Samenvatting	This wide-ranging book for the curious thinker ? not just astrology buffs ? makes a case for a return to the ancient sidereal zodiac. It was developed in Babylonia and inherited by India while the Greeks failed to understand the relation between the precession of the equinoxes (though already known to them) and the Eastern zodiac. The author, an academic, attempts to verify the truth claims of astrology to the satisfaction of a modern rational mind. That the sidereal zodiac has deigned to respond to this investigator? s pilot studies apparently shows both that the questions posed must be the right ones, and also that you cannot flog a dead horse and expect a response ? as earlier investigators of the tropical zodiac repeatedly have. Western man has falsely believed himself to be a Darwini... (Lees verder)an jungle animal, but the real humanity is altogether Another Kind. The zodiac hints of challenges faced by the journeying soul, but Western civilization has been hellbent on denying the true dignity of Man. Those in the habit of profiting on people weaker than themselves will not like the discoveries here presented. Theoretical, speculative as well as historical, the book even attempts to uncover a forgotten tradition about the evil star Algol, presumed to be a part of the astrological studies conducted by the original Palestinian Christians while still calling themselves the Children of Light. There? s no denying some portions are complex; one may return to the contents several times and pick up new food for thought not noticed before. But the alert reader will be fascinated to find out how the zodiac appears to encode an ancient ''psycho-cosmology'' known from Roman philosopher Plotinus and Hinduism alike. Contrasting with the dense sample horoscope pointers, lighter strokes are used in presenting certain less well understood astrological symbols. Did you know that the secret to the Water Bearer may not primarily be the bearer but the utensil he holds? No matter one? s background, the reader will emerge with new and surprising insights into the zodiac, this old manual for the way things are or should be. The book contains a condensed account of the cosmology around year 1, closely related to the Cardinal Vices and Virtues ? themes running like a thread throughout the book. These chapters also require keeping one? s wits to hand, but for good measure some light-hearted (though not frivolous) studies are also thrown in the pot. Like a fun but also slightly sad analysis of a number of so-called glamour models, their horoscopes and how these account for the way the models describe their work publicly. Not for many hundred years have the zodiac signs rung so true! There is also a chapter on the Nobel Prize laureates in literature that segues into one on Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford and convincingly shown by competent researchers to be the most likely author behind thenom de plume Shakespeare. This may be also the first book ever that seriously tries to show crummy political views to be a function of poor birth omens. This author subscribes to Plato? s view that only high-caliber people, evolved above the animal instincts like greed and lust should be allowed to helm a country. It will become more and more obvious as you read this one-of-a-kind book that there really is only one ideology for the world-to-come (Age of Aquarius) that is in harmony with thesanatana dharma, the eternal and moral world-order. This unusual book has been composed with at least three types of reader in mind. It contains enough orientation for an astrological novice while simultaneously catering to the needs of the more advanced student. It also addresses the skeptic, while all the while in fact being an apologetic for? philosophic idealism! Is it really possible to squeeze all this into five-hundred pages? Read the book and judge for yourself. You? ll be the richer for it.
