Astrology is one of the oldest sciences known to man. Its fascination has endured for well over 5000 years, and it still has much to teach us today. Our planet Earth is only one tiny part of the cosmos, a vital link in a living system of energy which pervades the universe. The basic assumption of astrology is founded in the idea that every element of the cosmos influences the whole, and the structure which we know as the zodaic has particularly strong relevance to our Earth. In this section we have examined in detail these spheres of influence, providing a clear-cut account of how we are affected by the position and movement of the planets. As well as being an exiciting source of information for the curious reader, SUNSIGNS is also a highly practical reference guide for the new student of astrology. Anyone who wishes to know how to cast a horoscope is given full instructions, step by step. One of the most intriguing aspects of the lore of astrology is the world of correspondences-each sign of the zodiac has its own set of references, animals, plants, special stones, individual characteristics and talents. This section not only contains beautiful illustrations of the correspondences, but also dramatic new designs for the zodiac signs.
