Books for Beginners

I really like the book of birthdays! I'm pretty sure there's a hard and soft edition and you can buy them used on Amazon. It has every day broken down extensively as well as breakdowns in signs with their decans, the children of different seasons, and a lot of other basic astrology breakdowns. 

when i first started out, i came across this book by liz greene about chart reading that really helped me when learning how to read other people's charts. a preview should be available through google books.

I started my research with a book entitled "The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need" by Joanna Martine Woolfolk. What's awesome about it is the chart in the back. It's based on the Tropical system, for those that follow it. The chart shows the individual placements for each planet based on birthdate so you can manually build your natal chart. My favorite place to get used books for cheap is alibris.com. I got my copy for something like $6-$8 plus shipping.

I hope this helps!

Oh I've never heard of that albris site!  I'm definitely checking them out asap. I just picked up The Only Astrology book and hoping to start reading it soon. 

One of my favorite astrology books I’ve come across is The Complete Guide to Astrology by Louise Edington 

i found the a to z horoscope maker and interpreter at my local witchy shop for like $10 and it is sooo in depth and incredible!!! also, i love using the rulership book (free google drive pdf) for quick little investigations (i think its so cool lol)
