This book explores archetypal symbolism, predictive technique, and counseling process in therapeutic astrology. Combining insights from Jungian depth psychology, developmental theory, alchemy and dream symbolism with the precision of planetary transits, progressions and midpoints, Planets in Therapy is an inspiring approach to the healing art of astrology.

Planets in Therapy clearly and succinctly explains the interpretation of the language and techniques of astrology, the depth psychological, transpersonal and spiritual meaning of planetary symbolism, and its power to heal and transform.

Greg Bogart masterfully guides the reader through the principles of psychological astrology, emphasizing the process of self-tansformation, spiritual evolution, and discovering the meaning in every event and every moment. A wide range of examples demonstrate how to apply this knowledge to skillfully help others as a counseling astrologer.

Product description

Review

"Consciousness, wisdom, and healing are all achieved through synthesis. In this fine new work, Greg Bogart has given the reader just that--a synthesis of astrology, psychology, and a beautiful panoply of spiritual teachings infused throughout the text. Bogart has also achieved something quite special, an integration of the work and perspective of one of the founding fathers of modern astrology, Dane Rudhyar. Rudhyar lives on through one of his most devoted students in a form that is of benefit to all serious practitioners of our celestial art and science." -- Alan Oken

"You are going to totally love this book if you are serious about mastering the art of astrology, and if you are interested in how all thinking, both conscious and unconscious, interfaces with planetary alignments." -- Michael Lutin, author of SunShines: The Astrology of Being Happy

Great Planetary/Therapy Guide

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on September 3, 2012

Verified Purchase

if you have any knowledge of astrology you will love this book. Even if you have no knowledge but some curiosity you will be treated to a gentle introduction to the art of planetary descriptions.
Author Greg Bogart knows his subject and treats it well. He writes with a style that is accessible, simple to understand and interesting.
What is great about this book is how he weaves the art of astrology with the art of psychotherapy, with special emphasis on the work of Carl Jung.
As it happens I am both an astrologer for over four decades and a psychotherapist. In my practice I rely heavily on the understanding of Carl Jung, Marie Louise Von Franz and Marion Woodman.
To see this book interlacing these disciplines so well provides me with greater depth insight into the workings of human beings. Yet the book is simple and easy to read.
Well done!

Must Read!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 15, 2021

"Planets in Therapy" is one of those books you do not want to finish - it is that good!
The author elucidates terms and intertwines basic and complex principles with elegance and profundity.
It is an excellent book for someone who needs a scholar, while easy to grasp, description of a psychological interpretation of astrological elements.
There is a paucity of books including psychological and humanistic perspectives to astrological terms,
"Planets in Therapy" is one of them.
Chapter 3 is a brilliant read on Dane Rudhyar and his contribution to Humanistic and Transpersonal Astrology; another rarity and must read.
This is definitely one of the books I would recommend to someone who is already familiar with psychological work, and wants to enlighten their astrological understanding weaving both.

Easy to read, for amateurs & professionals alike.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 18, 2014

There are a lot of astrology books, sites, etc., out there that's not worth buying, mostly because they rehash basic concepts. This author is a completely different experience, one that all practicing, or wanting-to-practice, astrologers would definitely benefit reading. Bogart (great name too, ha) approaches the subject from a positive perspective in which astrologers interpret your transits, in relation to your life, to suggest the most skillful use of your planetary challenges, whether they're happy changes in your life (they can be stressful too) or the more challenging lessons. He also infuses his writing with a solid understanding of Jungian archetypes which are embedded in the myths used to define every planet and asteroid in astrology. You definitely need this book in your library.

An excellent book

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 26, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is a good book. This is actually a very good book. It is one of those books that change how you think and by the time you have finished it you will look at a chart in a different and more productive way. You'll find that this book is useful for your own self-growth as well as in working with clients. You will feel educated, and relieved that this is not just another astrology book, one that maybe you could have written. The book is enjoyable to read and hard to put down. It is one you will keep on your desk for future reference.
Those reading this who are acquainted with Greg Bogart know that he is a kind man, gentle but strong, quiet but forceful, soft and solid. Humor glints from his eyes and he says so much to you with those eyes. His aura of spirituality encompasses him and you feel that this is a man you can trust. His years of experience and hard work have brought him to this point of writing this excellent book.
Greg puts himself into the book. He shares his life experiences as examples of what he is writing giving an honest and humble disclosure of his life. As we read the details, we get to like him more and more. His core of spirituality colors his words and his thinking. We see how he lives a spiritual life and how he is an example of one's level of consciousness influencing one's work as an astrologer.Greg shares his dreams with us and in doing so really walks his walks as a therapist.
Although the title has the word "predictive" in it, this is not a book about predicting. Greg makes a clear distinction between predicting what a transit may bring and being proactive on how to best use the energy of that transit. He urges his reader to look for meaning in a possible event and to anticipate trends, then to prepare instead of acting and reacting. He teaches the active approach, not the passive view that things happen to us. He wants us to store water, buy extra food, and secure all outdoor furniture instead of sitting by and letting the big storm come and cause problems. Greg turns the lens so that we see prediction from a different perspective, one of process. Greg gives techniques from his book Astrology and Meditation to help the reader walk through this process.
And, he has a whole chapter on Dane Rudhyar! Greg knew Rudhyar and corresponded with him and he shares Rudhyar's words and thoughts with us. Rudhyar is hard to read. Greg translates Rudhyar's teaching so that one who has never heard Rudhyar speak or who is not familiar with his writings can understand them. Dane Rudhyar's work is valuable and Greg has given us a gift in making an excellent summary of the themes and making the concepts easy to understand.
There is so much more in this book. Greg teaches us about astrology and mental health, he gives us tips on astrology and psychotherapy and the pros and cons of using therapeutic astrology. There are chapters on crisis counseling, couples counseling, and how to use transits and progressions with his personal descriptions of the planets in action. He cites the books of other astrologers as references, generously mentioning their titles and telling the reader to read them to learn more on a topic he is discussing.
I give this book a five star recommendation and do so with pride and honor. As an "elder" astrologer who has been reading astrology books for many decades, it's hard to find a book that blows me away and makes me want to keep it by my side. I go back to it again and again since I was so sorry when I finished it. I wanted to keep reading Greg's words. I have told many colleagues to read it. I urge you to read it, trust me, you'll be glad you did.
