	Astrology history in Egypt (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Astrology’s history is a long one, and common belief is that its origins lie with the Greeks.
		The Egyptian influence will be discussed shortly; but first, it will be very helpful to describe the history of astrology up to the point that the Egyptians became involved.
		Astrology is the pseudoscientific study of the influence those heavenly bodies and their movements have on humankind.) Astrology as we, or even the ancient Greeks, would consider it did not exist at this time.

	Astrology: Between Religion and the Empirical
		The Babylonian star-cult is the core and the archetype of subsequent astrology.
		Astrology is thus thoroughly capable, by nature, of comfortably adapting its world view to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; for the creator god of these religions, who created the world, also created the heavenly bodies and their gods.
		In many astrology schools as well, astrology is taught by way of esoteric doctrines, whereby it is often just a matter of very general references or fragmentary allusions to "karma" and "rebirth." A binding form of esoteric astrology in the form of a clearly defined doctrine is hardly discernable here.

	Astrology at RIN.ru. History. Egyptian Astrology
		The belief that the Egyptians originated astrology is an ancient one and was propagated by the ancient Greeks, who should have known better.
		The earliest Egyptian calendar was based on a year beginning and ending with the annual flooding of the Nile, the most important event in the agricultural year.
		Egyptian astronomy and mathematics was relatively simple compared to Mesopotamian, and this is one reason why the Egyptians never developed their own astrology.

		Nevertheless, until the introduction of Persian astrology predictions concerning the future of individuals was more dependant on determining the festival that the person was born on and whether this was a "lucky" or "unlucky" day.
		Astrology, as a foreign discipline, may potentially be classified in the category of an outside influence that contributed to the decline of Egyptian wisdom.
		Thus we see that astrology is a tool showing the synchronic patterns and flow of energy that link the individual to all that is. Once an understanding of this pattern develops the initiate is able to use this knowledge to time rituals for greater efficiency.

		Bastet, goddess with the body of a woman and face of a cat swinging between good and bad tendencies, appears late in Egyptian religion, though the symbolism of the cat is prehistoric.
		The most illustrious of Egyptian goddesses, in her capacity for love and redemption, finds the strength to take under her wings and protects all those who are about to perish coldly for lack of faith in the wild generosity of the vital spirits.
		According to Egyptian legend, the goddess Nut, in spite of the curse of sterility pronounced upon her by Ra, is able to bear Osiris thanks to the help of the god Thoth, who side-stepped his judgement by inventing five extra days in the year.

	ASTRONOMY in Ancient Egypt
		One of the hardest tasks of the modern Egyptologist is to attempt to tie together, in some sort of chronological order, the pieces of evidence from burials, tombs, temples, archaeological excavations and a range of other sources.
		From as early as the Middle Kingdom, the Egyptians recognised five of the planets: Jupiter ("Horus who limits two lands"), Mars ("Horus of the horizon", or "Horus the red"), Mercury (Sebegu, a god associated with Seth), Saturn ("Horus, bull of the sky") and Venus ("the one who crosses", or "god of the morning").
		The Egyptians portrayed the planets as deities sailing across the heavens in barques, and they were known as the "stars that know no rest".

		century, the followed assertion that astrology is a pseudo-science and numerous unsuccessful attempts to squeeze an astrology into the new scientific paradigm.
		One of such fundamental basis of an astrology is the system of terms--the division of an ecliptic onto 60 unequal sectors by 5 sectors per each sign of the zodiac--and the major Egyptian years directly following from terms, as it was supposed till now.
		The mean square deviation of the calculated years from the settled by the ancient Egyptian astronomers is found within the tolerance of the error of the ancient methods of determination of rising time of the sectors on ecliptic.

	THE ROUND ZODIAC CEILING OF THE TEMPLE OF HATHOR AT DENDERAH
		The astrological zodiac is essentially identical to the ancient Egyptian decan zodiac, which used a schema of 36 10° divisions to measure a year.
		There is no evidence that the Egyptian decan zodiac was used for divination or genethlialogy; however, the Cairo Calendar provides evidence of a belief in that certain days were lucky or unlucky according to astral influences.
		Egyptians believed that some stars were dangerous or hostile, while others afforded people protection and bestowed blessings.

