[4a] From fresh appearance and strong print, estimated 2000s, although possibly 1990s

[5] The author presents his thesis that “observation of the indirect effects of celestial and other factors on the pineal gland was… the major reason that those who used astrology in their work held such strong beliefs concerning the planets’ influences on us” (p. 13)

[9] Revised from the original edition of 2002

[10] This volume teaches Astro*Carto*Graphy with the aid of eighteen detailed case studies of mostly famous individuals and mundane events, and additionally twelve of the author’s personal life experiences. The many unnumbered pages in the book are a combination of Astro*Garto*Graphy graphs and tabulated data, typically occurring in different orders and mixtures in different places. In view of the already exceptionally convoluted pagination scheme to this volume making any additional breakdown of these pages liable to impede a clear vision of the outline of the book structure, I have not been more specific except in the few instances where the pages between numbered pages are only graphs

[11] A critical edition of eighteen medieval English texts

[12] The author is a popular media astrologer in Australia, whose original identity appears to be a closely guarded secret, but one website claims that Mystic Medusa is now her official legal name

[13] The ‘Soul Mating’ section of the book espouses a wholly unorthodox approach to synastry, relying exclusively on the use of the asteroids Psyche and Eros, while making no reference at all to any of the conventionally used planets. The ‘Sun Signs’ section does go as far as to devote attention to Sun sign synastry.

[13a] After the original edition of 2003

[13b] The date of the original edition is undeclared, but a foreword by the author to the second edition indicates it sold ‘in no time’; a separate introduction by Rao is dated June 16, 1999 and would appear probably to correspond closely to the date of the original edition

[13c] After the original edition of March, 1996, and stated ‘Second Revised Edition’ of January, 2002

[14] An offprint from Kosmobiologie 37 J. / 2., 1970

[14a] Reprinted from the original edition of 1935, q. v. above

[15] Dated 1952, but this copy includes advertising extending to Nr. 46 in the series, suggesting a later date of printing or at least binding

[16] A multi-part work completed in manuscript in February 1936, according to the author’s foreword dated July 1938

[17] This added subtitle appears only on the front cover, not on the internal title page

[18] The only available library records do not give a date. But the advertisements at the rear show dates to 1977 for the serial magazines features; and the author’s signature on this copy is also given as 1977, which can be presumed correct

[19] Including a Hr. Rudolph, possibly Ludwig Rudolph

[20] A small series of publications that ran in parallel to the Astrologische Universal Harmonien series, with its own separate numbering system arbitrarily commenced at 201 to distinguish it from the numbering of the astrological series
