Chinese Power Animals: Archetypes of Transformation by Pamela Leigh Powers

Chinese Power Animals: Archetypes of Transformation offers Pamela Leigh Powers’s synthesis of Chinese animal symbolism and Western astrology. Rather than organizing everything around a birth year alone, her approach relates animal archetypes to the Sun, Moon and ascendant in a natal chart.

Tables help readers locate the relevant associations, while illustrations and exercises encourage reflection on personality and relationships. The astrological connections are the author’s interpretive system, not scientifically established personality measurements. This is an astrology book, not an animal-spirit shamanism manual or a set of oracle cards.
