Excellent Book !.......2007-09-04
Absolutely excellent book, really loved it ! Robert Pelletier is very clear, goes straight to the point giving a very complete and accurate interpretation of the aspects. You will be very happy with this book !
Never do a chart without it!!.......2002-02-05
Yet another of the few books I make certain to have within arms reach of my desk when I am working. Though only the major aspects are explained, I don't personally work enough with the minors to find that a problem. The explanations are detailed and throrough. Mr. Pelletier covers the opposition, conjunction, trine, square and sextile aspects. The only fault I found is that it isn't terribly user friendly. They aspects are divided up by aspect instead of planet and you must remember to go to the first planet instead of the later. (ie. Mars trined Uranus is under Trines>Mars to Uranus) If you ever plan to interpret a chart, this is one of those must haves.

Astrology made more accessib le.......2004-11-19
The more I read about astrology the more beautiful and complex it is. There is so much to be assimilated and interpreted: houses, planets, signs, aspects, elements, etc. Stephen Arroyo has taken the subject of karma and really explained how the energies of the planets can affect or reveal how karma is expressed. He's done this in a way that is easy to understand, and breathtaking to read. He gets right to the heart of the matter, with examples to clarify the concepts. The book added to my understanding of transits and progressions. Arroyo's discussion of Edgar Cayce's readings on astrology were illuminating. I loved his discussion of the application of astrology to counseling, and how a deep understanding of astrology helps one to be a better counselor. He also includes a bibliography of books he quoted from in the text, that can only serve as a beacon for more knowledge of astrology. After reading this book I am hungry for more! The insights in this book will make it useful for years to come.
The best astrology book of all time.......2003-02-16
If I was asked to choose between all my astrology books to pick one and only one to take with me on a desert island, I would pick Mr Arroyo's classic Astrology Karma and Transformation. In fact when I moved to the USA from England with only my backpack this book was with me. Why? It contains the most profound psychologically and spiritually insightful astrology that you can get your hands on. In fact, this book is almost a shame to read, because once you have read it, you will be hard pushed to find a better astrological text...
Arroyo here talks about the chart and particularly about the aspects and transits of Saturn and the outer planets, not with a cookbook approach but with the insight of the very special humanistic alchemy that carachterizes Arroyo's work. Drawing for Jungian concepts, psychology and spirituality Arroyo brings to life the birth chart and its players and weaves meaning into the life experience. And his writing is so beautiful, profound and yet simple, deep but easy to grasp. I love this man, such a jewel of mind and wisdom for us to enjoy...
In the book you will also find lots of stuff about the ascendant, transits, progressions, little bits and pieces of information that, even years after , you will refer to and think about and mull over in your mind. This is one of those books with that magical holographic quality, where every time you read it, it expands and you see stuff you had not seen before...
If I had to reccommend one book for you not to miss, this would be the one. Buy it. You will treasure it for life!
Yet another Arroyo groupie!.......2002-02-26
This was the first book in astrology I ever bought, amazing seeming it was over 20 years ago just after it was first published. This book has an energy about it, as obviously from the previous reviews, Stephen Arroyo has IT, he is the consummate humanistic astrologer who can give people the absolute astrological stuff that we need when we need it. Very much in the same area of astrology as Liz Green, yet in my opinion much more easily accessible, for as much as I adore Liz Greene's work, it can be quite intense and needs many readings to take in what she is saying. All of Stephen Arroyo's books are a joy to read, this one being my favourite. If you love astrology you need to do yourself a favour and buy this book.

