Recommended Astrology Books
All of these books are well thumbed in my personal library. To buy online click on the title or the book jacket.

WESTERN ASTROLOGY
For an easy and intelligent book for a beginner this is my first choice.
Steven Forrest is a witty writer with a warm and sensitive style. He uses archetypes and explains the concepts of astrology with an earthy, down to earth approach. This book describes the basics - signs, planets and houses. It's so entertaining that advanced astrologers can also enjoy it. The Inner Sky by Steven Forrest

I sell a great astrology report written by Steven which would make an ideal accompaniment to this book. See Archetypes Astrology Report>

Chiron and the Healing Journey by Melanie Reinhardt.
This book is a classic of original thinking, inspiration, depth of astrological experience and careful research. It has more than stood the test of time.
