When you think of astrology, you may think of the horoscope section in your local paper, or of Nancy Reagan's consultations with an astrologer in the White House in the 1980s. Yet almost every religion uses some form of astrology: some way of thinking about the sun, moon, stars, and planets and how they hold significance for human lives on earth. Astrology and Cosmology in the World’s Religions offers an accessible overview of the astrologies of the world's religions, placing them into context within theories of how the wider universe came into being and operates. Campion traces beliefs about the heavens among peoples ranging from ancient Egypt and China, to Australia and Polynesia, and India and the Islamic world. Addressing each religion in a separate chapter, Campion outlines how, by observing the celestial bodies, people have engaged with the divine, managed the future, and attempted to understand events here on earth. This fascinating text offers a unique way to delve into comparative religions and will also appeal to those intrigued by New Age topics.

Sleeve Notes from Brazilian Edition We see in the present century, after its relative decline in European societies in the seventeenth century, a return of astrology in modern urban centres, where the number of astrological consultants increases and the newspapers publish 'horoscopes' with predictions for the natives of each Sun sign. Astrology, the ancient divinatory system which has been experiencing growing popularity in large Brazilian cities in recent years, has rarely received attention in the social sciences. This book analyses the beliefs and cultural constructions of their world in a group of individuals belonging to the middle classes in Rio and involved in the use of astrology. By means of research and interviews, the author, approaching the urban middle classes, takes the following question as his hypothesis: to what extent can we say that astrology contributes to the construction of [a] particular lifestyle? The author begins his analysis from the main principles of the symbolic system of astrology and its divinatory practice, attempting to show that, in the same way as the structure of myth investigated by Levi-Strauss, the structure of this system remains constant across its various versions. Despite this stability throughout its history, it is capable of receiving several different social appropriations. In the case of interest here, it is the appropriation made of it among sectors of the urban middle class in Rio de Janeiro, for whom psychotherapy is already an influence, and whose views are analysed in detail in the last chapter. Relating itself to varying degrees with psychoanalysis and religion, astrology shows itself to be a symbolic language capable of engaging the fragmentation of modern daily life. Thus it becomes clear that this little-known phenomenon of contemporary culture cannot be reduced to a mere irrational survival. This book is an original contribution to the study of the middle classes in Brazil, and of astrology as an "alternative culture," an area little studied by the social sciences. In addition to discussing the classics and more recent anthropological works on the subject, the author examines the ambiguous relation which modernity has with astrology: 'arising in its very heart, it presents a discourse marked by criticism of the values of modernity'. Complementing this volume, the reader will find a glossary explaining astrological terms in Appendix 2. About the Author Luis Rodolfo da Paixao Vilhena took his Master's degree in Social Anthropology in the Postgraduate Programme in Social Anthropology of the National Museum (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, UFRJ). He was a researcher at the National Institute of Folklore (FUNARTE), 1988-1989, where he studied the history of Folklore Studies in Brazil and was a lecturer at UERJ and of the Faculty Veiga de Almeida. He died in 1997.

