Planets in Composite: Analyzing Human Relationships (The Planet Series). This item is unavailable.Planets in Composite: Analyzing Human Relationships (The Planet Series)

Robert Hand has written an important reference book that is much needed in the astrological community. Until the appearance of Planets in Composite no astrologer had written a definitive work about human relationships. Why? Perhaps because the customary technique, called synastry, was just too complicated and unreliable.

Instead, Planets in Composite details Robert Hand's development of the composite technique, which combines two individual charts into a composite third chart-- a chart of the relationship itself. This gives the astrologer a single chart to interpret, rather than two as in the synastry method.

Planets in Composite contains an explanation of the composite technique, chapters on casting and reading the horoscope, five case studies illustrating the use and validity of composite charts, plus twelve chapters of delineations. These include delineations for all of the planets in each house and every major aspect (conjunction, sextile, square, trine and opposition), comprising 374 total interpretations, all thumb-indexed for easy reference. 41 delineations of the Moon's nodes are also included.

Robert Hand is a professional astrologer with more than twenty years of experience in the field. He has practiced in New York and Boston and lives on Cape Cod. He has lectured and conducted workshops in the United States in England. He is best known for his pioneering work into new techniques of astrology, including research into the composite technique and the field of harmonics.
