This is a study of pure metaphysics. Broadly speaking, the study is grouped into four main divisions: Basic esoteric postulates of astrology are given in the first three chapters. They describe the basic assumption of theism which is the one universal life principle ever pulsating in the entire manifestation of which the evolution of mankind is but one ingredient.

The second group contains two chapters, namely, the Field & the knower of the field, and, Dimensions of human life, deals with occult views on certain aspects of our life. Problems like the constitution of man, the significance of birth & death, death & creativity, and such other aspects....

Chapter Seven, namely, the Astral fluid, Force centers & the Nirvanic flame explains the rational of planetary influences. The usual contention that tiny stars flickering millions & billions of light years away from us, and that also only a few of these stars & not every star thus situated, are incapable of influencing our physical conditions as well as psychological & psychic developments, is tackled in this chapter.

The last four chapters on Esoteric astrology form a group intended for those who desire to mould their life according to the occult view of life. They discuss the problems of intricate human motivation & the operation of inner forces which require special care.The book is particularly Theosophical in outlook. Among the authors cited in the notes are H.P. Blavatsky, C.W. Leadbeater, Geoffrey Hodson, T. Subba Row, H.S. Olcott, Annie Besant, etc.
