Stephen Arroyo (born October 6, 1946 in Kansas City, Missouri) is an American author and astrologer.[1]
Arroyo has written seven books on psychologically oriented astrology which outline his theory that the individual’s experience of the Solar System’s impacts on their personal energy field, both psychological and physical. His works recast astrological concepts in psychological terms, and reject what he perceives as the fatalism and negativity of old-fashioned astrology. His books have now been translated into 20 languages.
What a great book if this is what you’re looking for! Of course, being published in 1984, some comments are a little dated. But that’s no reason to take a star off the rating. All in all, this was an interesting read (especially about the plight of working astrologers in the 1980s) and somewhat inspiring for the current era. The authors greatest point, as valid then as now, is the importance of astrologers learning counseling and communication skills. He stresses that astrologers communicating in the astrological language might lose the attention of people, and astrology as a field can’t move forward like that. He’s also gone into the lack of GOOD astrological literature but I feel like since 1984, that is definitely something that has changed.
