PAUL
R. GRELL AWARD
UNDERSTANDING
INTERCEPTIONS
The PAUL R. GRELL AWARD was Presented to Chris McRae In Recognition For The Best Book Published by AFA During The Years 2000 - 2002. This is that book.
Ken Irving, in American Astrology, January 2001, "This is the definitive book on interceptions, and it will likely remain so for years to come."
Mountain Astrologer review states: "Her book is thoroughly researched, with lots of supporting data, documented birth times, charts, and life stories. She covers all imaginable facts of interceptions in her book: house systems and the mechanics of interceptions; transits or progressions of planets into intercepted houses; progressed house cusps, intercepted and repeating signs; and intercepted planets. McRae is an experienced teacher, and she excels at making a potentially complicated subject understandable without oversimplyinng the concepts involved."
Rowena Wall writes: Chris McRae is well known within the astrological community as an excellent speaker and astrologer.....Chris is a great writer and makes her subject easily understood. This is a book that every astrologer should have in their library, and I am certain that all of them will want to. Great job, Chris!
Ellen Zucker, writing for Organization of Professional Astrologers magazine, says, "Chris McRae takes complex ideas and makes them easy to comprehend. This is an excellent book on a subject whose impact is often overlooked. It is well worth your time and attention."
THE GEODETIC WORLD MAP
The Geodetic Equivalent concept is simply a house cusp structure that can be computed, by hand or by computer, for any geographic location. It has many uses. Into its structure you could insert your natal planets for a relocation assessment. You may also insert the chart for Eclipses, Lunations, Great Conjunctions, etc., in order to determine geographic hot spots that are singled out for activity such as political, geophysical, as well as unusual weather conditions.
The book contains other fascinating examples of disasters both man made and natural, such as as train collisions, the space shuttle Challenger explosion, the sinking of the Titanic, and 1929 Stock Market Crash, and many others.
The concept is believed to have been first developed by a man who called himself "Sepharial", but whose real name was Walter Richard Gorn Old, 1864 - 1929. The above book written by Chris, expands the concepts with many visual examples, and shows how the angles can be viewed on a world map for quick visual assessment of planetary positions and potential activity.
It was published in 1988 by the AFA (American Federation of Astrologers).

of the Macrocosm", published by Llewellyn Publications in 1990.
This is an excellent book contributed to by various well known authors
including Nicholas Campion, Richard Nolle, Jim Lewis, Diana Rosenberg,
Marc Penfield, etc. Michael Munkasey writes, "Mundane astrology
takes more innate talent, as a vocation, than perhaps any other field
of astrology. This book is a wonderful place to meet some of the best
astrologers we have practicing in this field."
