Psychology of the Planets

Psychology of the Planets by Francoise Gauquelin. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780917086328.

The most significant astrological findings of the century have been summarized in this book. Psychologist/ statistician Francoise Gauquelin surveys traditional and contemporary interpretations of planetary influences. Then, applying her rigorous scientific methods, she evaluated how they stand up against actual published biographical descriptions of eminent personalities. Some of the questions she addresses include: What is the real nature of Jupiter; Are traditional astrological trait words verified by current research?; Were ancient astrologers more accurate than modern ones?; What is the practical significance of the Meridian and Horizon axes?; How do these new findings relate to contemporary astrological practice? Included is a detailed list of character traits which have been objectively correlated with each planet. For the first time, astrologers have the use of a behavioral description for each planet derived entirely from observational methods.
