Heart Astrology

I have recently received my Certified Medieval Astrologer degree from Astrologos. A friend who I told asked me, what is Medeival astrology and how does it differ from regular astrology?

Medieval astrology is astrology as it was practiced from around 800 A.D. to 1600 A.D. in Europe and the Near East. This time period combined the techniques of the Egyptian Temple astrologers, Greek Astrologers, Indian Astrologers and Persian Astrologers into a unified system. It is considered to have begun with [wikipop]Abu Mashar[/wikipop], who started using methods of giving dignity and debility to planets in a weighted score to establish how they would function in a chart. He was a prolific writer of Astrological texts, laid the founding stone for the city of Baghdad, and had an astrological college amongst other things. Following him, noted thinkers of the tradition included Abu Ma’sar, Al Kindi, Omar of Tiberias, Al-biruni, Guido Bonatti, Antonious de Montulmo, Abraham Ibn Ezra, and Johannes Schoener.
