Part 2, Transits of Saturn & Uranus, was given on February 17 of the same year, at the same location. To my surprise, both dates were Saturdays. "Uranus as Prometheus" was previously developed by Richard Tarnas, though I do not know if the observation was original to him. Uranus is the Latinized spelling of Ouranos, which was the Greek word for sky. Wiki gives this explanation for the association of the planet with the name: Following the discovery of a sixth planet in the 18th century, the name Uranus was chosen as the logical addition to the series: for Mars (Ares in Greek) was the son of Jupiter, Jupiter (Zeus) the son of Saturn, and Saturn (Cronus) the son of Uranus. Teleology is the belief that everything has an ultimate purpose. This was one of the first of the original CPA hardbacks to be reprinted in paper. We stock the paperback version, not the hardcover.

The second, A Psychological Approach to Transits & Progressions, was given on June 8, the same year & location as the first. The first date was on a Sunday, the second on a Saturday. I was going to give you the Wiki definition of complexes, but I quickly discovered the term to be a catch-all with almost no agreed-upon meaning. Other than as a general philosophical psychological orientation, perhaps. Well, what about projection? Here is Wiki: According to Sigmund Freud, projection is a psychological defense mechanism whereby one "projects" one's own undesirable thoughts, motivations, desires, and feelings onto someone else. It is a common process that every person uses to some degree. This would make projection a form of externalization. This should be a fully conscious process for those with prominent oppositions in their chart. Which would make them excellent studies. It should be a compulsively unconscious process for those with prominent squares. It should be a minor problem, or, at worst, a silly habit, for most others. As to the nature of what is being externalized, or projected, look to the houses ruled by the planets in square or opposition. Dick Nixon is a good case. (January 9, 1913, 9:35 pm, Yorba Linda, CA.) Nixon lied. Why did he lie? Because people lied to him. How was this manifested in his chart? In his Mercury-Jupiter-Sun/Capricorn - Neptune/Cancer; Mars/Sagittarius - Pluto/Gemini oppositions. From what I've read, Nixon knew exactly who was lying to him, and why. And, conversely, he also knew exactly, and how much, he lied back. Aren't oppositions fun? Is this in Greene's book? No. But it's probably a better exposition than hers. Wiki defines Somatization disorder as a fancy word for hypochondria & just as quickly dismisses it & those who suffer from it as inconsequential. Greene uses the term to explain transits that manifest as physical ailments (pgs. 27-28) Greene's definition is superior. CPA Press, 252 pages.

The second seminar, The Eternal Triangle, was given on March 15, 1998, at the same location. Both dates were Sundays. CPA Press always publishes the date & location of the seminars, along with a tag-line, such as, part of the Summer Term of the seminar program of the Centre for Psychological Astrology (page 1). Which gives the impression that the CPA is part of an established university. Since all CPA seminars are given on Sundays (with a few on Saturdays), one gets the impression they merely rent a room for the day, with no other connection to their landlord. I was looking to see if I could find how Ms Greene, in Part 2, gets from Oedipal to plain Jane adultery. From page 137: Family triangles [ie, those involving parents & their children exclusively] have repercussions throughout life. They don't just happen in childhood. They keep repeating when they are unresolved, and they will usually find their way into adult relationships. [Here, "adult relationship" is defined to exclude one's own children.] When there is a repeating pattern of triangles in adult life, there is often an unhealed family triangle. Because it is unresolved, we recreate it, once or many times, hoping on some deep & inaccessible level that we will find a way to heal it. Oedipal defined, from page 139: Freud developed the ideal of the Oedipal triangle in a very specific context. In his view, we attach ourselves passionately to the parent of the opposite sex, and enter into a rivalry with the parent of the same sex. Depending on how the Oedipal triangle is resolved in childhood - and this includes the parents' responses as well as one's own innate temperament - our later relationships will inevitably be affected. I will leave aside Greene's implication that we are all Oedipal, I will put that down to an inability to communicate clearly, or perhaps to her love of putting people down in general. But let us think for a moment about mamma's boys. Are they more likely to cheat on their wives than other guys, and when they do, is their infidelity qualitatively different from the more ordinary messing around? I confess that I know very few married couples, and no mamma's boys at all. So I genuinely do not know. Astrologically, Mommie is represented by the 10th (or 4th), while girlfriends are 5th & wives are 7th. Astro-logic would define mamma's boys as having an interchange of rulers of 5th or 7th with 10th or 4th. (Mutual reception would be a powerful indicator.) Adultery would then happen when one or more of the relevant planets came under a stressful transit. But that's theory. Does anyone know? CPA Press, 255 pages.

