*1am on Pelion*
Patroclus: *giggling* Youβre my moon.
Achilles: *also giggling* And youβre my star.
Chiron: *tiredly* and youβre both getting on my nerves, go to bed!
ABOUT ME
Hello! Iβm Skylar if youβre new to my page and I got my diploma in astrology from Kepler College (the #1 best astrology school in the world)
Iβve been studying astrology for over a decade now as well and these are the books I recommend
β BEGINNER BOOKS β
The Only Astrology Book Youβll Ever Need by Joanna Woolfolk
Goes over all the basic information for beginners and has interpretations written in as well. In the beginning of the book it focuses a lot on Sun Signs but gives more insight on other placements later in the book donβt worry
Astrology for the Soul by Jan Spiller
Another great book for beginners. I like the interpretations
The Inner Sky by Steven Forrest
Written by a very renowned astrologer. He goes over signs, aspects, etc and breaks them all down really well
You were born for this by Chani Nicholas
I love how this book goes over how to use astrology in your daily life and isnβt just cookie cutter definitions of placements like many other books. Itβs also interactive and you can write in some pages which is always fun. Itβs one of my favorite books for beginners
Aspects in astrology by Sue Tompkins
This is a great book for people curious about what each aspect means and how they can manifest into your life
β INTERMEDIATE BOOKS β
Predictive Astrology by Michele Adler
This book is definitely worth the price. It gives lots of information on techniques you can use to make predictions in astrology. Itβs based on Western Astrology
The Art of Predictive Astrology by Carol Rushmam
Another great predictive astro book that talks about how to make predictions based on transits in your chart
Medical Astrology by Judith Hill
This is a great book with information on body part astrology and medical information. Although I do want to note when reading this do not be afraid if you share one of the transits that the public figures mentioned had during their health issues arising as astrology is a polarity. Meaning you can take on positive traits rather than the challenging ones often
β ADVANCED BOOKS β
Asteroid Goddesses by Demetra George
Goes over all the major asteroids in astrology. This can help you a lot if youβre interested in learning basic information on asteroids
Planets in Composite by Robert Hand
There are not many books out there on Composite compatibility so out of all of them this is my favorite even though itβs very basic itβs still a good read if youβre learning about Composite charts
The Psychology of Astrocartography by Jim Lewis
This is the best book about astrocartography Iβve found so far and very informative. The only bad thing I have to say about this book is that the print is really small. Itβs amazing other than that though
β OLD AGE ASTRO BOOKS β
Mastering Traditional Astrology by Mychal A. Brian
If youβre more interested in old age astrology then this is an amazing read. You can purchase it on Amazon
Astrology of the Tree by David Frawley
This is great for beginners in vedic astrology and goes over all the basics. Really anything by David Frolly is great if you want to learn about vedic
The Nakshatras; the Lunar Mansions of Vedic Astrology by Dennis Harness
Itβs a short read and goes over all the meanings of all the nakshatras
Light on Relationships by Hart De
A very comprehensive read that goes over synastry in Indian astrology. It gives lots of interesting techniques that can give insight on future marriages as well
Mayan Calender Astrology by Kenneth Johnson
This is extremely hard to comprehend so donβt purchase if youβre new to astrology. Even I had to read it a few times to fully get it. It discusses the astrology that the egyptians wrote in their hieroglyphics
β BOOKS I STUDIED FOR MY DIPLOMA β [these arenβt all of them just some of my faves]
Sky and Psyche; the relationship between cosmos and consciousness by Nicholas Campion and Patrick Curry
This is an extremely underrated book and one of my favorites by far. This book goes over not just meanings of the planets, houses, synastry aspects, etc but also why the planets manifest in certain ways
The planetarization of consciousness by Dane Rudhyar
This one isnβt a basic overview like the other books Iβve mentioned itβs more psychological type astrology which I found really interesting
History of western astrology volume 1 & 2 by Nicholas Campion
This goes over how astrology has been used throughout history and why it was used in the past
β OTHER ASTRO BOOKS β
Moonology by Yasmin Boland
This is a manifestation astrology book. It gives an amazing story about the authors life before using astrology and manifestation and how it impacted them. Great for learning how to manifest using the moon cycles and astrology
The Handbook of Chinese Horoscopes by Theodora Lau and Laura Lau
My favorite Chinese astrology book. There isnβt many good ones out there
Birth Time Rectification by Paul Manley
There are some things I wouldβve added to this book that werenβt mentioned but other than that itβs pretty good in helping find the right birth times using vedic astrology

Look is no one else gonna make a big deal about the fact that in the middle of battle Achillesβ horses stopped in their tracks and started crying over the death of Patroclus? And refused to move despite Automedon begging them and whipping them to try to get them off the field until they were literally compelled to move by Zeus himself?? Because I canβt stop thinking about it.
Ares: PHOBOS, DEIMOS, STOP TRYING TO ROAST YOUR SANDWICHES VIA THE FIRE BREATHING HORSES. I TOLD YOU TO EAT BEFORE BATTLE OR NOT AT ALL.
Greek mythology from A to Z:
[H] - Hades (αΌΞδηΟ) is the god of the Underworld and King of the Dead, spirits, the dark arts, darkness.
Ajax And Cassandra by Solomon Joseph Solomon, 1886.
*Ares showing younger Phobos and Deimos his weapon collection*
Ares: This is Dorothea, this is Lydia, and this one is Anastasia
Young Deimos: Are any of them boys, or are they all girls?
Ares: Girls? These are women
Charonβs beauty sleep gets interrupted by the mailman
Achilles: any cute things to call your partner?
Agamemnon: sugar
Menelaus: honey
Diomedes: flour
Odysseus: egg
Nestor: 1/2lb butter
Antilochus: stir
Briseis: pour into a pan
Patroclus: preheat oven to 350 degrees
Ares and Aphrodite texting:
Aphrodite: Good night xxx!
Ares: Good night.
Aphrodite: It would be better if you put x's at the end of the sentences, xxx!
Ares: Ok?
Ares: Good night Calliope, Otrera, Althea, Terpsichore!
Norse mythology from A to Z:
[E] - Eostre, according to the stories, is a goddess associated with flowers and springtime.
Eostre first makes her appearance in literature about thirteen hundred years ago in the Venerable Bedeβs Temporum Ratione. Bede tells us that April is known as Eostremonath, and is named for a goddess that the Anglo-Saxons honored in the spring.
Interestingly, Eostre doesnβt appear anywhere in Germanic mythology, and despite assertions that she might be a Norse deity, she doesnβt show up in the poetic or prose Eddas either. However, she could certainly have belonged to some tribal group in the Germanic areas, and her stories may have just been passed along through oral tradition.
