Finding the Person in the Horoscope

Article number 10219686

Written by a clinical psychologist, this work serves as a foundational exploration of psychological astrology, introducing the concept of the "Alphabet of Astrology" to bridge the gap between traditional symbolism and modern behavioral science. The author shifts the interpretive focus away from deterministic event-prediction toward an analysis of the twelve centers of consciousness, framing the horoscope as a map of an individual’s internal motivations, psychological drives, and potential for personal growth. By organizing astrological components into a systematic framework of signs, houses, and planets, the text provides a methodology for identifying the underlying character structure and mental patterns of the person behind the natal chart. Originally published by a specialized astrological organization in the early 1970s, it represents a significant contribution to the mid-century movement that integrated humanistic psychology with esoteric tradition.