I titled my book as The Chaotic World of Astrology. The "chaotic" trend accelerated in early 1980s with the emergence of comprehensive astrology software. They became a turning point for astrology in practice in that the cumbersome calculations to erecting astrology charts that took hours by hand, along with all sorts of tables and other tools, were now all taken over by software. Millions of casual astrologers in 1980s were now able, within minutes, to erect charts for any occasion, outlining the natal potentials of family and friends, predicting relationships and outcome of events. They became aware of the business potential of these software. Bored housewives and enterprising individuals purchased the software and began advertising in local papers, for $25 each, for natal, relationships, and predictive transit charts for anyone. The activity spread like a wildfire and enveloped the world. Astrology organizations such as the (oldest) American Federation of Astrologers (AFA) experienced an explosive growth in membership and certification fees. Everything connected to astrology became so lucrative that other organizations and book publishers specializing only in astrology and metaphysical topics emerged. Magazines such as Dell Horoscope, American Astrology and others flourished. Ads from book publishers, mineral collectors and everyone with metaphysical claims filled their pages. People selling minerals with various mental and physical cure claims joined the stampede. Astrology conventions filled the convention centers in Washington, D.C. and other big cities periodically, so people could get to know one another and market themselves and their wares. Unlike religions to which people adhered by faith alone, astrology offered something more concrete and more powerful: neatly tabulated data and colorful graphical charts together with the accompanying delineations of what this all meant. People could supposedly verify the predictions in their own lives. They believed they had on hand a blueprint from heavens, the key to unravel the mysteries of life. In contrast to general predictions in newspapers and magazines, that applied to all persons in the same sun sign, here the charts are done for YOU only. This was such a powerful stuff that people lost their common sense and started to believe and perpetuate all astrological claims as if they were receiving this insight directly from heavens. Astrologers felt themselves at the forefront of science. Of course, the majority of people were still nonbelievers, among them pragmatic people who dismissed astrology outright, and open-minded people who allowed some truth about astrology and accepted it as an entertaining social pastime without getting involved in the intricacies. These in the latter group were the potential customers whom the astrologers believed they could convert, so as to sell more charts, books and software. As far as pragmatic skeptics, their dismissal of astrology did not quite qualify them as "sensible," for many of these same people accepted and actively sought salvation from religion, arguably a much more consequential, and to some, a form of superstition. Be as it may, from 1986 to 1993, I was the only "astrologer" who knew the nitty-gritty of astrology and incessantly warned about its use, yes, while also making money from it to finance my time and effort. I present the material in this book in 5 parts: 1) a summary of controversial issues; 2) critical papers and studies, including a comprehensive review of dubious astrology tools, I performed and mailed-no email yet in those days-to astrologers worldwide, many of which I reduced to one-page monthly "warning" ads in "American Astrology" magazine; 3) applied (credible) astrology, 4) sample output of traditional astrological analyses, and my comments on them, by my own software AsterPro, and 5) suggested research reinforced by output from AsterPro.

Is Pluto a planet? Or a dwarf planet? The controversy rages. But this planet, on the fringes of our solar system, has immense astrological significance, unexplored by the Vedic and Western astrologers. Author and scientific astrologer Greenstone Lobo believes Pluto symbolises destruction and regeneration-as the mythological Rudra Shiva. In a scary and uncertain world-on the edge because of a pandemic, economic crises, ecological disasters and pandemonium in politics, Lobo looks towards Pluto to make sense of the past, present and the future. He describes the planet's journey over the last 250 and the next fifty years, as well as the grand scale on which it can operate. Exploring its character and impact, Lobo discusses his techniques for predictions, the cyclical nature of Pluto, how it changed the world order and its relationship with astrological signs. From his unique insider's perspective-as someone familiar with the ways of Pluto through his research-Lobo predicts what to expect and how to prepare for it through 91 predictions. What will the next fifty years bring? When will the world see the last of the pandemic? Who will lead India next? Can India win the next Cricket World Cup? What does the future hold for Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt? What lies in store for star kids Suhana Khan, Hrehaan Roshan, Aarav Akshay Kumar and Aaradhya Bachchan? What about Messi, Angelina Jolie, Rihanna, Beyoncé and others who hold our imagination today? Through these predictions of good fortune and disasters, scandals and affairs, readers will gain an intimate sense of the rogue planet and its centrality to astrology.

Astrology of the World II: Revolutions & History is the second in a trilogy of translations in traditional mundane astrology, from Latin and Arabic astrologers. This volume focuses on astrological views of history, Saturn-Jupiter conjunctions, and interpreting mundane ingresses. After an extensive Introduction with numerous charts and tables to help the modern reader, Part 1 provides short summaries and principles from medieval authors. Part 2 includes three works by Masha'allah (one from Arabic) on ingresses and conjunctional theory, as well as a lengthy work attributed to Abu Ma'shar which includes chart examples from Sahl. Part 3 contains a new translation of Abu Ma'shar's Flowers, with some corrections to the medieval text based on Arabic manuscripts. Finally, Part 4 contains a complete translation, from Arabic, of the mundane book of al-Rijal's (Haly Abenragel's) Book of the Skilled in the Judgments of the Stars. In Appendices, Dr. Benjamin Dykes provides modern tables of mean Saturn-Jupiter conjunctions as well as Saturn-Mars conjunctions in Cancer, and translations (from Arabic) of several mundane chart examples from Sahl b. Bishr, with historical commentary. Throughout, Dr. Dykes provides helpful introductory comments and analysis to aid the modern reader in this complex subject.