A very good book!.......2006-10-08
I've been an astrologer for 30+ years, and have a large library on the subject. I have a particular fondness for this one because it is the only book, whether on Chiron (of which I have several) or others relevant to chart interpretation, which revealed my "life plan" adequately (which is, as one might surmise, indicated by Chiron's placement in my chart). As for Clow's references to Nibiru ("the strange planet" another reader spoke of), I thought it pertinent. Of course, I am a Zecharius Sitchin fan, but I think most astrologers believe there is at least one more planet out there (12 signs, 12 planets). Barbara Clow, to some, might be an acquired taste, but ah, the irony of astrology proponents calling others "far out".
On the Mark- Off the Mark.......2003-04-23
Clow's book was one of the first to delve in the significance of Chiron. However, it is an uneven reference piece. There are too many pages devoted to charts and the chapter on the Mythology of Chiron could be reduced to a page or two (for me, anyway). There isn't enough on the powerful transits of Chiron to the Natal chart. Her under-pinning theory rings true, but it all gets a little New Age and long winded. However, when the book hits the mark, it hits true. Astrologers need an updated and more concise edition of this landmark book.
Too Weird.......2001-10-18
This has got to be one of the all-out WEIRDEST astrology books I've ever read or bought! If you're a Uranus/Neptune-type, you'll adore this book, but some of us are a little more, ahem, grounded. Clow has all kinds of theories about Chiron that I found really hard to digest. She barely mentions the effects of Chiron transits, aspects to Chiron, Chiron in the the signs and houses; instead she goes on and on about some undiscovered planet she has given some strange name, and talks about chakras and psychic healing. Any book that uses a phrase like "star-f---er" is not going to do it for me.
Wonderful book.......1999-03-07
I really enjoyed this book! It is one of only two books that I know of that really explain Chiron in depth. Chiron is such an important aspect to astrology, and so few people (certainly very few lay people like myself) actually KNOW about it! I think the author does an excellent job on organizing the sections of the book. In particular, I like the fact that she breaks down Chiron's effect by sign and by house, as separate sections. I also like the way she describes how specific kinds of aspects (like Chiron trine Saturn, etc.) affect you, rather than just talking about "aspects" in general. Because she does have so many subsections, some of the subsections are brief and, thus, necessarily superficial. For instance, I would really like to know more about the interaction between Chiron and Pluto when they oppose each other! Also, I find that part of the focus of the author is based on the aspects of the people in her immediate surroundings, rather than the general public. On the other hand, she speaks of what she knows, and has studied Chiron in relation to a LOT of clients, so her personal knowledge is pretty broad-based. Very upbeat, and fun, book, overall.

A MICROSCOPIC SEARCH OF HIDDEN TREASURE.......2002-07-20
It is an exemplary treatise on the subject.I could not find a satisfying book on RETRGRADE PLANETS in past. None has tried to evaluate the role of retrograde planets. But the retrogression is constant astronomical phenomina. The estimation of strength of every planet is its position. In all charts like RADICAL,PROGRESSED, TRANSITING and DIURNAL still more are to be evaluated to predict.Nothing goes without taking RETROGRADE PLANETS.
Now comes a treatise on this topic.The author goes into all details minute and deals with planets in retrograde.It is a blooming Diamond well polished with a permanent shining light.The studious compilation has to be commended for its eternal utility. The style is very simple and explaining.
IT IS A MUST TO EVERY ASTROLOGER A BEGINNER AND PROFESSIONAL AS WELL.
I APPRECIATE THE AUTHOR ERIN SULLIVAN FOR HER COMMENDABLE WORK IN BRINGING OUT SUCH A TREATISE.
Astrology Down Under.......2001-09-03
Erin Sullivan's book, Retrograde Planets, was a landmark of sorts in astrology at the time it was first published in 1992. It was the first user-friendly astrology text/book to really address the issue of retrogrades in an in-depth and thought-full manner. Retrograde planets seem to turn around and go backward from our perspective on earth. During their backwards transit, they encourage us to look at the "under" or "other" side of things, thus the title of my review. We are all used to Mercury's retrograde three times a year, or we should be or at least have heard of it. Sullivan's book doesn't stop there. She considers the nature and mechanics of retrogression as it affects the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and the outer planets as well. You will not find a more thorough or READABLE explanation of this important phenomena. Sullivan also gives a good long chapter to retrograde natal planets and the secondary progression of retrograde planets or planets to retrograde. Not the most exciting writer in the world, Sullivan is nonetheless, thorough, methodical, devoted to her work and readable enough. I give this 5 stars not because the book is a real can't put downer, but rather because Sullivan is a meticulous astrologer who really knows her stuff. "Retrograde Planets" should be considered a good intermediate reference volume for the budding professional astrology.
Retrogression Fully Explained............2001-01-15
This book has an amazing amount of info, written w/ great depth by Ms. Sullivan. It is a classic & must be read cover-to-cover. This is one for the serious Astrologer/student, & will be worth your effort! Some Astrology books seem slim in content...this one is chocked full of information on a sometimes ignored factor which occurs in most charts. Put your best thinking cap on for this one! Bravo, Erin!
Thank you, Erin.......2000-09-19
This is one of my all-time favorite astrology books. It made the movements of the planets understandable to me as no other book has. It includes detailed descriptions of the retrograde cycles of *all* the planets, and gives examples of how to use them in delineation. I found the parts about progressed aspects and stations particularly useful. Transits are included as well. There are many example charts with case histories to illustrate the principles Ms. Sullivan so clearly explains. I'd choose this book as part of an "essential" astrological library.
Rx Venus.......2000-02-13
Accurately describes the experience of having a personal planet like Venus retrograde. A must read for any student of astrology!

Vol 4 of the Seminars in Psychological Astrology.......2004-06-06
I am not going to comment this book, because I have only read the introduction of this book (I am reading Luminaries). Yet for your information, this book is the Volume 4 of the Seminars in Psychological Astrology series, by Liz Greene and Howard Sasportas. In this book the two great authors talk about the Mercury, Venus and Mars. If you like the first 3 volumes, definitely you would also like this one.
