Description
The planets play a key role in astrology - from revealing aspects of your personality to exerting their influence upon different areas of your life - thanks to their movements in the sky. But what do we really understand about these cosmic powerhouses?
How To Thrive in Retrograde helps you navigate the twists and turns of life, get a deeper understanding of who you are, why you need to know how the planets work, what they represent and the impact of each retrograde upon your birth sign. This book is a simple guide that demystifies astrology jargon by clearly highlighting each planet's influence, and what it means when they move "backwards", or retrograde, in your birth sign.

Retrograde: what it is and what it means
Planet profiles, retrograde planets and your star sign
How to work with the planets in retrograde
