Produktbeschreibung

Star Prophets explores the profound influence of astrology, religious prophecy, and celestial predictions on historical events and belief systems. It argues that astrology was not merely a fringe practice but a critical framework for understanding the world, impacting political decision-making and religious thought in ancient cultures. The book delves into how astrologers advised leaders, interpreted divine will, and shaped events like the rise and fall of dynasties.

The book presents three main themes: the development of astrological systems in ancient civilizations such as Mesopotamia and Egypt, case studies of historical events influenced by astrological predictions, and the long-term impact of astrological beliefs on Western and Eastern thought. Drawing upon ancient texts and archaeological findings, Star Prophets reconstructs the worldviews of astrologers and their patrons across time.

The book is structured into three parts, starting with the core concepts of ancient astrology, followed by case studies of astrologically influenced events, and concluding with the enduring legacy of astrology on various fields. This book navigates the complex interplay between astrology and human agency, offering insights into the ethical and philosophical implications of these beliefs.

By focusing on pre-modern astrology, Star Prophets provides a balanced and scholarly analysis of historical evidence, appealing to those interested in the history of science, religion, and the impact of belief systems on civilization.
