The birth-chart indicates certain physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual tendencies with which the person is endowed at birth. The blueprint ahows what the soul has on its spiritual ledger—the debits and credita. “This is the right use of astrology by the student. The pereon who studies from this point of view draws increasingly from the higher side of the planetary forces, develope his intuition and finds himself more and more able to interpret these forces cor- rectly in terms of life and energy. Such a study trains the student. in perceiving realities behind forms. “Astrology deals with symbols, and the soul speaks and thinks in symbols. The interpretation of symbols is a necessary faculty for every spiritual student to develop. In planes beyond the earth, everything must be understood through symbols, for lan- guage is of the material plane only. Once you transcend the earth plane, you must read by inner perception and understand- ing. The study of psychological astrology prepares the student for higher planes of greater glory and power.”ASTROLOGY A Cosmic Science Isabel M.
