Astrology Mundane

• Baigent, Michael; Campion, Nicholas and Harvey, Charles Mundane Astrology (Wellingborough,England,1984).
  Good review of traditional methods, plus an excellent review of various schemes of astrological periodization, both western and eastern, out of which a new "ecumenical" mundane astrology for the whole world may emerge. Also explores other new methods, mid-points etc. that are growing in popularity in western astrological circles.

• Carter, Charles E.O. An Introduction to Political Astrology: Mundane Astrology ( London, Fowler, 1973) 3rd Edition.
  Carter was probably England's most distinguished Astrologer of the generation that worked during the 2nd World War. In doing this he found himself able to suggest many modifications of traditional methods, which made, and make sense. A most important book. Carter has also written books on various "Specialty" subjects which bridges to the generation of Sepharial and Robson.

• Green, H.S. Mundane or National Astrology reprinted in Mundane Astrology (North Hollywood, CA, Symbols and Signs 1977).
  This is probably the most appropriate basic traditional text in Mundane Astrology, for supplemental considerations, see Charles E.O.Carter, Political Astrology.

• Raphael, Raphael's Mundane Astrology reprinted in Mundane Astrology (North Hollywood, CA, Symbols and Signs, 1977).
• This is similar to, and supplements the H.S. Green. There is nothing particularly wrong with it, though it is even furthur out of date than the Green in tone, but between the two choose Green. Supplement either with Carles E.O.Carter, Political Astrology.

• Reid, Vera W. Towards Aquarius (New Yor, N.Y. Arco, 1969).
  A classic statement of the modern theory that the precession of the equinoxes defines a series of epochs, or "ages". Evidence for this is drawn from historical and mythical sources. It is in this theory that the "Age of Aquarius" has its genesis.Should be distinguished from the various classical and arabic/persian theories of epochs of a similar sort which have often a rather different astronomical basis.

• Sepharial, The Theory of Geodetic Equivalents reprint (Washington, D.C. AFA, No Date Given)
  Sepharial's attempt to go beyond traditional geographic rulerships and discover a better theoretical way to develop rulership attributions for the whole world. See also C.E.O.Carter, Political Astrology.

• van Norstrand, Frederic, Precepts in Mundane Astrology, (New York, Macoy, 1962).
  Applies the standard precepts of mundane astrology to USA charts and problems. Less complete or illuminating than Green, or Carter, but still valuable.
