After the failure of the Third Reich, many young people in central Europe were drawn to try to understand the inner nature of people. Among them were the young Bruno & Louise Huber, who met in 1952 in Stuttgart. They were immediately attracted and discovered a common interest in psychology, spirituality and astrology. They wanted to change the world in these areas, and soon married with that in mind.

This book tells of their explorations into astrology and the human psyche, particularly with Professor Roberto Assagioli, the founder of psychosynthesis, and how their ambition was eventually realised through the establishment of the Swiss Astrological Psychology Institute and international schools in the English- and Spanish- speaking areas of the world.

Their new astrological psychology represented a revolution in astrology, and a new approach to psychological and spiritual development. The birth chart became an aid to growth, enabling the piercing of the shell of the habitual ego towards a more spiritual way of life.

This is the story of Bruno & Louise Huber, and many who studied with and were inspired by them.

Industry Reviews

The creative and engaging energy of the Hubers and the astrological method they invented is compelling presented in this delightfully rich book which details the development of astrological psychology in tandem with an insightful telling of the lives of both Bruno and Louise Huber. A must for an astrologer's bookshelf and a fascinating read for everyone else.

- Will Parfitt author of The Magic of Psychosynthesis, The Complete Guide to the Kabbalah, and Meetings With Amazing People.


"This book has reminded me of the humility and wisdom with which Bruno and Louise Huber acted at all times. Pioneers of an advanced view of astrology at the same level as psychology, what attracted me most was the simplicity and humanity in their behaviour and their commitment to personal growth. A headline book for all those who love astrology."

- Rosa Sole Gubianes, Founder of Spanish Huber School


"The world of classical astrology has neglected its potential enhancement through incorporating modern theories of psychology, education and social sciences. This is the life story of Bruno and Louise Huber, who challenged traditional approaches to reading a birth chart. They introduced research into modern human behaviour, creating a new approach to using the birth chart to understand the psycho-social life of the human being, and help the individual person to understand themselves and grow. This book will be a source of inspiration for astrologers and others who want to discover a method that goes beyond fortune telling and speculation, to find a key to describe human nature holistically."
