Synopsis
Astrology in a Nutshell is a wonderful guide to the interesting world of astrology and horoscopes written by Carl Webber. For readers not familiar with astrology, it is a system of divination based on the relationship between human lives and astronomical phenomenon. Some readers might be aware, instead, of horoscopes which assign unique qualities to individuals born under specific signs. Horoscopes also claim to predict future events in the lives of individuals based on astronomical phenomenon.
This book offers a wealth of information on astrology for individuals interested in both the history of astrology and the divination practices as they developed through the ages. Beginning in the second millennium BCE, astrology originated as a calendar system which was used to predict the changes and conditions of the seasons. Astrology was also used at an early age to interpret celestial cycles which many learned scholars believed to be signs of divine communications. While originally touted as a scientific system for the evaluation of life and natural phenomenon, as science advanced, astrology lost its academic standing, and now is perceived primarily as entertainment more so than as a technically scientific approach to forecasting.
Astrology in a Nutshell is a comprehensive and entertaining book about the history and art of astrology written by Carl Webber. This book is an interesting read for individuals interested in astrology, astronomy, divination, spirituality, and the history of astrology. This book also provides a lot of entertainment value for readers interested in exploring the art of utilizing astrology as a way to understand themselves, the people in their life and the world around them.
