The Astrology of Personality - Dane Rudhyar - Bog

The Astrology of Personality is a seminal work by Dane Rudhyar, published in 1936, that presents a revolutionary approach to astrology. The book is a reformulation of astrological concepts and ideals in terms of contemporary psychology and philosophy. Rudhyar argues that astrology is not a mere superstition or a deterministic system, but a tool for self-understanding and personal growth. He proposes a new way of interpreting astrological charts, based on the idea that each individual has a unique personality structure that can be revealed through the study of planetary positions and aspects. Rudhyar's approach is deeply rooted in the Jungian tradition of psychology, and he draws extensively from Jung's theories of archetypes and the collective unconscious. He also incorporates the ideas of philosophers such as Nietzsche, Bergson, and Whitehead, to develop a holistic and dynamic view of the human psyche. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of astrology and its historical development. The second part introduces Rudhyar's new approach to astrology, focusing on the concept of the ""birth chart"" and the different layers of personality that it reveals. The third part explores the practical applications of astrology in various areas of life, such as education, career, and relationships. The Astrology of Personality is a groundbreaking work that has influenced generations of astrologers and psychologists. It is a must-read for anyone interested in astrology, psychology, or personal growth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
