The stars and their movements have
always captivated the human imagination.
In all cultures, people have studied
the sky to learn about the complicated
relationships between celestial bodies
and terrestrial affairs. In all cultures,
too, people have invented elaborate
visual systems to document and organise
their fi ndings on the infl uence of the
planets and stars. Astrology Pictures
provides a rich collection of the most
interesting and compelling astrological
imagery from a wide variety of cultural
traditions. The collection comprises
images and depictions of the planets,
the elements and the zodiac. This book
contains portraits of astrologers both
real and imagined, and a sample of
the visual systems devised to organise
astrological knowledge, such as celestial
maps and hand charts, chosen for
their rarity and their visual impact.
With imagery originating from Egypt,
Japan and China, from both classical
antiquity and the Western tradition,
Astrology Pictures truly provides an
all-encompassing and accessible overview
of a rich and stimulating heritage.
