Transits and Solar Returns

By Raven Hawk "Raven" - January 21, 2008

Being a Professional Astrologer and writer myself, I found this to be one of the best books I have reasd in sometime on the subject of Solar Returns.
I strongly recomend it to anyone with an interest in this area.
The read was easy enough for the student to understand and yet would hold the interest of any professional as well.
Well done, 5 stars!!

A dangerous book

By Sebastien - August 18, 2010

I had not heard of this author prior to purchasing this book. As I understand it, he is thought to be one of the best Italian astrologers with years of experience.
Now, about the book. The thing that I liked was that he doesn't mince his words. Good is good and bad is bad. Yes, "bad" very often signifies psychological growth and he mentions that, but this doesn't prevent it from being unpleasant. So, he seems to have a traditional mentality towards astrology. I like that.
The good things however end here. Transits, in my opinion, is by far the most unreliable predictive method. Yet, half of the book is devoted to them in the usual cookbook manner. Mr Discepolo seems to indirectly agree about the unreliability of transits, since in many of his example charts at the end of the book he says something like "by transits alone, no astrologer could have predicted such a horrible year...". However, this didn't stop him from delineating even the Sun transits. Useless.

The SECOND Best Book on Solar Returns and Transits in the History of Astrological Literature

By Dr. D - January 15, 2010

As of this writing, I realize that I'm the first person to give this book a four-star rating. Seven reviewers behind me all gave it five stars, but there are just one or two minor details that prevent this book from getting a full five stars.

There is no shadow of a doubt that Ciro Discepolo is an accomplished and knowledgeable astrologer. That goes without saying. "Transits and Solar Returns" is a monumental effort, being one of the few books in astrological literature today to thoroughly examine the intricate individual meanings of both transits AND solar return planets in the houses and by aspect.

However, the one-star deduction mostly comes with the personal attitude he displays in his writing style. He appears to be very condescending at times and overbearing. For example, take a look at his descriptions for Mars in the 1st, 6th, and 12th Houses (or the Ascendant lying in those houses of the natal chart, more specifically). He completely brandishes... read more
