Both retrograde planets and intercepted signs are included in this well-written, in-depth volume. Joanne defines how they differ and what they indicate in the chart. She also introduces new ideas about retrograde planets and intercepted signs, offering fresh insights for interpretation in these sometimes overlooked areas. Retrograde planets and intercepted signs make the chart unique, and each describes the powers and potentials waiting to be unleashed in your life. In some way you will stand apart from the crowd with an exceptional life that is outside the norm and as unique to you as your birth chart. Not everyone is born with such an outstanding opportunity to realize their individual potential. Included is extensive delineation of intercepted signs in the houses, the six sign polarities, the elements, duplicated signs, phases and planetary pairs. Chapters are also devoted to relocation charts, transits in intercepted signs, the importance of environment vs. destiny and various house systems. In addition to a thorough explanation of how planets retrograde, Joanne gives detailed interpretation of the meaning of retrograde planets in the natal chart and their position in the context of the eight stages of cyclic unfoldment, six of which fall into the retrograde zone. This placement specifically defines how a retrograde planet operates in your life. Also thoroughly explained is the meaning of retrograde planets in their transit cycle, and the significance of a retrograde progressed planet.

Charley is an approximately annual publication edited by Maurizio Cattelan, Massimiliano Gioni and Ali Subotnick, and designed by The Purtill Family Business. It is as visual as a magazine and as substantial as a book, but refuses to abide by either genre's rules. Following earlier editions on the 2001-2002 New York art season, on neglected artists from the 80s and early 90s, and on museum acquisitions, this new volume rounds up the stray dogs of contemporary art--Charley 5 features artists who have remained forgotten, proudly secluded or just unnoticed, in spite of their visionary work. Its galleries of obsessions mix professionals and amateurs, cult figures and unknowns, unheard prophets, voluntary outcasts and great solitary masters and freaks, celebrating the extreme subjectivity of more than 50 voices and implicitly questioning accepted hierarchies in the process. The editors have said of their recent work, "it's a way to say, look around...The latest issues of Charley are a lot about 'What ifs': what if there were many more artists than we actually speak about? What if our artist list was just partial and irrelevant?" Charley is sponsored by the Deste Foundation, Athens, Greece, which supports artist's projects, exhibitions, and symposia that explore the relationship between contemporary art and culture.

This book is an introduction to Vibrational Astrology. The fundamental concepts of Vibrational Astrology have some overlap with the concepts in other systems of astrology, but also differ significantly from what students of astrology and professional astrologers may have learned in other astrological systems. Some of the topics covered in this book are: the way in which planets provide essential simple functions and what the function of each planet is, the effect of different astrological vibrations (harmonic aspects), the impact of planetary configurations such as Isotraps, the effect of zodiac signs, and the effect of astrological houses. This book provides a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of Vibrational Astrology. A careful reading of this provides the essential language and ideas that are used throughout all of the applications of Vibrational Astrology.

Rico Scagliola und Michael Meier nahmen während zweieinhalb Jahren Jugendliche auf, dabei entstand ein Archiv von Fotografien und Videos, in die Neue Menschen einen Einblick gibt. Jugendliche von heute stellen die erste Generation dar, die mit den Bildwelten des Internets gross geworden ist. Selbstdarstellungsplattformen wie Myspace und Facebook sind für sie eine Selbstverständlichkeit, sie wissen von früh auf, sich in Bildern zu inszenieren. Meier und Scagliola nutzten die visuelle Raffinesse und die gekonnte Selbstinszenierung der Jugendlichen und integrierten die Bilder und Fantasien, die sie projizieren, in ihren Bildkosmos. Dokument und Inszenierung werden eins. Neue Menschen bietet einen einzigartigen Einblick in eine Welt, in der sich Bilder und Leben immer enger verzahnen - die Heimat der digital natives. Neue Menschen bietet Innenansichten dieser schönen neuen Welt, in der die klassische Themen, die Jugend- und Popkultur umtreiben, einen zeitgemässen Ausdruck finden - Sex und Sehnsucht, Ideal und Wirklichkeit, Schönheit und Abgrund.
