Rabbi Avraham Ben Meir Ibn Ezra (1089-1164) was a renowned Jewish
scholar, whose accomplishments and prolific writing encompassed
Biblical exegeses, Hebrew grammar, personal, national and
liturgical poetry, philosophy, mathematics, geometry, astronomy and
Astrology. In mainstream Judaism he is known and loved to this day
mainly for his Bible commentary and his poetry, whereas to the
Christian European world he was introduced through his astrological
and scientific works. The Book of Nativities (Sefer Ha'Moladot) is
Meira Epstein's third publication in the series of English
translations of Avraham Ibn Ezra's astrological works. The other
two are The Beginning of Wisdom (Reshit Hokhma), 1998, and The Book
of Reasons (Sefer Ha'Te'amim), 1994. Together, these three, written
by Ibn Ezra in this sequence, make one integral body of the
astrological doctrine: Introduction of the fundamentals, further
theoretical explanations, the application to the individual birth
chart and prognosis work. Moladot is a prime example of Ibn Ezra's
approach to astrology, in which he combines his Jewish religious
beliefs and his philosophical principles with down-to-earth
astrological doctrine and techniques.
