ASTROLOGY
The most renowned, complete course in astrology ever to appear, the Alan Leo Astrologer’s Library has become the undisputed source for self instruction in astrology.
This complete and comprehensive analysis of the horoscope gives full descriptions of every position in the nativity, making it possible for any individual to interpret a natal chart. It shows the student where to find indications in the horoscope for finance, travel, environment, enterprise, sickness, marriage, legacies, philosophy, profession, friends, occultism, and a host of other interests. Here is the master astrologer’s easy to follow method for chart delineation and interpretation--a must for the beginner as well as an essential reference for the advanced astrologer.
Alan Leo (born William Allan), lived from 1860 to 1917. He was an outstanding astrologer, but much more than that, he was an organizer and proselytizer for the art. He took the many existing pieces (those of Raphael, Zadkiel, A.J. Pierce, W.J. Simmonite, etc.) and brought them into a coherent mass. To him, and him alone, we owe the revival of astrology in the 20th century. He founded two magazines, The Astrologer's Magazine, (1890-94), as well as the celebrated Modern Astrology. He wrote numerous books & printed those of his friends, among them Sepharial, H.S. Green, Charubel, and many others.
He was a Theosophist, as were almost all the leading intellectuals of his time and founded the Astrological Lodge of the Theosophical Society. Leo was famous in his day & twice attracted the attention of the authorities. He was accused and acquitted of fortune-telling in 1914. He was again accused in 1917, losing in July of that year. He was fined some 25 Pound Sterling (about $2500 in current money). Weeks later he was dead from a stroke. Some think the strain of the second legal case brought on his death. The young Charles Carter was his successor.
The impact of his first court case was far-reaching. Advised by counsel that predicting vague generalities would spare him further legal harassment, in the last years of his life he turned from "event oriented astrology" to character description & psychological tendencies which led to the astro-psychology of the present day.
