Excerpt from Book Part 1 The Evolution of Astrology Ancient Stargazers I often wonder if the rudimentary astrological systems practiced in ancient Egypt, Babylon, Sumeria, and China were based on childlike superstition or on an evolved system of information from an earlier unrecorded time lost to us today. There appears to be no answer. We do know that throughout antiquity astrology and astronomy were given equal scientific weight. Some say that Thoth/Hermes, the ancient ibis-headed priest, brought astrology to Egypt from Atlantis. He was venerated as the messenger of the gods, and was said to have written forty-two books of sacred learning, four of which were on astrology. These books were destroyed in Alexandria twice, first by the Romans and then the Christians. No matter how it is presented, the Hermetic wisdom that has come down through the ages signifies mastery through the regeneration of the body, the illumination of the mind, and the transmutation of the emotions. Astrology is one of our oldest and most treasured heritages. In ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt, the written sign for God was a star. From the top of ziggurats Babylonian astrologer-priests observed the stars and recorded their findings on clay tablets. In Britain great astronomer-mathematicians constructed Stonehenge and other stone monuments to track celestial movements. The early Mayans, whose culture dominated the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico from 3113 B.C. until the Spaniards came in the fifteenth century A.D., observed the heavenly bodies from their pyramids and developed a circular astrology chart with animal symbols. One of the best-known references to astrology is recorded in the New Testament. The Book of Matthew tells of three magi (learned astrologer-priests) who followed a large star to find the newborn Jesus. Priests and astronomers in ancient times were educated in astrology and predicted events from the placement of the stars. Their religious practices were centered around solar and lunar movements, and most of their temples were built with this in mind. The word magus means "master." Astrologers today think the magi knew about the convergence of Jupiter, Saturn, and Venus on that night, easily seen by the naked eye and so close together that they looked like one huge star in the night sky. They interpreted its meaning as the reincarnation of a great soul and came with presents to honor the child. Many people in the Western Hemisphere today are not familiar with the Eastern philosophy of reincarnation, the rebirth of the soul into a new body over many lifetimes. According to this belief, we are reborn by Gods grace and given many opportunities to overcome the ignorance and confusion that tripped us up in other lifetimes. This is called self-mastery. Certain beings, after living many lifetimes, attain an evolved state of consciousness and come back to earth to help others. In the sixth century, the Nicene Council in Constantinople banned the theory of reincarnation, so this ancient and meaningful tradition is overlooked in the West. There are many theories as to why it was deleted from the dogma of the church, but it is interesting to note that the concept of reincarnation was alive at the time of the early Christian disciples. In Asia it is not unusual to hear of great beings -- people advanced in spiritual studies -- visiting a great soul at birth. There was a star at Krishnas birth, and he was visited by the Great Ones. When the last Dalai Lama died, three Tibetan lamas, or monks, one of whom was an astrologer, followed particular portents and signs that ultimately revealed to them the identity of the newly reincarnated Dalai Lama. The origins of astrology are lost in prehistory. It almost seems as though astrology came into the world fully formed. There are differences from culture to culture, but they are slight. Astrology may have come to us from an ancient age that the Egyptians call the First Time. This was when great beings or sages walked the earth and taught people how to live in their time realm, the eternal present. Perhaps astrology was a part of the teachings of these godlike beings. Astrology was brought to the West when Alexander the Great conquered Sumeria and Chaldea in 280 s.c. The astronomers of Alexandria discovered an enormous number of ancient clay tablets that we are still interpreting today. Alexanders military exploits gave birth to a civilization that was part Greek and part Asian. He always had Hindu yogis as part of his entourage and many were astrologers. The Hindu system of astrology is said to be at least five thousand years old. The Chaldeans had been recording lunar and solar eclipses and the movement of the planets from ancient times -- for "four hundred thousand years," according to their tradition. Their ability to track astral movements far exceeded their scientific understanding. It was the Greeks who fine-tuned the daily movements of the planets with their own expert calculations and added their mystical panorama of gods (which they had "borrowed" from the Egyptians) to create the charts we have today. Mythology is probably based on the lives of important people in prediluvian times. If our world were wiped out by some great catastrophe, would people living far in the future cast Madonna as Venus and Sylvester Stallone as Mars? We can only wonder. The Chaldeans did charts only for the king or when important events occurred. The Greeks saw every reason to chart the birth of individuals (very democratic!). To this day, astrology is primarily lunar in the East and solar in the West. A lunar chart is based on the position of the Moon at birth, whereas a solar chart is derived from the position of the Sun. Again, this difference comes to us from the Greeks, who, perhaps influenced by Alexander and his sojourns into Egypt where the sun god was prominent, saw the individualistic and dynamic symbol of the Sun as the empowering body. Baghdad, the largest seat of learning in the Middle Ages, linked astrologer-priests in India, China, Babylon, and Persia with the scholars of Spain, Italy, and Greece, preserving the teachings of the early Chaldeans and Greeks. This confluence of knowledge created a rich heritage of spiritual, philosophic, and intellectual truths we can still draw on today. Many famous people have used astrology as a tool. In ancient Persia, Zoroaster, a priest who flourished 258 years before the conquest of Alexander the Great, became renowned for his practice of astrology. A reformer and prophet, he created a religion that influenced Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. In China, emperors were chosen because of their astrological knowledge. In Greece, astrology flourished at the highest period of its culture and power, a period that most influences our culture today. Astrologers in ancient times were great mathematicians and astronomers. Most of them were also occultists or alchemists who had the benefit of manuscripts that have been destroyed or just dropped out of sight. Tragically, much of their knowledge was never recorded and has been forgotten. Great thinkers such as Pythagoras, Plato, and Aristotle used astrological principles in their philosophies. Pythagoras created an intellectual tradition of mystical wisdom that deeply influenced the development of classical Greek philosophy and medieval European thought. He was particularly interested in the influence of astrology and numbers as they affected all human endeavors. Copernicus acknowledged Pythagorean concepts in his hypothesis that the earth and the other planets rotate in orbits around the sun. The philosopher Plato, who lived in Greece around 360 B.C., saw the universe as a celestial sphere composed of a single substance, a composite of Sameness and Difference, mixed with Existence. Hippocrates, a contemporary of Plato and traditionally regarded as the father of medicine, declared that a doctor who did not use astrology to aid him in making a diagnosis and prescribing a remedy deserved to be called a fool! Aristotle, influenced by Plato, added cause and effect, a more rational approach to heavenly cycles. These ideas formed the basis for astrology until psychology took the reins in the twentieth century. In medieval times, Arabic scientific texts and Greek manuscripts were translated into Latin; among these were astrology texts from ancient times. The Renaissance poet Dante, author of The Divine Comedy, credited his Sun sign, Gemini, for his eloquence. Two centuries later, Nostradamus, physician and astrologer to three French kings, wrote predictions for the future disguised in verses that are still being unraveled today. His projections were based on the movements of the planets and visions he saw emanating from a fiery pot. John Dee, astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I, picked the date for her coronation according to the alignment of the stars. Her powerful reign of forty-four years proved his expertise at selecting a propitious time. Most astrologers in Europe were members of secret societies: the Masons, the Knights Templar, the Rosicrucians, and the Golden Dawn Society. The early American statesmen who wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights were also members of secret societies. Powerful people have always sought help from the stars, though they often prefer not to make that information public. Royalty, heads of government, clergy, and presidents of the United States often have their own personal astrologers. Yet the profession of astrology is not without its disadvantages and the probability of falling from grace.
