The Origins Of Horoscopes 🔮

as an astrologer who has been mesmerized by the cosmos for 10 years, i have come to have an honest disagreeance for horoscopes. although those whimsical columns are what naturally gravitated me to the world of astrology, it is a shame that horoscopes are what seems to come to the average person's mind when they think of the zodiac. it is our personal belief that the fantastical nature of horoscopes overshadow the beauty of astrology. but this made us wonder.... where did horoscopes come from? continue on to learn about, the origins of horoscopes.

Ancient Times

🔮 The Silk Roads: The earliest evidence of horoscopes date back to the 3rd millennium BCE in Mesopotamia.

🔮 Astrology was adopted on the trading routes of The Silk Roads during the Tang Dynasty (705-907 CE).

🔮 Along these trading routes, traders would sell horoscopes as a service to different regions such as Central Asia, the Iranian Plateau, & China.

🔮 China became very fond of horoscopes during this time & adopted them into the framework of Chinese astrology today.

🔮 Chinese horoscopes at this time were derived from the Hellenistic Period of Ancient Greece.

🔮 During this time, it became Chinese tradition that newborn Chinese babies would be given a horoscope upon birth & then throughout pivotal moments in their lives.

🔮 One of the most important astrologers of this time, Abu Ma'shar (8/10/787- 3/9/886), wrote a book called “Book Of Thousands”.

🔮 “Book Of Thousands” (written in 850)

🔮 The book did not survive to today. Remaining fragments show us that the book was a chronology of world history (from Christian, Persian, & Islamic sources) that intended to connect past, present, & future events to the stars. 🔮 The remaining fragments of the book were collected by David Pingree in 1968 & can be found on select scholarly sources online today.

🔮 Astrology became very popular in Medieval Central Asia.

🔮 It was during this time that two types of astrology formed; mathematically-based astrology (what we astrologers go by) & the magical form of astrology (AKA: horoscopes).

The 20th & 21st Century

🔮 Prominent British astrologer, R.H. Naylor (6/9/1889- 1952), was hired by the Sunday Express (a London-based newspaper) to write a horoscope article.

🔮 Naylor was an assistant to the leading British astrologer of the time called Cheiro. 🔮 Cheiro was sought out by many celebrities of the time for his brilliant astrology services to read their natal charts. He was known to have read the palms of such significant figures such as Mark Twain, Grover Cleveland, & Winston Churchill.

🔮 The article was about the birth of Princess Margaret, born August 21, 1930. (a leo beauty)

🔮 The newspaper decided to run a few more articles. In one of the next articles, Naylor predicted that “a British aircraft will be in danger” between October 8th and 15th. On October 5th, British airship R101 crashed outside Paris with 48 of the 54 on board the plane passing away.

🔮 The population became amazed with the incredible prediction Naylor made. The editor then offered Naylor a weekly column & “What The Stars Foretell”, the first ever horoscope column in human history, was born.

🔮 "What The Stars Foretell”

🔮 The column started as advice for people whose birthday fell on each specific week the newspaper article was published. 🔮 By 1937, the article became more grandiose & spoke of “star signs” to relate to a wider audience. 🔮 This was the creation of the term “star signs”.

🔮 From there on, the world caught on to the eye-catching spells of horoscopes & publications from all over the world began to replicate what Naylor created. This is why historically, horoscopes are written by writers assigned to the task of creating a spellbinding horoscope piece & not astrologers.

Well folks, there you have it. Although the roots of horoscopes share soil with the beautiful creation of astrology, they became more of an object of purchase than the art that astrology truly is. I do believe if horoscopes were intended on sharing truth & not appealing to the masses as a means to sell a product, they would hold value to humanity. But in all honesty, if horoscopes remain to just be a tool to spellbind their readers & curate them into consumers, then they hold no good intention to the art of astrology we are so passionate about.

Thank you so much for reading! I appreciate our lil astrology community so much & hope you learned something from this lil trip down astrology lane. 😊

SYNOPSIS !

