| | HORARY: The Astrologer's Apprentice |
 | | And that is what, as astrologers, we are privileged to study: the music of what happens, indeed the most beautiful of them all. |
 | | In India, we are told, the classical model of the astrologer at work has him seated in a clearing, making judgement from the surrounding world as well as from the chart itself: the weather, the direction from which the client comes, his clothing, movements of animals, the chart - all are used as one. |
 | | In any group of twenty astrologers, there will be three with whom one may have an enjoyable conversation; three who can induce life-threatening degrees of ennui merely by saying hello, and two who not only study other planets but give every indication of living on one of them. |
