The main focus of this book is what the author calls a “Lunar Gestation Cycle”. Basically it groups a New Moon at 10 degrees of Cancer with the next First Quarter Moon that occurs close to 10 degrees of Cancer. It follows it with the next Full and Last Quarter Moons that also occur near the 10 Degree Cancer mark. This can play out over a 2 or 3 or 4 years. It is an interesting hypothesis and I would have to do some major research to see how valid it is.
The book also contained some interesting charts and timing for Hillary Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Jeffery Dahmer among others.
Some excerpts that I liked:
“A South Node Eclipse brings public exposure. Information tends to be uncovered and the facts come out into the open. If you are not ready to have your activities in public view, then don’t talk about them. On the other hand, if you do want to get noticed, find a way to put your talents or ideas out in the open by advertising, writing a book, singing in public or branching out your business. The high visibility quality with this eclipse could give needed publicity.” – pg. 96
“An eclipse to Mercury or the house it rules can bring much excitement and extremely big changes in your life. Mercury’s rulership of neighborhoods often activates changes of a major relocation. Leaving home for the first time also falls into the realm of an eclipse to Mercury. I have seen many examples of people making moves across the country or to another country entirely. …Many people reported losing their mother with a Solar or lunar Eclipse to their Mercury. Two examples: Britain’s Prince William lost his mother the day the Solar Eclipse at 8* Virgo squared his 8* Gemini Mercury. The same eclipse was conjunct Prince Harry’s 5* Virgo Mercury.
…With an eclipse to Mercury, significant introductions can later bring about a change in relationship activity. Mercury’s primary role as the ruler of information and communication can initiate important written material, instigate gossip, or publish your name in headlines. Ruminating and worrying about important decisions is common, as is a heavy schedule with many appointments and a great deal of paper shuffling.” – pg. 103
“Find at least three examples within each chart type to support your statement. When looking for validation of your theory, find three configurations of:
Transits o the natal chart
Progressed chart as a stand-alone
Solar Arc chart to natal
Transits to the progressed charts
Groups of solar return charts surrounding the matter” – pg.122
