The Planetary Calendar Astrology Companion

Astrology is enjoying exponential growth thanks to computers, online forecasts and analysis. But that sophisticated knowledge often bypasses the fundamental concepts that the celestial art is based on. This book provides the enthusiast with the key knowledge that opens the doors to a deeper understanding.

To address that gap this book begins with an illustrated, simplified explanation of Astrology’s main parts; Planets, Signs, Houses and Aspects, in an easy to remember symbolic form. It includes a unique perspective on the often-misunderstood Planetary Rulers and their Table of Dignities, (the Celestial Relationships, a primary tool in Chart Interpretation. Next, because this was conceived as a companion to the proactive Planetary Calendar, it includes a three-chapter explanation of the Calendrical Healing System, which was created for the Calendar’s 72nd edition. This application of Lunar Astrology and the Twelve Terrestrial Houses is supplemented by a pair of chapters on GeoMagical Design (Horizon Charts and Sun Sign Spaces). The book closes by drawing insightful, entertaining correlations between the Planets and the world’s most popular wine grapes, because one does

Drs. Ralph & Lahni DeAmicis both began practicing Astrology professionally in the 1970's, and they expect to get the hang of this stargazing thing pretty soon. They met in the Physics lab at Princeton University at the first presentation of the Project Hindsight research in 1994. This also introduced them to the wonderful circle of Astrologers connected with the Princeton Astrological Society and the National Council for Geocosmic Research (NCGR) in New York City. These events had a profound influence on their future professional work They became the Astrologers for the Planetary Calendar in 2002, when Lahni's daughter, Carole, purchased the project after the passing of the founder. Since they had written Astrology columns for magazines, they convinced Carole to let them include a forecast. But she insisted that rather than a Sun Sign column, it be a 'global' forecast that looked at the influence of the ongoing Transits, which turned out to be even more helpful and it's continued that way ever since. All Astrologers bring their personal interests to the field, and for them it was natural healing and environmental design. As Master Herbalists and Naturopathic Physicians they wrote 'The 10 Minute Herbalist' book series. They are also well-known speakers and consultants on Feng Shui and Ergonomic Design, creating their 'Feng Shui and the Tango' trilogy and other books on Ergo Dynamics. This expertise shows up in the Calendar's healing system, Twelve Terrestrial Houses and Health Hints. In 2005 their 'little tribe' relocated from Philadelphia to Sonoma and Napa California, the gorgeous, sunny wine country at the north end of the San Francisco Bay. The initial reason was for a book project about the winery architecture for their design series. That project morphed into a tour book that has become its own series. After speaking internationally for many years on their various topics, the two felt very much at home and did not want to leave. But there was still a demand for their presentations, so they began producing television programs at Napa Valley Television. Segments of their shows, 'Planetary Calendar TV', and 'Astrologers Chatting Over Wine', make up a big part of the online resources provided for Calendar users. They spend their time improving the Calendar, writing books and producing TV shows, all of which can be found at www.SpaceAndTime.com.
