This is a treasure of a book for those seeking to learn more about the astrology of conception and birth. The Moon has long been linked to motherhood but what exactly is she up to?

Margaret Millard has distilled within a modest space the fascinating findings of five decades of medical and astrological enquiry. She has gathered together, for meticulous but open-minded examination, many facts, theories, and techniques, including the ancient Trutine of Hermes. Infertility, heredity, the possibility of choosing the sex of the child, and of accurately predicting the date and time of birth, are just some of the matters considered along the way.

In her own inimitable style, Dr. Millard brings astrology alive in many casenotes, personal insights, and anecdotes. She has an unusual gift for bringing together and sharing with others her gleanings from both science and mysticism. With this latest book she fills a long-standing gap in the literature of her subject.