	BARRIERS & BOUNDARIES: The horoscope & defences of the personality - Liz Greene, $40.00 Contents: Part 1: The psychology of defences & their astrological significators: Introduction Psychoanalytic interpretations of defences Defence mechanisms in the zodiac signs Planets & planetary aspects as defence systems An example chart More example charts & group discussion Chart sources Bibliography Part 2: Saturn & Chiron as defence mechanisms: An overview of Saturn & Chiron Saturn Chiron Example charts & group discussion About the CPA About the CPA Press Comment: We start with page 6, Oral Defences The earliest & most primal form of defence is the oral defence. Freud related this to early infancy & to that fundamental stage of experience in which everything in the baby's world is focused on feeding. The word "oral" is obvious. It is connected with mother's breast & with the life-giving nourishment that the breast provides. Freud understood the longing for the breast as a defence only if this initial life-urge becomes a mechanism of protection at a later stage of development for which it is no longer appropriate.... From page 10: Even kissing can sometimes be an oral defence, because we are back at the breast. Now that may sound dreadfully unromantic, and kissing may obviously mean many other things as well. But the sleepy eroticism of a long kiss, like the sleepy eroticism of a delicious bar of creamy chocolate, may be linked with the infant's sleepy eroticism after a really good feed.... Our mouths, from infancy onward, are erotic organs, and eroticism and oral defensiveness go together.... This spurs the audience to ask, (pg. 10) Audience: Could you explain a bit more about this link between eroticism & oral defences? Liz: Babies are very sensual. Their feelings, as well as their bodies, respond to being touched & stroked. We must differentiate between sexual & erotic feelings. An infant's eroticism is not focused on penetration, nor does it reflect passion or attraction as we experience it between two individuals adults. Freud called infants "polymorphous perverse", which means that they respond to a wide variety of pleasurable erotic stimuli as passive recipients, regardless of the identity or nature of the stimulus. Infantile eroticism is really a state of physical and emotional fusion with the source of pleasure. Fusion on the emotional level is also a highly sensual and physically pleasurable experience. This unity of physical and emotional delight is one of the most striking aspects of eroticism, which differentiates it from the adult experience of purely physical release, and also from the adult enjoyment of close emotional exchange devoid of physical contact. Suppose there is a man on trial for sexually molesting a six month old baby girl. Let's say he was caught stroking the baby's tiny genitals. In America, this is a crime for which he could be sent to prison for twenty years or more. But suppose he has a clever lawyer, and suppose the lawyer has a copy of this book. On page 230, he reads, "About the CPA Director: Liz Greene, Ph.D., D.F. Astrol. S. , Dip. Analyt. Psych." The lawyer then calls this esteemed professor to testify as an expert witness. Has she not clearly said, in her own words, words she herself published, that not only could a baby not be harmed by such stroking, but that infants which are so stroked have a uniquely pleasurable experience, one denied to adults? On the other hand, Greene has said nothing about genitals. Could it be that small babies can be molested (erotically "turned-on") merely by handling them? And is it not also clear that rocking them, cooing to them, blowing on them, are unsatisfactory ways of getting the little things to stop crying? Do babies, in Prof. Greene's opinion, only respond to touching and stroking, to eroticism? Do they respond to anything else? But Liz Greene has no Ph.D. She is a fake. A fraud. It is for precisely this reason the penalties for a falsely claiming academic achievements are so severe. I read words like those I quoted above, I want to strip Greene of every achievement (real or imagined) & run her out of town. She is worse than a nuisance. She is a danger. CPA Press, 235 pages. Some will ask why I am offering the book for sale. Frankly, I'd be happy if you gave both this book & Liz Greene a miss. There are plenty of good books, by honest authors (well, reasonably honest). I am using this brief review - I use all my reviews - to offer opinions, and, in some cases, hard analysis, for better or worse.

