In the Divine Comedy Dante tells the story of a pilgrim (himself)
who is guided through the realms of the dead - Hell, Purgatory and
Paradise - and the lessons about fortune and destiny that he learns
along the way. This medieval work is of great interest to modern
astrologers. Although astrologers, along with diviners and
magicians, were placed in Hell, Dante's great poem is full of
astrology; the poem's redemptive journey contains frequent
references to the four elements, the four angles formed by the
Ascendant and Meridian, and the planets and stars of astrology.
This book offers the reader an understanding of Dante's vast
cosmology within the poem's moral, spiritual and dramatic contexts;
it is an especially valuable resource for those interested in the
intersection of cosmology or astrology and spirituality. The final
section of this book explores Inferno 20 and discusses the
relationship of astrological practice to that of divination, magic,
and prophecy. We see that Dante's astrology is an expression of
nature (and super-nature) that is ordered but subject to change,
and, in the earthly realm, subject to decline and the need for
regeneration. There are specific philosophical traditions
underpinning The Divine Comedy's astrology - are these traditions
also within modern astrology? We find that astrology itself, like
Dante's great poem, also dwells between the turnings of personal
Fortune and the purposeful universe of Providence.

universal nature of each soul's unique identity; Isis, bonding

and festivals. difficult Cairo Calendar Papyri, one of the few
surviving documents detailing the system by which Egyptians
organized their daily lives. Wheeler's accompanying interpretation
of the Egyptian cosmos makes a lively counterpart to the horoscope,
clarifying the often confusing material. Together, Wheeler and
Pierce provide a modern evaluation of how to walk like an Egyptian,
attuned to eternity in your daily life and guided by eternal
principles.
