Astrology (Library of Esoterica)

"Astrology", part of TASCHEN's Library of Esoterica series, delves into the rich history of astrology, tracing its roots from ancient Mesopotamia to its enduring influence on art, literature, and psychology.

Edited by Jessica Hundley, the book explores the symbology of over 400 images, ranging from Egyptian temples and illuminated manuscripts to contemporary art by the likes of Alphonese Mucha, Hilma af Klint, and others.

The visual history unfolds in tandem with the movement of celestial bodies and the zodiac wheel.

Interviews with modern astrologers like Robert Hand and Jessica Lanyadoo provide additional insights into the enduring fascination with astrology, making this volume a vibrant celebration of the stars and their impact on our lives.
