommend new students of astrology, because it is 1) very comprehensive yet concise and easy to read, 2) extremely well-illustrated, 3) covers both beginner and intermediate concepts, and 4) it is also very affordable and easy to find.
    You can get the book on Amazon here:

    I interviewed Carole Taylor on episode 266 of The Astrology Podcast, on the topic of aspect patterns, and we talked about the book at the beginning:

    Can you do a video on the best books for advancing your learning, once you've got the basics down pat? Where do you go next when you know all about signs, planets, houses, aspects, and birth charts? Thanks in advance.

    My first astrology book was Isabelle Hickey's Astrology: A Cosmic Science, then I went on to Dane Rudhyar's The Astrology of Personality. Pretty rough start, lol. Doing Chris Brennan's Hellenistic course now - learning a ton!

    I love this book! Ive been taking an intense astrology study course, and i often grab it for quick reference when i need, lets say, ruling planet, or quick key words. The book looks really simple at first glance, and looks like it wouldn’t offer much, but i was mistaken. Its laid out really simply and cleanly. It will be a permanent part of my collection of astrology books. Looking forward to receiving the new edition of Parkers Astrology coming out this week as well.

    I 100% agree. This book is wonderful for beginners and just to have in your collection because of the great foundational information and because it's just so beautiful. Thanks for the recommendation, Chris! I bought it immediately after your recent episode with Carole Taylor.

    @brookeann1940 3 года назад +1

    That's so funny that this video found me. I actually went to barnes and noble with my boyfriend on a date and we were reading in the astrology section and for all of these reasons this is the first astrology book I ever bought. It is so cool!! The images throughout are super pretty. I bought it because I wanted to better understand the outer planets and what they do/symbolize and it has definitely done that for me.

    I watched the episode regarding aspects with Carole. You had said you found it in the bookstore near the kids section. My kids went to Barnes and Noble last Dec and there was a hugh display of astrology books in the childrens area for ages from babies to teens.
    I think the book was in that area to market it to teens as there has been more marketing of astrology to teens.
    I'm sure its a great book , but the bookstore was displaying this one for the younger crowd. Glad it is so well written and comprehensive.

    • @TheAstrologyPodcast
      @TheAstrologyPodcast  4 года назад

      There is a shorter version of the same book that it seems like they market to younger people titled The Secrets of Astrology: A Complete Guide to Sun Signs, Planets, Houses, and More. It is basically just the first half of the larger book by Carole, and they cut the extended coverage of different topics from the end of the book to make it shorter. Otherwise the illustrations and contents are the same as far as I can tell. I recommend the bigger book though because it is just as cheap and more comprehensive. Here is the shorter one on Barnes and Noble though: www.barnesandnoble.com/w/secrets-of-astrology-dk/1131979417?ean=9781465494849
