Uncover history through the lens of advanced astrological technique with Astrology Looks at History, a compelling collection that showcases astrology at its most rigorous and revelatory. Published by Llewellyn, this book focuses on rectification—the challenging art of determining a birth time (and sometimes even a birth date) by working backward through documented life events.
Rectification demands mastery, intuition, and deep theoretical knowledge. In this volume, six accomplished astrologers apply this sophisticated method to some of Western history’s most influential and enigmatic figures, revealing how planetary patterns align with genius, power, upheaval, and destiny.
Inside, you’ll explore:
✨ Rectification as a high-level astrological skill and investigative art
✨ How life events validate planetary placements and timing
✨ Astrology’s role in testing historical narratives and assumptions
✨ The credibility of astrology when applied to real-world history
The book features fascinating case studies, including:
William Shakespeare — a reassessment of his birth data and a provocative look at his death
Niccolò Machiavelli — astrology and political survival in turbulent times
Jack the Ripper & the Creation of the World — Nicholas Campion on astrology’s symbolic and historical reach
Benjamin Franklin — inventor, revolutionary, diplomat, and prolific romantic
Abraham Lincoln — personal destiny intertwined with a nation in formation
Nelson Mandela — astrology as a measure of legacy, struggle, and future impact
Contributors include Maurice McCann, Basil T. Fearrington, Nicholas Campion, Tim Lyons, Marc Penfield, and Noel Tyl—each bringing a distinct voice and methodological strength to the craft.
