 I hoped for more ... Oct 20, 2009
Well title sound promising. Some explanations of major event looked like they match to some stars alignment until Mr Levine started talk about events what I know a little better such as two leaders on different sides of front line in World War II. So Mr Levine pointed at year 1931 saying that at this year two leaders (mentioned below) "..coming to power" because of Saturn - Pluto alignment along with Cancer zodiac sign. Here we go. Cancer 21 June - 22 July has nothing to do with that two leaders or their career. Stalin was born on Dec. 21, 1879, Hitler - April 20th 1889. Now about magic 1931. Here is a facts:
" ... By 1921 Adolf Hitler had virtually secured total control of the Nazi party.
March 1933. The powers of legislation was taken away from the Reichstag and transferred to Hitler's cabinet for a period of four years. He was appointed Chancellor of Germany on January 30th 1933.
Stalin was elected General Secretary of the Party in 1922, and began to increase his personal power. By 1930, he stood alone atop the Party and the Soviet Union... "
So as you can see there is not major event on 1931 regarding to these persons.
I'm not going to dig up the other facts. It just enough to say that for me now astrology looks like an edge smearing of accuracy. However the stars has influence on us. For example there was Russian astronomer Anatoly Dyakov (1911--1985) who by studding the Sun activities predicted the weather on Earth with precise accuracy predicting in the summer of 1972 on the Central Russian elevation fall great dryness and frost in France. Here is some facts of underestimating the skeptics: Paris, France. Reciprocal telegram: To [a]. [V]. [Dyakov], Temir Tau, the USSR (in sufficient- after all the lenient tone): "Thanks for the dispatch, and in particular for the urgency. We already dress into the warm mantle" (allegedly, ha ha, healthily frightened us you, Russian associate!). On December 21, 1978 - very beginning of the promised By [dyakovym] unprecedented frost in France. Strong temperature drop in Europe produced a sharp increase in the expenditure of electric power... Many plants and factories ended work... Trains froze... Damage is evaluated at four billion French Francs.
Well I can't recall that Mr Levine mentioned these events.
In my opinion there is a connection between us and stars. It just looks like astrologists can't put all ends together to give accurate picture of this connection.
As for DVD itself I can't give more stars because there is no chapters so you can't jump to the next episode if you want to continue to watch it next time, there is not background music, there is only one person constantly talking, there is not enough illustrations and animations, there are a lot dates which Mr Levine trying to squeeze in to Saturn - Pluto alignment.

 Shades of Esalen........... Jan 13, 2009
Amazon tells me that "the community" shows a high interest in my reviews and has requested that I upload a photo of myself for my profile page. Most likely, my tendency to be truthful to a fault has attracted someone who would like to make a dartboard out of my face. Well, far be it from me to disappoint. So here I go with my review of this DVD: Astrology 101 with occasional mention of nebulous quantum concepts. Entertaining graphics-the best part of the video. Excellent for newbies on the New Age scene - been there, done that, packed my toys away. What remains is an extensive (and expensive!)esoteric library going back nearly half of a century to lend occasional guidance to thirty plus years as a spirit-centered astrologer. Trust me - this DVD is sadly lacking in both content and technical presentation. I almost felt sorry for Rick Levine as he sat in front of that big cold fireplace reading the teleprompter with his flat-lined voice echoing around the room (can you say "acoustics"?) For the first time in my life, I found myself turning off a tape/DVD because it was annoying me to no end. Save your money and buy yourself a good general astrology primer. And send a good thought for Sacred Mysteries; I'm sure that they mean well.

 Watch the first half if you are new to astrology Apr 20, 2008
The first half of this dvd is a gem. The second half - yes, it does have a lot of pretty boring Rick talking about world events as they pertain to Pluto. My husband is fairly new to astrology with only a basic understanding - he loved the first half, and hated the second.
I have studied astrology for years. I enjoyed the first half better than the second, but I did feel the second half gave me insight. It was just that it was less of a multi-media presentation (like the first half)and more of a boring lecture.
I do think this is a good dvd to watch if you want to learn more about how most of us believes 'it works.'

 Well presented views of time Apr 09, 2008
I enjoyed and appreciated seeing this done on dvd. I am an older astrologer and greatly enjoyed this presentation of some interesting views,facts and pictures. I plan to share this with a group. It is a good perspective to always keep in mind.

Enlightening Aug 08, 2007
Quantum Astrology is an interesting, informative and insightful look at the science behind astrology. I've watched this DVD 3 times just since I bought it last year and have learned more than I would have imagined every time I watch it. Although it does tend to drag in a few places, you hardly notice as Rick Levine makes such a strong and believable case for the science of astrology........a long time coming. Well worth the price.
