James answers every question an enquiring student could ask, while giving knowledge-hungry readers the sense they are in the room at every moment. Students report that they have been able to make the leap from hobbyist to professional with this book.Writing fifteen years after his groundbreaking book Ancient Hindu Astrology for the Modern Western Astrologer, the author contrasts what he has gleaned during decades of practice compared to textbook teachings and accepted wisdom. An experience-first astrologer who accepts no astrological technique blindly, the author has tested everything for himself. Techniques that work powerfully are distinguished from those that are mediocre, inconsistent, or unreliable.Although designed for intermediate and advanced students, beginners who study the Introductory Appendix can easily follow along, saving years of frustration and confusion. Over 20 horoscope and varga chart examples are included.Invaluable for all students are the numerous lists demonstrating how to prioritize the myriad aspects of analysis that challenge every Hindu astrologer. Originally published in 2001, this text has been updated and revised.
