The new astrology is very flexible and the technique can be applied to mundane, planetary conditions as well as to human and esoteric matters. We find that combinations of symbols can be used to describe everything that exists in our world: ourselves, a nation, a group of nations, a planet, and so forth. In the following pages you will find this method of interpretation applied to the horoscope of the U.S.A.
The term ‘New Astrology’ is synonymous with ‘Esoteric Astrology and is used for today’s reformulation of this most ancient art & science.
“It is intuitional astrology which must eventually supersede what is today called astrology, thus bringing about a return to the knowledge of that ancient science which related the constellations and our solar system, drew attention to the nature of the zodiac and informed humanity as to the basic interrelations which govern and control the phenomenal and subjective worlds.”
— Alice A. Bailey, Esoteric Astrology
About the author
English born and raised in South Africa has done extensive scientific research into those hinterlands of the mind which one might call psi-semantics.
He graduated in the Arts & Humanities in South Africa and qualified in medicine at Sheffield University (UK) in 1964.
Having taught in the East End schools of London for 10 years, he began his tour of the Western world giving lectures and seminars in Esoteric Healing, Esoteric Anatomy, Esoteric Astrology, Esoteric Psychology, Esoteric Science and Metaphysics.
He, more than any other, set in motion the trends towards alternative methods of medicine which have transformed that field in Britain today. As medical advisor to the De la Warr laboratories in Oxford, he undertook research into Biomagnetism and quantum physics their effects on the human aura and dark matter, producing the book by the same name in conjunction with George de la Warr.

He established Claregate College, first in America in 1972 and later in England in 1977 and encouraged many hundreds of people to systematise their esoteric studies by attending, courses, seminars, and through the Claregate Correspondence Course.
His transformative experiences during the Second World War, when twice severely wounded, set the pattern for his life long investigations into the Powers Latent in Man.

His research work extends into the discoveries in the field of Dark Matter, Dark Energy and Occult Chemistry.
