Verdict: In Phoenixes and Angels: Mastering the Eighth and Twelfth Astrological Houses, Carmen Turner-Schott gives practical advice and tips on how to implement self-care strategies to overcome challenges and help the reader gain greater self-awareness.
So, what do these Eight and Twelfth houses contain, I hear you ask? Well, in the Vedic Astrology, the Eighth house regulates the areas like death, longevity and sudden-unexpected events. The developments which are triggered in one’s life due to the scenario in the house number 8 include one’s lifespan (longevity) and the probable reason for his/her death as per 8th house astrology.
Furthermore, the Eighth house is the most powerful house in astrology, for it not only rules death, regeneration, rebirth, healing, transformation, sexuality, behind-the-scenes energy, power, and secrets, but all the energy of Scorpio and Pluto brings a heightened awareness of the deep things in life from which most people hide.
As for the Twelfth house, well, natives born with their Twelfth House in Pisces (its ruling sign) are often comfort-seeking, empathetic, intuitive, and a bit aloof. However, despite their often shy or cold exterior, those born with a Twelfth House in Pisces in their birth chart, are deeply compassionate and blessed with hidden talents.
Which follows that the Twelfth house is the most spiritual and mystical house in astrology. It rules cosmic consciousness, oneness with God, compassion, service to others, psychic abilities, imagination, sleep, dreaming, addiction, secrets, and much more. All the energy of Neptune and Pisces brings a heightened awareness of the spiritual world and the divine.
Thus, Phoenixes & Angels: Mastering the Eighth & Twelfth Astrological Houses is where both Eighth and Twelfth house people share similar life experiences, which furthermore highlights actual stories from these people, which can help those interested in learning more about themselves and helping others.
In short, not only will this book from intuitive empath Turner-Scott benefit astrology students, seasoned astrologers, beginners, and those who want to learn how to counsel individuals with eighth and twelfth house planets, but my bet is that even the innocent bystander that picks it up will fast become enthralled by its pages and wish to learn more. It’s just that good!
