Review of
"The Astrology of Family Dynamics" as published on amazon.com "I love Erin Sullivan's new book because it begins by bringing a Norman Rockwell picture of the family to mind and asking you if you don't find this really horrifying, it is so different from your family! This is one of the points of this great new look at an age-old problem. Families today are as different as individuals. The astrology in this book does not look to shame or blame. The object is to see what is and see what could be if perspective could change. I like this positive approach because my family is far from a Rockwell idyll and frankly I'm tired of grousing around about it. Sullivan uses classic interpretation techniques but applies them to groups of charts that cluster on the branches of the family tree. She also has some innovative ways of interpreting family dynamics that I feel are interesting though not conclusive. I have had approximately the same amount of practical experience as Sullivan reading astrology charts (27 years in my case) and I do not feel her "conclusions" are conclusive! They are certainly worth further exploration, however. I would consider this a seminal work. So, why not grab your Family Tree, shake down some of the those branches and see what all you little monkeys were about in incarnating together over a long period of time. Sullivan is particularly good with the Ancestors, by the way. I think you will enjoy her approach to genealogy and heritage and find it empowering. Give this good book a try. But advanced astrologers only." by Nancy R. Fenn
