Review: Highly recommended, best for intermediate astrologers - I have scores of astrology books and no fewer than five dedicated solely to Solar Returns. This one is the first astrology book that I enjoyed so much I didn't want it to end! This is not merely an astrology cookbook -- a simple listing of "if your Sun falls in this house, you will experience X & Y this year." Instead, it's a nuts and bolts examination of the technique of Solar Returns as used by different astrologers, with delineations of numerous charts to illustrate these techniques. It's chock full of tips and covers numerous subjects, from how to cast a SR when the birth time is unknown, to using firdaria, finding Emerson's Point of Death, using parans and antiscia/contra-antiscia, a discussion of whether to precess or not, progressing the SR, and more. It also gives a good overview of modern writers on the subject, from Mary Fortier Shea to Ray Merriman to James Eshelman. And finally, the author goes in-depth into the techniques of Volguine and Morin, including Morin's 31 aphorisms for judging Solar Returns. (I have Volguine's book, and while it's valuable, it's not nearly as well-written as this one. Part of that, though, could be due to the translation.) The author does include the requisite keywords for rising signs and there is a cookbook chapter on aspects, which -- while not as extensive as what one finds in so many other books -- still offers just enough information to make your Solar Return tool belt complete. I found the writing clear, concise and easy to understand, and the numerous chart delineations fascinating and thorough. This may not be the best choice for a complete novice (Ray Merriman's book is probably better for beginners), but for those who are ready to sink their teeth into something more substantial, this book is highly recommended.
Review: New favorite author & book! - This treasure chest of knowledge blew me out of the water! Couldn't help but love Dr. Louis and his writing style. Definitely going to buy all his books now. His ability to weave his professionalism, morals, ethics.. into a cohesive book that honors the traditional & sacred elements of the craft, delineating them through solid foundation and thorough examples - truly chefs kiss. I went through a lot of reviews searching for the right SR book... Glad I listened. This has greatly expanded my understanding of SR charts and even my practice. Thanks Dr. Louis for this piece of work!
