Electional Astrology: The Art of Timing
describes a practical approach to electional astrology. Her most
recent release
Astrology for Beginners: a simple way to read your
chart shows that interpreting your birth chart is
actually easy.
Joann is a proponent of astrology as a means to self-awareness: "astrology confirms that each of us comes into this world with a specific agenda. This is revealed in the horoscope and begins to manifest from the moment of birth. The birth chart symbolism points the way and it's up to you to follow your path. Astrology is not about telling you what to do but reminding you who you are and how you can live your life to the fullest."
Joann writes the annual Electional Astrology Planning Guide available only
through her web site. It provides daily guidance based on the planetary
cycles and is designed to help you choose the best days to succeed.
