Book Description
Most of us will read the daily or weekly horoscopes provide by newspapers and magazines. They are viewed in the main as light entertainment. Serious readers of charts and planetary influence dismiss them as cheap fodder. The same can’t be said of character similarities, they can be rather accurate at times and deserve more credit than is currently given.

Postcolonial Astrology
Author: Alice Sparkly Kat
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1623175313
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
Tapping into the political power of magic and astrology for social, community, and personal transformation. In a cross-cultural approach to understanding astrology as a magical language, Alice Sparkly Kat unmasks the political power of astrology, showing how it can be channeled as a force for collective healing and liberation. Too often, magic and astrology are divorced from their potency and cultural contexts: co-opted by neoliberalism, used as a force of oppression, or distilled beyond recognition into applications that belie their individual and collective power. By looking at the symbolic and etymological histories of the sun, moon, Saturn, Venus, Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter, we can trace and understand the politics of magic--and challenge our own practices, interrogate our truths, and reshape our institutions to build better frameworks for communities of care. Fearless, radical, and fresh, Sparkly Kat's Postcolonial Astrology ushers in a new wave of astrology revival, refusing to apologize for its magickism and connecting its power to the spirituality and politics we need now. Intersectional, inclusive, and geared towards queer and POC communities, it uses our historical and collective constructs of the planets, sun, and moon to re-chart our subconscious history, redefine the body in the world, and assert our politics of the personal, in astrology and all things.