DAEYONG KWON WAS BORN & RAISED IN SOUTH KOREA. a model since his infancy (more like the family’s cash cow 👀) - dean has always had a CUTE AND HANDSOME face ever since he could babble, and that would get him booked endlessly. guess we could say he’s been working for as long as he can remember.

IN TERMS OF SCHOOL, he graduated from high school (12th year) and went on to university to graduate with a degree in film at the age of twenty-one. daeyong managed to graduate early because he continued his classes either online or in-person—to get school out of the way/over with—during the summer.

SINCE HE’S BEEN MODELING FOR THE LONGEST TIME, he’s been able to do runway and walk for prestigious fashion designers across the globe - be it in new york, milan, paris, or wherever, he’s happy to walk and bring light to those big or small. he knows that some people gravitate towards him / has a level of power to bring attention to whatever means A LOT to him. but he means well !

THIS KID DOESN’T HAVE A BAD BONE IN HIS BODY. he’s the Softest Boi™ on the planet and a little too pure (well, not that pure) for his own good. he’s too kind sometimes and maybe he knows that often people use his kindness against him, but he simply does not care at the same time. his parents, on the other hand, are something else. unfortunately.

HE’S BEEN ABLE TO SURROUND HIMSELF WITH GOOD PEOPLE, anyhow. he has a good heart and is grateful for those around him, especially a particular handful — his friend group, to be exact, whom he chooses to keep close to his ‹3 [heart]. no matter how busy life can get, dean’s the one (1) friend who will be there for you through thick and thin.

AFTER BEING IN SEVERAL FILMS, he still considers himself a rookie actor despite making a name for himself outside of modeling. daeyong feels like he hasn’t gotten on a level that he’s always strived for and has so much to learn.

THE MIDDLE CHILD OF HIS FAMILY. well, sort of? daeyong has an older sibling and two (2) younger siblings—the 4th is less than 8teen years old. in his mother & father’s eyes, dean’s the only one that could do wrong? while his siblings don’t? he is estranged from his parents but not from his siblings. it’s the messiest situation and he loathes it. doesn’t talk about his parents at all and never brings them up in conversations either.

TRIES TO KEEP HIS PRIVATE LIFE AWAY FROM PRYING EYES. dude is so quiet sometimes; you might think he’s an orphan or something. he might as well be with how his parents are acting. there have been rumors here and there, but he doesn’t bother saying a word, clearing the air, nothing. daeyong really tries to keep his life as mysterious as possible. even if he’s the most endearing boy on the planet.

FOR A SUPPOSED ROOKIE (in his own words), daeyong feels like he has a lot of potential in the acting world, even if he’s just a boy with a pretty face. he has only been in a few handful of flicks and chooses them carefully, but isn’t too fearful to venture out of his comfort zone. he finds auditions to be incredibly exhilarating but also nerve-wracking. he’s an odd boy with mood swings, let’s be honest.

i’ve never been able to write mean characters (afab/men specifically), so please accept and love my sweet / soft boi with open arms... because i’ve got nothing else to say.

WANTED CONNECTIONS !

mentor (???!!!)

ex-girlfriend or current (something cute for once, maybe? or angsty? fluff?)

will they, won’t they (might be fun, i don’t know)

pr relationship

fellow model acquaintances (they’ve walked the runway together??)

siblings (!!!! but i think i’ll send a wc to the main?)

a cousin or two (these connections are so underrated)

mother/father figure

travel buddies

anything atp !

A self-described transgender graphic designer made national headlines this June when a number of her designs were used in Target’s controversial pride collection. One design found on the London-based designer’s own online apparel shop has the message: “Satan respects pronouns,” encircling a goat head. 

The designer, whose shirts feature phrases like “astrology made me queer” and whose UFO-shaped pin says “no gender no problem,” doesn’t claim on her site to be a Satanist per se. Instead, “Erik” says, “There’s something magical about the unknown, the frightening, and the mystical which is why I so frequently feature these themes in my art.”     

