It doesn’t take very long for someone who knows even a little bit about astrology to realize that a combination of the planet Uranus and the sign Taurus is the perfect picture of the irresistible force meeting the immovable object. This month’s entry of Uranus into that sign signals changes everywhere, so what it means to the world and to you personally is explained in “Revolutionize Your Life,” on page 32. If you happen to have a personal birth chart (an easy thing to get these days), it’s likely that unless you’ve sat down with an astrologer to understand what it means you may not fully understand it. “Solving the Astrological Puzzle” on page 38 won’t make you an astrologer, but it will help you learn how all those pieces…

I am on hiatus, so here is a previous review of a perennial classic that is still in print, and that many readers may have missed. Next month, we will be reviewing a book that is possibly a “new classic,” Hellenistic Astrology: The Study of Fate and Fortune, by Chris Brennan. It is a big, comprehensive book about a type of astrology that “is the source of many of the modern traditions of astrology.” Don’t miss it. The Book of World Horoscopes, by Nicholas Campion. The Wessex Astrologer Ltd, 4a Woodside Road, Bournemouth, BH5 2AZ. wessexastrologer.com. 685 pages, paper, $55.00.

According to the principles of numerology, the year 2018 reduces to 2 (2+0+1+8=11=2), a number that lends itself to reflecting on the goals that you have set for yourself, and how you want to go about making them happen. Even if you have been wildly successful, life is about opening yourself up to new challenges and moving in new directions. Surround yourself with people who believe in you so that you can manifest your hopes and dreams. We add the number for the current year to the month number (January is 1, December is 1+2=3) to your own birthday number (1st=1, 31st=3+1=4) to calculate your vibration for the month. FOR THOSE BORN ON THE 1st, 10th, 19th, and 28th of any month Mars-8 vibrations encourage you to get out in…