	APOLLO'S CHARIOT: The meaning of the astrological sun - Liz Greene, $38.00 Contents: Part 1: The meaning of the natal sun: Introduction Non-Greek solar dieties: Marduk, Buddha, Mithras Apollo An example chart More example charts When the sun doesn't shine More solar themes Bibliography Part 2: The sun, creativity & vocation: The sun & the creative process The divine child The sun at work Charts from the group The developing sun Transits to the natal sun The sun & vocation Bibliography About the CPA About the CPA Press Comment: With Greene's books I normally restrict my comments to the date & place the underlying lectures were given, but this stood out: The plan for the day I would like to start with the mythology of the Sun. Myth speaks to us on emotional & imaginative levels & extends oour minds beyond current thought structures. Myth portrays universal truths & fundamental human patterns which do not alter, and which stand outside the trends of any particular time. The human themes which myth describes are not confined to a particular way of looking at things at a particular juncture of history or in a particular kind of society. Myths are archetypal, timeless, and universal. They are free of political polemics. They arise from deep levels of the psyche that the ego cannot control, and no government legislation can eradicate their power, importance, and truth. (pg. 3) Which is to say that in this book, and perhaps all her books, Liz Greene promises to tell you the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I thought you might like to know. Part One was given on November 1, 1998, at Regents College, London. The date was a Sunday, the Moon was in Leo. Part Two was given one week later, on November 8, 1998, at Regents College, London. This was a Monday, the Moon was in Scorpio. CPA Press, 321 pages.

Neptune in synastry & the composite chart Conclusion Sources of birth data Bibliography Index About the author Comment: The tone is set from the very first words of the Introduction. They are: The longing for redemption is an ancient, strange & many-headed daimon, which dwells within even the most earthbound & prosaic of souls. Sometimes eloquent and sometimes mute, this daimon aspires toward some dimly sensed union with an all-seeing, all-loving, ineffable Other, in whose encircling embrace may be found ultimate solace for the harsh limits of mortalityand the frightening isolation of individuality which lie embeded somewhere, albeit unconscious, in every life. Even if we do not call the Other by any divine name, but instead direct our devotion and our yearning toward unrecognized surrogages such as humanity en masse, family, nature, art, love, or the State, nevertheless this quest is unmistakable and not to be confused with the other, more individualized feelings such as desire, passion, love or admiration for a particular person or thing. The hallmarks of the longing for redemption are first, that it is a longing, second, that it is compulsive and absolute, and often collides violently with individual values; and, third, that its goal is not relationship, but rather, dissolution. (pg. xi) By the late 19th century, symphonies had to be more than an hour in length. The only way to get them this long was to make the tempos slow, and start them off with gigantic introductions. Bruckner & Mahler come to mind. Things usually got more lively towards the end. Speaking of endings, Greene ends her book with this: It is not that Neptune is malevolent or malefic. Any malevolence attributed to the planet is the malevolence of human beings, blindly unleashing their yearning for a primal dream. We would all like to be redeemed, and we would all like someone else to do it for us. The client would like the astrologer to provide the redemption, and the astrologer would like to receive redemption from the practice of his or her art. We seek redemption from our therapists and counsellors, our doctors, our politicians, our families, our lovers and spouses, our children, and whatever we define as God. Neptune's greatest challenge is not whether redemption is possible, but whether we are prepared to take responsibility for our individual part in it without punishing somebody else. It may be, as Pluto leaves Scorpio and enters Sagittarius at last, that as a collective we are entering a critical period for the reevaluation of our religious and moral values. We may therefore expect obsession as well as soul-searching, and the urge to destroy as well as the urge to transform. In such a climate, not knowing what Neptune is doing within us guarantees some extremely unpleasant forms of social as well as personal upheaval in religious, moral, and legal spheres. Redemption may indeed be at hand. But if it is, on whatever level, and in whatever partial or complete form, what, we might ask ourselves, are we prepared to do to get it? And which of Neptune's many faces will we cast in the role of our redeemer, as the millennium comes to a close? (pg. 480) Weiser, 506 pages.
