Planets on the Move can be used by the nonastrologer, the student, and the professional.

For the nonastrologer, use the "instant" relocation material in the last chapter to identify your goals and then order an Astrolocality Map from a service (such as Astro Communications) or a professional astrologer which will show you where on Earth those placements would exist for you astrologically. For example, people seeking marriage or relationship potentials might consider areas where Venus is in the 7th house (or Juno, the marriage asteroid), where the ruler of their 7th is in the 7th, or where Venus conjuncts, trines, or sextiles their Ascendant/Descendant axis.

For the astrology student, you can get interpretations for each of the planets (and "big four" asteroids plus Chiron) aspecting the angles; rulers of each of the houses aspecting the angles; changes of house by rulers; and sign changes on the angles (Midheaven/IC and Ascendant/Descendant or East Point/West Point or Antivertex/Vertex). Of course, there is also the "instant" relocation material of the last chapter.

For the professional, in addition to what is discussed above, there are extensive examples and case studies of how people's actual horoscopes change via relocation--and how it relates to their experiences of and in those different areas of the world.

Fellow astrologers have praised the book: "Planets on the Move fills a gaping hole in the literature of our craft...No astrologer should be without it." Steven Forrest (author of Inner Sky, Changing Sky, Skymates, Night Speaks, and Book of Pluto).

"This book includes everything you hoped to know about relocation and a whole lot more." Joan Negus, Education Director of National Council for Geocosmic Research and author of Basic Astrology, Cosmic Combinations, and Astro Alchemy.

"Zipporah Dobyns and Maritha Pottenger have produced a superior book on relocational astrology and have filled a real need...It is by far the clearest and most complete volume on the subject available today." Marilyn Waram, author of The Book of Jupiter and The Book of Neptune
