Astrology Explained as a Tool for Personal Transformation by Author, Jim Sher

A New Approach to Developing Full Expression and Authenticity in One's Life and Tosses Aside Astrology's History as a Predictive Mechanism

Hi Everyone,

This week we sent out a press release on my book Astrology as a Spiritual Path: Birth of the New Human and I wanted to share it with you. I am always grateful to speak about the book because, beyond what I can share on platforms like this, it is the culmination of everything I have learned, making it more comprehensive. So many of my life experiences led me to write it, and I believe astrology, when used in this way, carries within it humanity’s greatest potential.

Astrology Explained as a Tool for Personal Transformation by Author, Jim Sher, in New Book "Astrology as a Spiritual Path: Birth of the New Human"

A New Approach to Developing Full Expression and Authenticity in One's Life and Tosses Aside Astrology's History as a Predictive Mechanism

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire

After spending 35 years as a social worker and psychotherapist, Jim Sher, MSW, shares how a modern version of astrology uncovered the core drivers for 1000's of his clients in, "Astrology as a Spiritual Path: Birth of the New Human." In his new book, Sher reveals the surprisingly contemporary use of astrological archetypes as a more mainstream tool without the cloying history of it being a predictive and unproven art.

Available on Amazon for $22.00 for a paperback and $9.99 on Kindle, the book includes a history of modern psychology and various metaphysical traditions that when layered with Sher's use of astrology expands the possibilities of personal evolution.

08/30/25 – 8:12 pm – slow (OOBs) Moon waxing fire trine Venus

This pause and review of any recent actions trine is the fifth aspect of the day.  What did you do today?  Did you finish anything?  Ask your partner, close friend or family member about their day.  Then share your day.  The conversation may just remind you of something you forgot to do or finish.

 

08/30/25 – 11:25 pm – slow (OOBs) Moon waxing mutable square the Sun

This crisis of action square is the sixth and final aspect of the day.  It is Saturday night so choose your actions carefully.  This may relate back to the New Moon of the 22nd.  What did you start around that date?  What do you need to do to keep it on track and moving forward?

 

08/31/25 – 2:53 pm – slow (OOBs) Moon waxing sextile Mars

This is the only major aspect today and their first aspect since their conjunction the morning of the 26th.  If you have been working on any new things, you might want to take a few minutes to consider how they are developing and what you should do next.

Four hours later (6:55 pm), the Moon will make a waxing inconjunct/ quincunx to shadow Jupiter.  We can’t see everything that’s coming our way.  Sometimes surprises can be good things.  Whatever, if anything, this might mean for you, symbolically with Jupiter in His shadow it could be about something that has already been, or it might be something yet to be.  It could be a long overdue reward, or something that will be delayed.  Only time will tell.
