The Moment of Astrology: Origins in Divination

This is one of the most important astrological books of our time. It not only reshapes the view of astrology that astrologers might have; it challenges the entire notion of what constitutes knowing and knowledge in our civilisation. It shows that astrology is not only important in and of itself, but also for what it reveals about the nature of truth and our experience in general. (Robert Hand). For those who fear that returning astrology to its rightful home in divination, will result in a puddle of formless mud and fluffiness, Cornelius will suggest to you that this fear is groundless: ＂It is important to note that poetic and protean though the symbolism is, our astrology is not to be reduced to a matter of hunches and intuitions. Part of its work is a rational inference from conventional significations given by the tradition of astrology, and capable of quite exact craft discrimination.＂
