Those who study this book and carry out its precepts are likely to reach a high standard of work far more quickly than those who have no such guidance. In fact, if they conscientiously and carefully study the author’s methods, they can scarcely fail to produce excellent results. If they are naturally endowed with an interest in human nature and a genuine desire to help mankind, so much the better. That is a sine qua non for all who aspire to be really good professional astrologers. Charles E.O. Carter, B.A. (London)
After many years of teaching astrology, first to private pupils and then to classes, it has become increasingly obvious that the student is hampered in his early days by not being able to see examples of work set out and arranged by a working astrologer. It is hoped that this book will help to fill the need especially for those abroad, unable to attend lectures. Other astrologers may not agree with the interpretations as given but even this case, clarification of ideas may result through the presentation of these examples for discussion. Grateful acknowledgment is now made, firstly to those who have so freely given permission for their personal letters and chart-interpretaations to be published; secondly to those who have helped to correct the book; Miss Jacinthe Buddicom, who has acted as checker of signigicators and Mr. J.M.Filbey, who calculated the charts.
