Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Astrology is an ancient science that uses observation of the planetary cycles and movements over time to record patterns and events triggered by the movement of the cosmos. It is often said to be based on calendrical systems, but I would suggest that calendrical systems are based on the movement of the cosmic bodies.

#2 The history of astrology can be traced back to the Sumerians in Mesopotamia 6,000 years ago, who noted the movements of the cosmos. From around 2,400 to 331 BCE, the Babylonians, also known as the Chaldeans, created the zodiac wheel with planets.

#3 Modern western astrology is focused on the psychological and humanistic side, though there is a resurgence in some more ancient and predictive techniques, especially among younger astrologers. The gender assignments of planets and signs are problematic in the modern world.

#4 Astrology has been popular among leaders, rulers, and famous people for centuries. It has been used to predict the timing of coronations and important decisions.
