A LANDMARK TEXT FOR THE PROFESSIONAL One of the keys to a vital, comprehensive astrology is the art of synthesis, the capacity to take the parts of our knowledge and combine them into a coherent whole. The parts may be contradictory (the relationship between Mars and Saturn, for example), but synthesis manages the unification of opposites, Noel Tyl demonstrates how astrological measurements -- through creative synthesis in the horoscope and in life -- are used effectively to counsel individuals. Discussion of complex topics is grounded in concrete examples and extraordinary in-depth analysis of 122 horoscopes of celebrities, historical figures, and private clients.
