Apollo’s Chariot: The Meaning of the Astrological Sun

The Sun has always been a symbol of life, light, and divine purpose across ancient traditions, myth, and astrology. In Apollo’s Chariot, Liz Greene—one of the most respected voices in psychological astrology—guides us into the heart of the Sun’s meaning in the natal chart. This book explores the Sun not as a simplistic “ego symbol,” but as the radiant core of identity, creativity, and destiny.

Drawing on mythology, depth psychology, and astrological tradition, Greene weaves a profound narrative of how the Sun acts as both a guiding light and a source of personal challenge. She delves into Apollo as the archetype of illumination and order, showing how this mythological imagery reflects the ways in which the Sun shapes personality, aspirations, and spiritual purpose. Each zodiac sign is explored in terms of the Sun’s placement, offering readers a deeper appreciation of the unique life journey that unfolds from this radiant center.

Written in Greene’s characteristically rich, poetic style, Apollo’s Chariot is more than an astrological manual—it is a spiritual text for those who wish to understand the deeper meaning of individuality, vitality, and the creative spark.
