"After teaching advanced students for more than a decade I have been continually disappointed and frus-trated by the lack of a comprehensive text on midpoints. Until now. Don McBroom's new book, "Midpoints" combines theory and application into an incredibly accessible synthesis of an otherwise complicated subject.
Reading this book is like sitting with a master astrologer who takes you by the hand and expertly guides you through every twist and turn that comes with learning this technique. Bountiful examples and illustrations provide visual explanations of this tool and blend seamlessly with Don's relaxed instruction.
Basic concepts including midpoint pictures are quickly dispatched and build the foundation for more ad-vanced applications including unaspected planets, the Aries point, and special aspect structures. Don then finishes the book with a basic introduction to how progressions, transits and solar arcs affect midpoints, per-haps laying the groundwork for a follow-up volume devoted to forecasting.
What more can one say about this book? Only that I will make it a required text for my intermediate and ad-vanced classes and will have it close at hand as I prepare my own client' charts."

I take this book everywhere. The layout of it is structured and easy to read. So many problems that I had with midpoints have now dissolved. It's a much-needed accessory to my learning astrology. I love the formula method for midpoints you use and I am now trying to use this method interpreting aspects such as Natal ones more accurately.
It is very easy to read and for a topic such as midpoints, it is crucially important to have a methodical and logical structure to understand midpoints. I feel certain that Don has achieved this.
I think this is really essential reading for astrolgers at all levels.

Coming from his former life as a pharmacist, Don McBroom carries the physician's caduceus into the alchemical world of planetary symbolism. With this beautifully written book he helps us to understand that we are who we become by responding to our compounds. Midpoints in astrology are little-understood amalgams, so much simpler in design than one would imagine. Every astrology student except the most elementary will surely shout a big "Aha!" after an enjoyable sit with Don's first book. I look forward to many more wonderful ideas from the McBroom closet.
