Nessus in astrology

In mythology, Nessus symbolises poison offered as a gift, a false sense of security that traps us. In mindfulness astrology, he reveals the inherited conditioning — familial, social, collective — that makes us feel secure on the surface but limits our being. Nessus invites us to have the courage to decondition ourselves: to see without judging what has been passed on to us, to disidentify ourselves and to stop perpetuating what makes no one happy. This book explores 144 combinations of Nessus in sign and house, to recognise illusions and rediscover authentic inner freedom.
