Description
The technique known today as primary directions is one of the most ancient and renowned methods of astrological forecasting. For centuries, it has been used by the great names of western astrology, including Dorotheus, Ptolemy, Masha'allah, Abu Ma'shar, Regiomontanus, Placidus, Morin de Villefranche, and William Lilly. This comprehensive study explains the principles of primary directions in an accessible form, illustrating them with practical examples. It draws on original source texts to outline the historical origins and development of the technique, showing how it has been reinterpreted and occasionally misunderstood. A full glossary and appendices are included, providing a complete resource for students of traditional astrology. The craft of the Old Masters can still be learnt through this book, which provides a clear and practical guide to primary directions.
