Appendices: A. Moon mansion constellation rulers B. Navamsa conversion tables C. Ayanamsa conversion tables D. Progressed dasa system calculations E. Benefic, malefic & neutral planets F. Planetary relationships Dictionary - Hindu words to English. Comment: Kevin Barrett is an Australian who has studied Vedic astrology since 1976. This book is intended for western astrologers. All the charts in the book are in the western round format, though the planetary positions in them are Lahiri ayanamsa. As a Vedic book, it's elementary. As a western book, it's pretty solid. The Dictionary in the back runs 44 pages, with several hundred brief entries, a very nice reference by itself. Barrett had previously self-published this book, which made it both expensive & hard to get. I was happy to see the Sagar edition. Sagar, 213 pages.

	Recycled & Used Books, page 1 Good books for $5.00

These are not really used books, they're mostly excess stock from one of my suppliers, and they are all several years old. Most of these are from India. Which means Indian standards of quality, which are a bit shabby by modern American standards. As we got these for a good price, we're happy to pass it along. These are, for the most part, $5.00 each. Some we have in quantity, but for some there are only a few. Expand your library, expand your horizons, take a dare. The stranger the book, the more interesting its adventure.

Please note: Books published by Taraporevala / D.B. Taraporevala Sons, are notably crude in printing & binding.

Enjoy!

	used: ASTROLOGY FOR EVERYMAN - William J. Tucker, $5.00 Sagar. 306 pages. Condition: Fair. Printed: 1971-? Probably printed in the 1990's. Tucker was an English astrologer who lived from 1896 to 1981. He was an advocate of houses drawn from the MC (most house systems, including Placidus, are drawn from the ascendant), and, judging by the lack of house delineations in this book, got very little from them. The book is notable for 144 delineations of the Sun & Moon through the signs (polarities). Printed In India.

	used: PRACTICAL ASTROLOGY: How to make it work for you in love, marriage, career & health - Jerryl L. Keane, $5.00 Tarang Paperbacks. 240 pages. Condition: good. Printed: 1989.

	used: EVERYMAN'S ASTROLOGY - Edward Lyndoe, $5.00 Tareporevala. 236 pages. Condition: Fair. Printed: 1988. Lyndoe, an English astrologer, was an advocate of Morinus houses, tables for which you will find in this book. Lyndoe was the only person who ever used them. (Morin did not use the house system which he himself devised.) Lyndoe was also an advocate of tertiary progressions (forgive me, I forget what they are) and includes helpful tables on the very last page of the book. (Decades later Rick Houck discovered tertaries.) Also in this book, a compressed ephemeris, 1900-1999. This is a book on how to construct & read a chart, along with a very nice section on tertaries. Which, trust me, you will find nowhere else. Printed In India.

	used: YOURS STARS OF DESTINY - William J. Tucker, $5.00 D.B. Taraporevala Sons. 144 pages. Condition: good. Printed: 1984. In this book the author explains a bit more of his unique house system. Which is to determine the degree on the MC. The ascendant is 90 degrees in advance of that. Which, in London, is virtually never true, so far as actual observation goes. Also in this book, all 144 possibilities of Sun & Moon, times the 12 possible ascendants, the result broken down as Height, Build, Complexion, & Colors. Mine are tall height, average build, fair hair, good complexion and blue, orange & yellow for colors. Which, except for the colors, is mostly right. (Who likes orange? And who likes all three of those on a single plate?) But then, 90 degrees from my MC is not the sign I generally accept as my ascendant. The ascendant Tucker would assign me gives me medium height (no), sturdy build (no), clear complexion (?) and blue, orange & pink as my colors (ick!) Good clear printing, nice interior paper stock, which are rare for books from this publisher. Printed In India.

	used: THE INFLUENCE OF THE ZODIAC UPON HUMAN LIFE - Eleanor Kirk, $5.00 Taraporevala. 189 pages. Condition: Fair. Printed: 1991. This is on sun-signs, grouped by element, eg, the three fire, the three air, the three earth, and finally the three water. Printed In India.
