Shadow Astrology

By Kieran Brannan

Even those who don’t really believe in Astrology often read their Stars in newspapers and magazines when they think no-one is watching. It’s because we're fascinated with ourselves, fascinated with the magic that makes us who we are!

This is as it should be, we should monitor and explore who we are, that’s the way we discover how to reach our goals and dreams. Astrology is a wonderful tool for the exploration of the possibilities the future might hold; which is why in some cultures, every birth and major life event is accompanied by a visit to the local Astrologer.

In the modern age, especially among those in Western Culture, Astrology is the kind of thing many people have a bit of a giggle about, with only a few really using it as a guide for gaining more from their lives. This decline is happening because Astrology is becoming something of an impotent science. Copious volumes are written on the subject, however, because their readers demand positive insights, they tend to focus on the light, bright and beautiful. Unfortunately, in ignoring the not so bright and pretty, they miss some very important elements. Those missing elements provide the balance point for the whole, without them, you’ve only got half of the story. The true science of Astrology provides a guide to who we are, it includes the bumps and thorns as well as the bright, happy stuff.

Modern Astrology, in its need to be accepted and seen in a positive light, tends to at best, gloss over, and at worst, totally ignore, the Astrological implications of the dark side of human nature. Our society has become too comfortable with denying the possibility of anything negative, refusing to accept and understand the part it plays in our lives. Habitually denying the presence of negative possibilities causes them to be relegated to the dark recesses of the subconscious instead of being accepted as a part of who we are.

Every General knows a battle can only be won by exploring all possible negative and positive outcomes, and preparing the resources under his or her command for potential contingencies. For those who have known there was more to 'The Stars,' but didn’t know where to find it, this book will tell you the truth about the details of the dark side of your Star Sign.

About the Author

Foreword

by Ryllandra Rose - Psychic, Medium and Life Path Specialist

Anyone who is honest about themselves, and those odd feelings, dreams or visions they have here and there throughout their lives, will be able to tell you they recognise they have a side to themselves they don't really understand; and often, would prefer others didn't know too much about.

If you've ever either had the thought yourself, or known others who have said things like, If you really knew me, you wouldn't like me, then you've encountered a recognition of the existence of the Shadow Side. Unfortunately, it also indicates the person doesn't realise the Shadow Side of their personality is needed if they are to enjoy a balanced emotional, mental, spiritual and even physical life.

In contemporary society, most people tend to veer away from appearing to be anything other than 'sweetness and light', going to great lengths to hide anything about themselves that might be construed as 'negative' so they'll be accepted by others. Negative emotions, like resentment, stem from denying the existence of your true emotions or feelings. Acknowledging those emotions gives you greater choices in life.

Use this book, to find and use productively, those aspects of yourself you've have learned to shun, hide or deny. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about why people behave, think and feel the way they do. Put your knowledge into practice and become the person you were truly meant to be!

As a Psychic and a Medium, I've been privy to the end results of some of the greatest lies we've ever been told. Don't wait until you get to the Other Side to discover what lies have been told to you. Read this book and have a good think about what it has to say about you, and those around you.
