Thanks very much for your comment; putting together a reading list was helpful to me as well. It forced me to consider my learning arc.

Regarding John’s upcoming SF lecture, I’m not organizing it, though I will definitely be there! I will forward you the email (to your hotmail account) from Steve Pincus of NCGR who is the organizer for that lecture.

Finally, I would definitely recommend the horary course. It was a turning point in my own astrological and spiritual learning.

Thanks for the recommendations. I just got “The essential Schuon” about a week ago and it looks very good. I started browsing through “Mystical astrology” a few hours ago, and you’re right, it does look like it will be a “must read” but not necessarily a quick one. I also read the chapter on the decline of the craft tradition in Guenon’s “Reign of Quantity…” and it was excellent. Thanks for reminding me to get that book, I am looking forward to reading it in the entirety. Thanks also for the other book recommendations just posted.
Before I forget, I was wondering if you are involved in any way in the registration of the the John Frawley workshop in San Francisco this February. The reason I ask is because your site states that you work in the San Francisco area and I know you were a student of his. If you are not involved, I can always write to him directly. I’m currently in Sacramento, CA, and I would be very interested in attending. I have been considering doing his corresponence course. Maybe it will lighten the passing of my first saturn return!
I look forward to hearing from you.

Respectfully, Peter
