Given my relatively poor understanding of the language of astrology I am finding more in the analysis in BP of personal worth (at this time) in the prose (approachable and enjoyable!) between the heavier astrological parts.
I realise you can't cover every instance of www is in the xxx sextant with yyy opposing a strong zzz, in this kind of work, you'd have to write another book - the analysis of the analysis to achieve that....
But I would add that the thought of an analysis of V&V would appeal to many who might not have such a well-structured familiarity with astrology.
Tough call.

"IMHO anyone interested in magick should have several substantial books on astrology. I think that would serve far better than even another few dozen pages summarizing high points."
Despite the fact that he never overcame his Tropical hindrance, Crowley's underappreciated tome on the subject (Liber 536) is an excellent introduction to the study of Astrology. In particular, his section on Rising Signs is classic Crowley: equal parts wit, scorn, and erudition--with a healthy smattering of lofty, egotistical prose. (The section on Leo is particularly amusing. It's all to obvious that he was quite proud of his Leonian nature, when in fact he embodies all the cranky charm of the Crab.
)At any rate, I look forward to your treatment of the subject, Jim.

This is interesting to me for a couple reasons. The way I discovered this website was due to a dream I had 5 years ago.
In the dream I found myself in The Duat. I was waiting to have my heart weighed and I saw Maynard Keenan, lead singer of Tool. An aside, some of you may not be familiar with the magickal energy they project during concerts, but they commonly hang a star of Babalon on stage, along with large circular boards sporting various sigils.

http://stashbox.org/57767/Tool-Crowley.jpgAnyway, many references in their music as well. So I had noticed these subtle occult clues on their Lateralus album and began just looking into crowley.
Back to the dream. I went and sat down by maynard and we began a conversation. I asked him if he had any hobbies and he starts pulling these suitcases out. "I collect retro suitcases" he tells me. He pops one open and there are stacks of zines. He hands one to me and says, "Here, google this when you wake up. It's called Black Pearl. You'll enjoy it."
So I wake up and google it and ::pow!:: whatyah know? Black Pearl..a thelemic zine which I had never heard of. That told me I was on to something. I wrote to most likely Jim, asking where i could find them and was told they were no longer in circulation. Darn. But I started studying and reading this board and voila! Now today I can finally read them. Pretty cool! -

(1) Update Adobe Reader; or
(2) Re-download the file.I just downloaded the file. It took about 10 minutes on a T1 line, so it's large. It opened fine in Acrobat Reader 9.3.4.

Another thanks for these, Jim!
I've been reading them on my kindle (another w00t!) and I must say, they really were ahead of their time in may ways. A lot of what they cover are things that I am just beginning to understand for the first time now.

ooh. drop box. yep. Since you're giving these things away free, might I suggest you investigate making them available on Scribd.com? You might make some scratch.
