### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    treasure of ancient astrology
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 9, 2010*

I thought that the translations were pretty good and easy to follow. Bear in mind, this is ancient event-oriented astrology. Buy the Arkana Dictionary of Astrology by Fred Gettings as a companion to this book. Some of the foot notes explain the less well known astrological terms. It is presumed that the original text was written sometime in the 7th century, but the author is not sure. All in all a treasure to have, especially if you are interested in classical astrology and/or the ancient history of astrology.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Classic source on early astrology
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 12, 2016*

Rhetorius made a compendium of useful material from earlier writers. About half preserves the Treasury of Antiochus of Athens, which sets out the basic elements of astrology. The rest, from a variety of sources, deals with natal interpretation. Chapter 54 is particularly interesting: preliminary considerations before interpreting a horoscope. Rhetorius is one of the main sources for ancient astrology, after Valens and Dorotheus. The translation is excellent, without the confusing "translationese" one finds in the work of non-astrologers (Pingree) or eccentric amateurs (Schmidt).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
