Since the astronomical community reclassified Pluto in 2006, we have experienced a revolution in how we perceive the celestial bodies that occupy our Solar System. This flurry of new discoveries presents several problems for the astrological community, which Patricia Garner takes up in her thoughtful treatise, A Cosmic Dialogue, with passionate lucidity and scholarly explanations. And her narrative makes a good read. It makes us think, and that’s her primary purpose in writing A Cosmic Dialogue. By addressing the issue of how we name planets, she’s encouraging astrologers to find some core principles that will help build a stronger, more cohesive and constructive community.
