Books on the sun signs rarely emphasize self-help. What most of them say is, "This is the nature you were born with. Enjoy it, or learn to live with it." By contrast, this book tells the reader, "Here are things you can do to improve the nature you were born with." Your Sun Sign as A Spiritual Guide, however, goes far beyond merely intellectual discussion. Fresh, humorous, and full of wisdom, it provides a wealth of original insight in a field burdened by the thoughtless repetition of carelessly worked-out theories. All the ancient teachings stress the importance, to any true understanding of the astrological science, of the faculty of intuition. The convincing insights Mr. Walters offers into human nature are born of forty years of meditative practice, as well as of a lifetime of experience in counseling others. It is, above all, his intuitive grasp of his subject that gives this book its unique flavor. Enhance your spiritual development by discovering the specific lessons your sun sign brings to you. Hailed by some astrologers as a classic, Your Sun Sign as a Spiritual Guide embraces Indian as well as Western astrology. Rather than an approach to the basic sun signs that says "This is who you are," J. Donald Walters says, "this is what you can do with what you are if you want to improve your lot in life. The ultimate purpose of astrology is to help man to understand that he can develop himself inwardly, so as to filter out the harmful influences and make the best use of the beneficial ones." An excellent tool for helping you to achieve a deeper, more compassionate understanding of yourself and others. About the Author: J.
