The first in-depth analysis of how an individual's natal horoscope reveals the unique challenges and opportunities of midlife.

BETWEEN THE AGES OF THIRTY-SEVEN AND FORTY-ONE, something mysteries occurs within the psyche. Jung callled this phase our "unlived life," assuming rightly that midlife does not inaugurate a time of rapid decay, loss of libido, and inevitable death—but rather ushers in a stage in which we might review our lives contemplatively and move more consciously into the next phases of adult development.

In The Astrology of Midlife and Aging, acclaimed astrologer and author Erin Sullivan takes us through the metamorphosis, and across the threshold of midlife into full maturation and elderhood. Sullivan shows how this period is demarcated by planet Uranus, which traverses halfway through its own cycle—called "half-Uranus" in the natal horoscope—when midlife begins to dawn. At this time, we may observe our own lives in a manner of symbolized by Uranus, a slow-moving planet, awakening foresight, change, and discovery.

This crossroads is filled with opportunity—most especially to revisit our past experiences, clarify them, and undergo the necessary pruning in preparation for the future. There exist no maps of this midlife terrain except the natal horoscope. In this enlightening book, Sullivan guides us through this sequence of life passages, where conscious maturation and creative aging become living options.
