A note from Linda

Life is not a hill you climb until forty and then roll down.

We are told that life peaks early and the rest is decline. Astrology has never seen it that way. In astrology, life moves in cycles, each with its own purpose, and the later ones are among the richest.

Saturn, the planet of later life, is also the planet of wisdom and mastery. Uranus, which completes its one great circuit at eighty-four, is the planet of freedom. The tradition is telling us something: the second half of life is when you collect what you have earned and become free to be yourself.

You have something no twenty-year-old has. A long life to check it against.

When you read that one cycle arrives around 29, another around 42 and another around 59, you can look back and ask, “What was happening to me then?” Very often the answer is striking.

That is why I believe this is the best time of all to learn astrology. And it is why I wrote these seven books for the life you are living now.

What you will be able to do

Real answers for the questions you are asking now

No jargon and no guesswork. Each book takes one part of your life and shows you, step by step, what your chart says about it.

1

Read your own birth chart

Starting from zero. All you need is your birth date, a notebook and a free copy of your chart. Book 1 shows you exactly where to get it.

2

Know which chapter you are in

Every age from the late thirties to 84 has its own planetary cycle. See what yours is for, and what is coming next.

3

Understand yourself with money

Why you save or spend the way you do, where your blind spot is, and a calm yearly rhythm for looking after your finances.

4

Choose your days well

The traditional art of good timing: lucky days, the Moon’s phases and the planetary hours, for anything from a family party to a lottery ticket.

5

Live in step with your nature

Your natural energy, what tires you, what restores you, and gentle daily rhythms that suit your temperament.

6

Understand the people you love

Why your husband goes quiet when he is worried, why your daughter bristles at advice, and how to reach each grandchild.

The seven books

One series. Every part of your life.

From Book 7 · Your Sign After 50

Aries After 50

March 21 to April 19

The young Aries charges at life head down. There are a good many bumps as a result. By fifty, most of you have learned to look before you leap, at least some of the time.

What does not change is the spirit. At seventy you are still the one who says, “Come on, let’s try it.” What ripens is your courage.

Your full chapter goes on to cover your gifts and challenges now, your purpose in retirement, your way with money, your wellbeing, your relationships and your lucky notes.

Is this for me?

Written for life after 50. Useful long before.

Wherever you are on the road, there is a chapter that speaks to this exact stretch of it.

In your forties

Make sense of midlife

The great midlife crossing runs from the late thirties to 44. Book 2 explains what is happening and what it opens up, so you reach fifty prepared.

In your fifties

Plan the next thirty years

Fifty is a threshold, and your second Saturn return is on its way. This is the moment to ask what the years ahead are for.

In your sixties and seventies

Enjoy what you have earned

Retirement, freedom, family, legacy. This is the heart of the series, and every one of the seven books speaks to it.

In your eighties and beyond

Come full circle

At 84, Uranus completes its one great circuit of your chart. Few books say a word about it. These do.

New to astrology

Begin at the beginning

You need no experience at all. Every special word is explained the first time it appears, and there is a glossary at the back.

Looking for a gift

Give something that lasts

A thoughtful present for a milestone birthday, a retirement, or a mother, father or friend who has always been curious.

About the author

Hello, I’m Linda.

I was a teenager when my grandfather gave me a book on astrology. I doubt he knew what he was starting. There were no apps then and no websites. If you wanted to see a birth chart, you drew it yourself, with a pencil, a ruler and pages of tables. So that is what I did, chart after chart, by hand.

In the early 1990s it became my profession, and it has been my work ever since. In more than thirty years I have read charts for people at every kind of turning point: a retirement, a loss, a new love, a birthday with a zero in it.

Those years taught me something the textbooks leave out. Astrology gets better as you get older. At twenty-five, a chart is a set of promises. At sixty, it is a story you can check against your own life, and that is when it becomes truly useful.

Yet almost everything written about the signs assumes the reader is young. So I wrote the books I always wished I could hand to people: plain, practical, and written for the life you are living now.

Good questions

Before you decide

I know nothing about astrology. Will I keep up?

Yes. Book 1 starts from zero and explains every special word the first time it appears. Every chapter ends with a short exercise called “Try this” and a few lines called “In short”, so you can check that the main ideas have landed. A notebook and a pen are all you need.

I’m not 50 yet. Are these books for me?

If you are in your forties, yes. Book 2 begins with the cycles of the late thirties and forties, and the rest of the series shows you what lies ahead so you can meet it prepared. Everything in Book 1 applies at any age.

Do I need to know my exact time of birth?

No. Much of the series works from your age or your Sun sign alone. For your birth chart, your date and place of birth are enough to begin, and Book 1 explains what to do if you don’t know the time. If you do know it, you will get even more from your chart.

How do I receive the books?

As soon as your payment goes through, you get a download link on screen and by email. Nothing is sent by post, so there is nothing to wait for.

What do I need to read them?

Each book comes in two formats. The PDF opens on any computer, tablet or phone, and you can print it at home. The EPUB is for e-readers and reading apps such as Kindle, Apple Books and Kobo, where you can make the text as large as you like.

Can I buy just one book?

Of course. Each book is $74.99 and stands on its own, with a short refresher of the basics at the start of Books 2 to 7. If more than two of them interest you, the collection is the better buy: all seven for $199.99.

Which book should I read first?

If you are new to astrology, start with Book 1. Otherwise, start with whatever is on your mind: Book 2 for a turning point, Book 3 for money, Book 4 for luck, Book 5 for wellbeing, Book 6 for family, and Book 7 for your own sign.

Is this a subscription?

No. You pay once and the books are yours to keep. There are no monthly charges and nothing to cancel.

Is it safe to pay online?

Yes. Payment is handled by Stripe, one of the world’s largest payment services. Your card details go straight to Stripe and are never seen or stored by us.
