Light on Relationships

Some are born under a star, Some are born seeing stars.Building on some of the best principles from both Eastern and Western astrological traditions, authors Hart de Fouw and Robert E. Svoboda present a synthesized approach to horoscope compatibility analysis, developed over years of experimentation. This approach blends principles of analysis familiar to those who have studied Indian astrology with lesser-known techniques culled from the classic texts and oral traditions of Jyotisha. Their technique bridges the chasm between Western horoscope comparison and the culture-specific traditions of Indian astrology.De Fouw and Svoboda provide sample charts to illustrate the techniques they use; they examine compatibility issues, and look at the strength or potential of a relationship. The authors maintain that your chart outlines your fate only in that it reflects your traits and ideals -- karmas dictated by past actions and conditioning -- which can be mediated by exercising free will. Chart analysis then becomes a useful tool for self-awareness when examining a relationship: what strengths complement each other and what weaknesses will require conscious work.A nodding acquaintance with the principles presented in Light on Relationships will make it easier for you to understand the Indian relationship paradigm; a thorough study of the techniques and examples can provide you with valuable tools for evaluating all types of human relationships. This is a most valuable book for contemporary students of Jyotisha and for all astrologers who want to work with relationship potential.
