Alan Leo was a prominent British astrologer, author, publisher and theosophist. He is often referred to as "the father of modern astrology". His work stimulated a revival of astrology in the Western world after its decline at the end of the 17th century. Leo was a devout theosophist and he worked many of its religious concepts such as karma and reincarnation into his astrology. He used the Theosophical Society's vast international connections to publish, translate and disseminate his work across Europe and America. Towards the end of his life, in 1909, and again in 1911, Leo travelled with his wife to India where he studied Indian astrology. As a result of his studies in India, he later attempted to incorporate portions of Indian astrology into the western astrological model. Review: "Not really for readers looking for a book on casual, "sun-sign" astrology, though they can probably get a lot of good, basic information from this book. However, anyone who is serious about studying astrology will have to read all of Alan Leo's books at some point, and this is the volume to read first". "He is considered the father of modern astrology: Alan Leo opened up the secrets of divination by the stars to the general public in the early 20th century with a popular line of astrology manuals that set off a craze for horoscopes that continues to this day. Here, in this replica of the 1910 fourth edition of his essential primer, Leo teaches us. . the basics of astronomy required for an understanding of astrology".
