Bibliography of Vocational Astrology and Astrological Counselling

There are many old astrological textbooks that give rules for profession and career, and those looking for the rules from a particular time period are advised to refer directly to all relevant primary astrological source texts and check them individually.

However, the main book list here is necessarily limited for brevity to books in the library that either specifically mention keywords related to career, profession or vocation in their titles or, if they do not, are in practice majorly focused upon this area. In nearly all cases, these are relevant to vocational astrology, but one German title on vocational graphology has been thrown in for background interest.

I have not included general birth data collections here but have included some that are focused on very specific professional areas because of their inherent interest to the astrological analysis of vocation. All other birth data collections will have to wait for their own dedicated bibliography.

Appended is a second list of sources that covers astrology as a profession and astrological counselling and consultations in particular, aside from ones that were already caught by the vocational astrology focus above. There is a close relationship between the two lists in that much of astrological counselling has traditionally been focused on career advice, and given that astrology itself is a vocation, it seemed appropriate to combine the two related themes onto a single bibliography page.

If you are aware of any relevant sources that the library ought to have that are missing from these two booklists, please do get in touch with me to nominate them for addition, whether to the library itself or (if they are already present in it) just to this page.

If wishing to cite this select bibliography itself, please link to its web URL and do not copy and paste it to other online locations or publications – a lot of work goes into cataloguing these books, and all rights are reserved.

Thank you,

[1] The author’s real name was Madeline Sylvia Royals (1910-1982). She also later wrote as Madeline Montalban, under which name she was a columnist for Prediction magazine starting in the 1950s; and she was the co-founder of an esoteric order called the Order of the Morning Star

[2] Presents brief Sun sign interpretations followed by separate interpretations of work aptitudes for every date of the year

[3] COPAC records indicate 1946

[4] This part of the title appears only on the front cover, and not on the internal title page

[5] No library records could be found; but one of the titles advertised within is dated by library records to 1950, which would appear a good approximation to the likely date of this one. The advertising does not include publications in the Astrologische Universal-Harmonien series, instead focusing on more popular-level titles, several of which are not listed in library records

[6] From internal references to dates in the late 1930s and 1940 for predictive examples, this part of the course is estimated to have been originally drafted around 1939-1940, though could be slightly later. A former owner’s inked note to the first leaf reads ‘Cours commence le 24 Février, 1960’, but this clearly relates only to the date when she started studying on it and the course itself is much older than this

[7] A renamed reprint of ‘Using Astrology to Create a Vocational Profile’ (2012), which was credited to the author under her earlier name of Faye Cossar, q. v. below. There is no immediate evidence that the text has been changed other than the addition of two books published since 2012 in the bibliography

[8] This printing is said to have been made in just 100 copies, after the first printing of March 2002, stated as having comprised 1000 copies; the second of June, 2005 (500 copies) and the third of July 2009 (100 copies), giving a total print run of 1700 copies by this time. It is also evident from the text that this, or possibly the previous printing of July 2009, was revised from earlier ones, since Blaschke discusses his initial cancer diagnosis and follow-up consultations in 2006-7 in the text

[9] In the advertisement for this book at the back of the 1950 edition of Llewellyn George’s ‘A-Z Horoscope Maker and Delineator’, it is announced as being called “New Light on Expressive Behavior”. There was evidently a change of title to “Profession and Birthdate” by the time of going to press.

[10] The transcript of a lecture delivered by the author to a conference held on February 9th, 1929, in the hall of the Union Coloniale de Belgique, Bruxelles. The aim of the conference was to promote popular awareness of astrology

[11] A facsimile reprint, issued early-mid 2000s, of an unspecified edition of the above, quite probably the same edition but with the original publisher details effaced

[12] The credits continue: ‘Founder Chairman, International Institute of Predictive Astrology, Fairfield, USA, and Propounder of Systems’ Approach for Interpreting Horoscopes’

[13] The credits continue: Vice President, International Institute of Predictive Astrology, Fairfield, USA’

[14] After the first edition of 1997, reprint of 2001, and revised edition of 2007

[15] After the original edition of 1995

[16] Hand-dated “March [19]64” by a former owner

[17] On this copy, the text appears continuous between pp. 52 and 55, the error being in the pagination. The other copy is presumed a later edition in view of the added pages

[18] After the first edition of 2004, second edition of 2007, and previous reprints of 2011 and 2016

