Bøker av Michael Munkasey

Keywords are essential for translating the meaning behind astrological symbols into everyday language. This book gives the best collection of keywords for the astrological Signs of the Zodiac found anywhere. Here you will find in-depth collections of the vocabulary needed to translate astrological symbols into the language of life. When seeking to learn and expand communication skills a Dictionary and a Thesaurus are essential. This book is both a Dictionary and a Thesaurus for the Signs of the Zodiac. Michael Munkasey has gone through many thousands of common American English words, selected those that best describe a particular Astrological Sign, and then arranged those words in an easy to use way. A common failing for people exposed to Astrology is to learn just a few basic meanings for an astrological symbol. A beginning student may feel comfortable with four or five words (keywords) associated with an astrological symbol - say the sign of Virgo. Using those four or five words and training the mind to be flexible, a student can give a passable interpretation for a meaning of Virgo. But, what if the student can draw from not just four or five Virgo words, but eight or ten? Access to an increased vocabulary allows richness and depth. How about then fifteen or sixteen words for Virgo to draw from? The ability to convey meaning increases with a good knowledge of keywords. This book offers a thorough keyword source for each of the Signs of the Zodiac. Use this book to expand your astrological vocabulary. Use this book as a reference for where particular words belong when describing a Sign of the Zodiac.

Since the 1st edition of this book was published in 1991, it has been a widely used reference book for many astrologers and their students who have recognized the value and importance in horoscope interpretation of the midpoints--the halfway point between any two planets or a planet and a highly significant point such as Midheaven, Ascendant or the north or south Node of the Moon. The format of this edition is very similar to the first edition, but you will find that the author has updated the interpretive text, so do read it carefully...and if you have not used midpoints routinely before, you will soon realize how significant they can be in chart interpretation! Following are a few comments from well-known astrologers familiar with the first edition and midpoint techniques.

House Keywords and More... Keywords are crucial to accurate chart interpretation. They are how an astrologer can translate the astrological symbols into everyday lanauge. As an example, the fifth house represents children, creativity, romance, and sex. Michael Munkasey compiled this extensive, 400-page book on house keywords during decades of astrological practice. Keywords are listed by individual house, in alphabetic order, and by house category. Introductory material explains how to use keywords and astrological grammar, how to translate between astrology and English, the role of quandrants and hemispheres, and how to select a house system. Keywords are presented in many categories: horary, electional, things, places, psychological qualities, occupations, family members, mundane ideas, body parts, afflictions, diseases, colors, gems, minerals, animals, mythical figures, parts of an organization, parts of a ship, industry categories, health and fitness, parts of a house, and parts of an automobile. All of these make it easy to find the optimum keywords for chart intepretation.
