Retrograde Planets: Traversing the Inner Landscape

by Erin Sullivan

"Geocentricity might well be egocentricity." The phenomenon of retrograde motion is based on our Earth-centered view of the solar system, but the movement and cycles of retrograde planets are based entirely on the apparent motion of the Sun through the zodiac. This book organizes and explains retrograde motion from a systems-viewpoint-the system of the Sun and planets-and interprets retrograde planets natally, by progression, and in transit.

Erin Sullivan has penetrated the veil of myths, mystery, and false assumptions about the geocentric phenomenon of retrograde motion for students of astrology. She has carefully outlined the system of retrograde motion and applied it to both natal horoscopes and transiting cycles. Through her research and experience with client cases, Sullivan has explored all the possible cycles within cycles that retrograde planets perform. She has interpreted those movements in a way that is mmediately apparent and useful to both novice and professional astrologer, and provides both psychological and mundane interpretations of retrograde planets.