	HERMETIC ASTROLOGY: A brief look at its history, concepts and theories (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The origin of Hermetic Astrology goes back to Ancient Egypt where it was practiced by the priesthood as secret knowledge.
		Astrology was regarded as an exact science due to the contributions of Greek astronomers, such as Heraclides, Erastosthanes and Aristarchus who discovered that the Earth revolves around the Sun.
		Hermetic astrology acquired its theological bent under the influence of Chaldean Astrology which originated in Mesopotamia, and the philosophy of the Stoics which posits The Divine Will as the underlying principle of the Universe.

		The names were given to the constellations by the Ancient Egyptians and were directly tied to the natural observations of their repetitive life activity cycles throughout the year.
		Needless to say they were more spiritually evolved than people of the present and could from their observations deduce much finer things than the grossly materially minded of the present.
		Bearing in mind that the birth of the names of the zodiac was Egyptian then the particulars of the physical environment inclusive of seasonal and natural phenomenon figure prominently in the final system.

	History
		The reason for making this very specific definition of "astrology as we know it" is that in a broader sense some kind of astrology is nearly universal among ancient peoples and is not limited to either one time or place as its point of origin.
		The Egyptians were masters of aligning buildings, temples and especially the pyramids to fixed stars, apparently in an effort to bring about sympathy between terrestrial structures and the stars with which they were associated.
		The critical factors in the fusion of Egyptian ideas with Babylonian astronomy was one or both of two historical events, the conquest of Egypt by Persia, and the conquest of both Persia and Egypt by Alexander the Great.

		All of the Egyptian texts that are referred to in the later literature seem to have been written in Greek.
		While we do not insist that Hindu astrology is entirely or even principally an offshoot of Hellenistic astrology, it must be said that the required period of isolation did occur which could have caused a single tradition to become two.
		While Arab era astrology clearly owes a large debt to Hellenistic astrology, it is also clear that in the two or three centuries between the last known Hellenistic astrologers and the first known Arab era ones, something new had come into the stream.

		This is significant because although the gods are not yet associated with a specific planet or constellation, the gods of Egypt established the power of stars over earth.
		The Egyptian zodiac recognized many of the same basic constellations but they were in different shapes than the ones common today.
		The symbols were found in the second room of the temple roof at Denderah.

		For example, as is evidenced by the papyrus Cairo Calendar, during the season of Emergence, it was the advisement of the Seers (within the priestly caste), and the omens of certain animals they saw, which devised whether a specific date would be favorable or unfavorable.
		The rituals that the Egyptians partook of to keep away evil spirits from possessing an animal consisted of sacrifice to magic, however, it was the seers and the astrologers who guided many of the Egyptians and their daily routines.
		Hence, the origin of Egyptians worshipping animals, has more to do with the rituals to displace evil spirits, and their astrological system, more so than it does to actually worshipping animals.

	ANCIENT ASTROLOGY RESEARCH
		The enormous stone pyramid complex is testimony to how much the Egyptians and ancient civilizations in general valued their star religions, as it took great effort and diligence to construct huge stone monuments built with the stars in mind.
		In the Egyptian Osiris myth, he was killed by his brother and torn into 14 pieces; then resurrected by his sister/wife Isis (after she conceived their son Horus), to become lord of the underworld and Egyptian judge of the dead.
		One wonders how "primitives" such as the ancient Greeks, Romans or Egyptians could possibly calculate down to such high degree of accuracy, things such as the motion of the Moon on 1-1-4713 BC to 14 degrees/day (almost to the minute!), and the separation of Saturn from the longitude of Sirius by 19.45 minutes of arc.

		Most of our understanding of Egyptian astrology is contained within the Cairo Calendar, which consists of a listing of all the days of an Egyptian year.
		Unlike modern astrology as found within newspapers, where one can choose whether to follow the advice there in or not, the Egyptians strictly adhered to what an astrologer would advise.
		As is evidenced by the papyrus of the Cairo Calendar, on days where there were adverse or favorable conditions, if the astrologers told a person not to go outside, not to bathe, or to eat fish on a particular day, such advice was taken very literally and seriously.

		It was an encyclopedia of cosmogony, astrology and magic, of which we have citations from the fourteenth book.
		As I have traced a line of demarcation between Greek and Arabic astrology, I believe I ought to indicate the Arabic treatises which were translated into Latin for the use of astrologers by the sixteenth century and where the latter were tangled in and contaminated with the genuine Greek tradition.
		As for modern works on Greek astrology, there have been none of note since the classic book of Saumaise, the first -- after Scaliger's commentary on Manilius -- and the last effort of independent learning, used to understand astrology without believing in it and without the goal, or the main goal, of refuting it.
