The first would be Synthesis & Counseling in Astrology: The Professional Manual by her mentor and friend Noel Tyl. This tome would offer Kathy tons of reading material!

Song “Wake Up” used with permission by The E-Block Band. ***** Episode timestamps (conversation recorded June 2024): 00:31 – Fernanda Paiva is an HSP (highly sensitive person), teacher, and practicing astrologer. She holds a certificate from the London School of Astrology, a master’s degree in cultural astronomy and astrology from the University of Wales Trinity Saint David, and a bachelor’s degree in history. Fernanda has been published by Flare UK, the AA Journal, and at the Astrodienst website, amongst others. Fernanda is originally from Brazil but has lived in the United Kingdom for over 16 years. 01:18 – Astrology captured Fernanda’s heart in the early 1990s via the horoscope magazines in Brazil! The first book she read was Astrology for Lovers by Liz Greene. 02:57 – If Fernanda could bring only three books to a deserted island, what would she bring? The first would be Moment of Astrology: Origins in Divination by Geoffrey Cornelius, because there’s always something new to grasp! 07:14 – Sneaking in two books, one author! Fernanda’s second choice would be… Liz Greene’s whole collection, lol! The way Greene writes always offers Fernanda a new window to look through. With that in mind, she’d narrow it down to two of her favorites by Greene: The Horoscope in Manifestation: Psychology and Prediction and Barriers and Boundaries: The Horoscope and the Defences of the Personality. There’s a bonus book tossed in for good measure, too: The Astrologer, the Counsellor and the Priest: Two Seminars on Astrological Counselling by Juliet Sharman-Burke and Liz Greene. 12:28 – Interlude: Join CAELi and snag yourself a Saturn stress-relief ball. (Yes, you read that right!) 13:14 – The third title that Fernanda would bring is Cosmos and Psyche: Intimations of a New World View by Richard Tarnas. Tarnas’s comprehensive research would keep Fernanda inspired! 19:47 – For beginners, Fernanda recommends: The Contemporary Astrologer’s Handbook: An In-Depth Guide to Interpreting Your Horoscope by Sue Tompkins, Chart Interpretation Handbook: Guidelines for Understanding the Essentials of the Birth Chart by Stephen Arroyo, The Twelve Houses: Exploring the Houses of the Horoscope by Howard Sasportas, Getting to the Heart of Your Chart: Playing Astrological Detective by Frank Clifford, and Predictive Astrology: The Eagle and the Lark by Bernadette Brady. 27:02 – Find Fernanda at her website: https://www.fernandapaiva.co.

    Astrologer Alberto Forero joins host Jenn Zahrt from San Francisco, California to offer a myriad of astrology texts, bolstered by his Gemini sense of curiosity! In this comprehensive chat, Alberto and Jenn cover some wonderful territory, including: fixed stars and constellations; bringing astronomy into astrology; the Uranus/North Node conjunction in Taurus; symbolism and metaphors; when astrology went underground; balancing temperament; physiognomy and cultural biases; astro charts with thumbprint patterns; Ceres, Pallas, Juno, and Vesta; sensitive degrees; extending ephemerides; a hypothetical map of astro migration and data visualization; fantasteroids; creating degree symbols; and geomancy.

Song “Wake Up” used with permission by The E-Block Band. ***** Episode timestamps (conversation recorded June 2024): 00:31 – Alberto Forero has studied and practiced astrology since 2017, practicing both traditional and modern techniques in bringing ancient wisdom to clients. His interest in astrology emerged from several threads: fascination with symbolism, psychology, and alchemy. Alberto serves as President of the San Francisco Astrological Society and is the co-host of the YouTube astrology game show “Astrology Deathmatch.” 00:57 – Alberto found astrology when a work colleague did a reading for him, and he got the astro-bug! His very first book was Parker's Astrology (New Edition): The Definitive Guide to Using Astrology in Every Aspect of Your Life Paperback by Julia and Derek Parker. 04:17 – If Alberto could pack only three books on a long trip, what would he bring? The first one would be the voluminous Secrets of the Ancient Skies, Vol. 1 and 2 by Diana K. Rosenberg. This text offers a massive amount of knowledge, and the historical info is vast. It also offers good info on fixed stars and constellations. 07:35 – Alberto’s second choice is The Penguin Dictionary of Symbols by Jean Chevalier and Alain Gheerbrant, and translated by John Buchanan-Brown. This one is like popcorn for your mind, and it helps Alberto with the symbolic understanding of reality! 13:28 – The third title that Alberto would bring is the wonderful Temperament: Astrology's Forgotten Key by Dorian Gieseler Greenbaum, because it helps get a good baseline sense of a person. 16:39 – Interlude: Join CAELi and snag yourself a Saturn stress-relief ball. (Yes, you read that right!) 17:25 – Alberto also shared some Gemini bonus books! A hat tip goes to: Your Destiny in Thumb: Indian System of Thumb Reading by R. G. Ra; Ephemerides of the Asteroids: Ceres, Pallas, Juno, Vesta, 1900-2000 by Eleanor Bach; the controversial Rules for Planetary Pictures (Uranian System): Adapted from the Teachings of Alfred Witte by Hans Niggemann; Astrology and the Modern Psyche by Dane Rudhyar; and Astrolabium Planum by Johann Engel. And Jenn gave a shout-out to A Graphic Ephemeris of Sensitive Degrees also by Eleanor Bach! 26:32 – Wondering what fantasteroids are? Learn about them here! 30:25 – For beginners, Alberto recommends The Geomancer's Handbook: Divination and Magic by John Michael Greer, and Astrology: Using the Wisdom of the Stars in Your Everyday Life by Carole Taylor. 35:55 – Find Alberto at his website: https://www.translationoflight.org/. And he’s also the curator of @MuseumAstro on Twitter/X (the visual history of astrology). 36:27 – Thanks for listening to Within Orb!
