Astrology for the Third Act of Life

By: Elizabeth Spring

Narrated by: Laura Jennings

Length: 3 hrs and 1 min

Publisher's Summary

Between the ages of 40-88 there are life passages you should know about in order to move through the transits of the Third Act of Life with grace, insight, and empowerment. By combining astrology, Jungian psychology, and personal memoir, Elizabeth shows how midlife gives us a chance to deepen and connect with our Soul. 

In describing each of the astrological transits of aging, Elizabeth gives tools to help you cope and thrive through all these ages; what was once esoteric and unmapped territory is now known. But when is the time to make radical changes? When is the time to turn inward and reflect? By understanding the challenges and gifts of each transit-age we see all the times of opportunity.      

As she says: "My hope is that as we navigate these waters of the Third Act of Life we will muster the courage to experience both a deepening of our sense of Self and - dare I say it - a re-enchantment of our lives. This journey, marked by the wisdom of the astrological journey, is about challenging changes but is also the well with the deepest joy."

Wonderful contemplative offering

The author unwraps the passage of the ages as she invites us on a journey of marvelous meaning. Wonderful contemplative offering for astrologers and non-astrologers alike. There is something here for everyone to savor.

Topic worth listening to the narrator

The narrator is so breathy as to be distracting. I have actually rejected books based on her samples, but wanted to listen to this books on this topic enough to work through the annoyance.

Disappointed at the lack of astrology in this book

I have read and enjoyed several of the author's other books and was excited to see this one as I am in one of the age groups covered. However sweet her musings on aging, there was very little astrology in this book. Not what I expected, and found myself annoyed.

A Nice Read

I personally thought the author was very knowledgeable and can convey some very useful information! I however would have benefited from having a bit more personal knowledge of this subject prior to jumping in to this book! I will re listen after I get myself a little better foundation in Astrology! thank YOU

An important perspective for all ages!

I especially love the metaphors interlaced throughout Elizabeth Spring's latest book, Astrology for the Third Act of Life... which add depth and breath to a highly informative book that outlines milestones we all face as we age. Her perspective is an important read for self-empowement at each key transit: Saturn, Uranus, Jupiter, Neptune or Chiron. Each of these passages have their own particular flavor & we can gain some peace of mind that can provide us with the opportunity for graceful transitions as we age. As a fellow astrologer, I found this book highly informative and I also recommend it to anyone without any knowledge of astrology.... everyone can benefit from reading it!

Loved it!

A must have book for anyone entering their 40's and beyond!! Elizabeth Spring writes this in such a way that no astrological experience is needed. I will be sharing this with all my friends and family in their third act of life!

Loved this at 51. Wait.... 52! ?!?

This is my first audio book. I loved it. It was interesting, Inspiring, poetic, insightful, spiritual, easy to follow. It was healing to me and gave me a more positive perspective about aging. ¡ Alhumdulillah ! The narrator was excellent! My only suggestion for the listener would be to take notes. I’ll listen to it again with pen and paper in hand.

Baby boomers must read!

Wonderful book! Exactly what I was looking for! I think this book was written for me! Thank You 💕
