Yes.
My absolute favorite Astrology text is called The Archetypal Universe by Renn Butler. It is essentially an archetypal cookbook, and in that sense it is a reference book too.
The first part goes over all the planetary pairs and how their archetypal energies co-mingle with each other. Soooo.... Mercury-Pluto, Uranus-Mars, Sun-Venus, etc. Butler goes deep on each pair, highlighting the archetypal energies, dream images, shadow sides, etc.
Then at the end of the book, he covers planetary triads, so.... Mercury-Sun-Uranus, stuff like that.
I use this book a lot in my study/practice of astrology. I like how it's not really imbued with any one tradition. In that sense it really gets to the essence of what I feel astrology is all about, which is the archetypes.
Apart from Renn's book, I love Robert Hand's Horoscope Symbols (a bit denser than what I'm used to but I like his writing style) and Steven Forrest's the Inner Sky is a classic introduction.
