Real Life Astrology: The Cross of Matter

The Cross of Matter connects the most important points in your natal chart: The Ascendent-Descendant axis and the Midheaven-Nadir axis. The question is, why is that so important? To answer that, think of the most basic questions you can ask someone: Who are you?, Where are you from?, Are you in a relationship? What do you do? We ask those questions to find out who someone is - and each of those questions can be answered by the cardinal points - the angles - in your birth chart.

The Ascendant. The Descendant. The Midheaven. The Nadir. The angles of your birth chart represent the points where the energies of the planets and signs make contact with reality in the most visible and immediate sense - and that's because of their associations with the most important things in your life - your family, your partner and your career and - most of all - yourself. These are the most important factors that shape your life.

In spiritual terms, the Cross of Matter symbolises the current incarnation of your spirit on this earth. In astrological terms, the Cross of Matter is important because it provides the foundation for the most accurate natal chart interpretation. If you want to know how to deal with the realities of your existence and how to keep things held together, this book, Real Life Astrology: The Cross of Matter, will tell you everything you need to know. 

In this book, Sara Shipman explains what the Cross of Matter represents in everyday terms, and she shows you how to interpret your cardinal points - the Ascendant (AC), Descendant (DC), Midheaven (MC) and Nadir (IC) in ways that are relevant to everyday, lived experience. This book includes:

A full analysis of the Ascendant-Descendant axis by sign.