[19] After the first printing of 1993

[20] Expanded from the original edition of June, 1975, with hundreds of additional dates of birth for other musicians and composers not featured in the charts, and an index showing the sources for the birth data in the main 100 charts, omitted from the original edition

[21] A print-on-demand publication; this copy printed July 2022

[22] A book of readings of the solar degrees, linked to birthdays. Both succinctly expressed symbols and multi-paragraph readings are included for each day of the year. The true identity of the author is not known

[23] The date of the original edition is given as 1942

[24] After the original printing of the revised edition of 1962. The present printing is in fact expanded from that of 1962 by the addition of four new mundane charts on previously blank preliminary pages

[25] Her credits continue: ‘B.A., M.Ed., Doctorate in Counselling’

[26] After the first of 1983

[27][27] Only the copyright date of 1979 for the original edition by Falken-Verlag GmbH of Niedernhausen/Ts. Is given. This book club edition may or may not have been issued in the sameyear

[28] The first edition appellation seems paradoxical given that the first edition of Vol. 2 is dated 2007 in print. It would seem probable that this copy of Volume I is a reprint from 2012, and the date, which appears in a bolder font, has been changed but the mention of First Edition has been left in by mistake

[29] After the first edition of 1993, second of 1995 and third of 2011, and first reprint of 2015. Confusingly, the first edition of 1993 is referred to as the ’First Enlarged Edition’

[30] Translated from the German edition published in 1997 by Wilhelm Goldmann Verlag, München, q. v. above

[31] The series title ‘Astrologische Universal-Harmonien’ does not appear on the title page, as was commonly the case on those after No. 60 in the series

[32] A facsimile reprint of the original 1933 edition above, with added introductory page about the life of the author and rear advertising matter

[33] A print-on-demand book; this copy produced early 2020

[34] Copyrighted 2014, but no separate date is given for this apparent eighth version, which was issued through print-on-demand by Lightning Source in 2020

[35] The copyright and editorial and design credits are separately attributed to Brown Packaging Books Ltd., Bradley’s Close, 74-77 White Lion Street, London N1. Further credited is the Project Editor, Brian Burns

[36] DNB gives 1951. However, this copy is bound in covers bearing advertisements for numbers up to Nr. 40 in the series, suggesting a slightly later date to the binding if not also the printing

[37] A series of publications collectively edited by Gayatri Devi Vasudev, supported by an editorial board of four, including Mridula and T.P. Trivedi

[38] No separate date is provided for the original edition. The preface is dated March 2016 and the foreword July 2016

[39] After the original edition of 1997

[40] His credits continue: Jyothisha Visharada, Jyothisha Ratna, KP and Stellar Expert, Editor – Astrovision Magazine

[41] Misprinted thus: should read ‘Township’

[42] As the title suggests, an English translation of the volume listed immediately below

[43] A series of books collectively edited by the present author

[44] Worldcat gives 1929

[45] Believed to date from 1929. It was reviewed in “Modern Astrology” magazine in August 1929

[46] 1929 or early 1930. It was reviewed in the issue of “Modern Astrology” magazine for February 1930

[47] The advertising at the end shows it to have been printed in 1953 or later

[48] Presumed circa 1965

[49] Translated from the 1992 AFA reprint of her book ‘In Search of a Fulfilling Career’, for the 1977 edition of which see below

[50] No overall title page within; title taken from front board and spine

[51] After the original edition of 1982

[52] Credited as overall project manager, and as one of three editors together with Julian Wise and Arlan Wise

[53] A collection of 13 articles by different well-respected professional astrologers, to which are appended eleven interviews with astrologers

[54] After the original hardcover edition published by Astrological Publishing, Delhi, in 1974, q. v. above; a second edition by the same publisher appeared in 1977

[55] Jehle’s assessors are listed as Prof. Johannes Mischo, Psychologisches Institut, Universität Freiburg, and Prof. Suitbert Ertel, Psychologisches Institut, Universität Göttingen֨

[56] Earlier copyrights are dated 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2018 and 2019, without explanation

[56a] This copy a print-on-demand issue, printed 2021

[57] A collection of 21 essays by different authors, including eight by Perry alone, two by Donna Cunningham, one by Ray Merriman, one by Bob Mulligan, and one by Perry and Cunningham together with two other authors

[58] A facsimile reprint of the original Aquarian Press edition of 1982

[59] This edition has a completely redesigned cover, but the contents appear identical
