| Synopsis: |
Martin Davis is a leader in the field of Astrolocality astrology. His influential first book, Astrolocality Astrology [The Wessex Astrologer, 1999], is the authoritative textbook in the field. This book, 'From Here To There: an astrologer's guide to astromapping', is his latest work on the subject. Written with a deep understanding of the material, Davis presents a masterful portrait of locality astrology today, and its potential for the future. Davis begins this work with a first in astrological literature: recounting the history of the field (telling its story), from ancient Babylonia to modern times. He then introduces specific, essential works of contemporary astrologers who are utilising the techniques in their work. Davis shows how locations of significance and global hotspots can be identified astrologically, bringing the influence of space (where something may happen) into the usual astrological focus on time (when something may happen). This is a critical enlargement of astrological perspective for today's needs, were an understanding of influences around the globe is critical for our very well being. |
