About
The History of Astrology and Politics
Astrology and politics have always been intertwined. Western astrology itself was originally developed in Mesopotamia by an elite class of literate scholars who served the kings directly, sending them reports and correspondences of their astrological observations. In the Roman period this tradition was carried on with individual astrologers serving a number of different emperors. In the Medieval period there were court astrologers. Even in modern times astrologers have worked with leaders in the very highest echelons of politics, such as Ronald Reagan’s employment of the astrologer Joan Quigley throughout the course of his political career.
The Purpose of the Political Astrology Blog
The purpose of the Political Astrology Blog is to carry on this long tradition of using astrology to study politics and word leaders. Our agenda is not partisan, but astrological. We seek to discover and point out the important astrological correlations that are mirroring the political world on a daily basis, thus helping to expand our understanding of how astrology and politics work, while at the same time showing the world how astrology can be used as a useful tool for political speculation.
Indeed, astrology itself is the world’s greatest spectator sport, and our goal is to share some of our observations with you, the reader.
