Synopsis: In the tradition of Goddesses in Every-woman and Secrets of the Tarot, this challenging book offers a woman-centered interpretation and history of astrology that will give readers new tools for self-exploration. The Knot of Time reveals how the roots of "man's oldest science" lie in the depths of women's experience and creativity. Lindsay River and Sally Gillespie, both experienced astrologers, reclaim this lost heritage and mythology, transforming traditional interpretations of the components of the horoscope-the signs of the zodiac, the planets and the elements- into a path of self-understanding. With the aid of clear, accessible diagrams, you can begin to understand your own chart and work out your own interpretations. Far from spelling out a fixed destiny, the book helps readers to explore the choices that are open to them and to make the most of their inner resources. This book is a must for those new to astrology, for those wanting to get in touch with their intuitive side and especially for those who have found some of the concepts of traditional astrology inappropriate. The Knot of Time also offers experienced astrologers a wealth of original insights.
