“ People love to proclaim that something is “ New .” It ' s an advertising cliche . Every product is “ New and Improved ,” with superficial features added in a weak attempt to validate the claim . Yet “ Astrology : The New Generation ” actually delivers on this promise . It ' s fresh , beautifully executed and possessed of inspiring range .
Composed of essays from 14 different astrologers , the book is a delightful gumbo of different perspectives and topics . What I found remarkable was that within every category ( mundane , natal , traditional , etc ), the essays were all extraordinarily competent . This is not a book of “ young people finding their footing ” - the essays here are all the product of years of blood , sweat , tears and insight .
Due to my practice and proclivities , I was immediately drawn to the essays on mundane and traditional astrology , which I found highly gratifying . Yet as I explored essays outside of my defined areas of interest , I was pleasantly surprised to find myself learning from perspectives I do not usually consider .
As a full time astrologer myself , I often get the “ I ' ve heard this all before ” feeling when I crack open a new astrology book . Not this time . Yet not only does the material feel fresh to a veteran such as myself , I also felt that I could suggest many of these essays to a student of astrology without worrying that it would go over their head . The book not only touches on a wide range of topics , it also speaks on a variety of levels . A rare and difficult feat , with kudos due to the editors , as well as the writers .
In summation , I am confident in heartily recommending “ Astrology : The Next Generation ” to both grizzled astrology buffs and green students of the arte . Bravo !” — Austin Coppock