Erik’s work isn’t the only pride-adjacent satanically inspired activity to feature in pop culture recently. The brand Nair, which supports pride as evidenced by its Instagram posts, ran an audacious “worship yourself” ad campaign that harks back to the “father of modern Satanism’s” motto, “Hail Satan! Hail thyself.” 

At the 2023 Grammy award show, self-proclaimed “nonbinary” singer Sam Smith and transgender Kim Petras’ performance of their hit single “Unholy” included blatant satanic imagery.

Smith and Petras don’t publicly identify as Satanists, but many LGBT members and “pride” proponents do. A simple search of “Satanist” among Twitter accounts brings up countless results that include rainbow flags and gender tags such as “nonbinary” and “she-they.” 

Lucien Greaves, cofounder of the Satanic Temple, says most members of the Temple are LGBT folks who consider themselves rejected by orthodox churches and other such religious establishments. Greaves told Out.com, “We will always fight them, we will fight them to the death to ensure that there are equal rights for the gay community.” 

History shows, too, that Satanism has been a fitting spiritual home for the pride “community.” Aleister Crowley, the early 19th-century occultist credited with being the “grandfather” of modern theistic Satanism, was keenly interested in ancient pagan deities, many of whom are seen today as “gender-bending.” Androgyny or hermaphroditism was seen by Crowley and other forebearers of the modern occult as mystical, powerful, and closer to the divine. Crowley’s “Gnostic Mass” includes the phrases:

Male-female, quintessential, one Man-being veiled in woman-form. 

The infamous icon of Satanism, the goat-headed “Baphomet,” represents a fusion of the male and female, with the two halves of the body representing each sex. The “divine androgyne” is “the hieroglyph of arcane perfection,” according to Crowley. While Baphomet has a complicated history of iterations and interpretation, it’s not unreasonable to imagine that gender-confused young people might welcome this binary-breaking symbol of “balance and harmony” and see a satanic sect as a spiritual home for them. 

The two most famous philosophical statements of the 20th century’s most iconic Satanists, Crowley and Anton LaVey, serve to illustrate the strong ties between modern “pride” and their belief systems. The life of Crowley especially finds continuity in the gender-expansive, free-love universe of pride. 

‘Hail Satan! Hail Thyself’

In the 1960’s, LaVey, known as the “Black Pope,” created a Satanism that differed from other, older satanic traditions in that it claimed to be atheistic, considering Satan to be a literary figure. LaVey’s most famous chant is “Hail Satan! Hail Thyself.” His Satanism prescribes self-worship and gratification: staples of LGBT pride culture.

Two of his Nine Satanic Statements are: “Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!” and, “Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence!”

While most who wave the rainbow flag no doubt would agree that, for instance, murder is wrong (a “so-called sin” Satan represents), pride nevertheless allies itself with the pro-abortion agenda. The right to murder a preborn baby leads to “mental and emotional gratification” for the abortive mother (and often her sexual partners). And ridding oneself of progeny to care for promotes further indulgence Satan is said to represent. Proponents of sexual libertinism and gender fluidity don’t usually describe themselves as Satanists, but LaVey’s philosophy of carnal hedonism is the bedrock of today’s pride culture.

Writing for the Encyclopedia of Religion, professor of religious studies Eugene V. Gallagher describes LaVey’s Satanic Bible as promoting “ritual and pageantry” and displaying “a flair for mockery.” On a ritualistic and philosophical level, drag queen, queer, and homosexual subcultures would mesh well with LaVeyan Satanism. What is drag but pageantry mocking femininity? And what would foment the mockery of Judeo-Christian sexual norms and family structure better than hailing Satan, the enemy of the God who made humankind into the “restrictive” physiological categories of “male and female”? 

‘Do What Thou Wilt’

One familiar repeated sentiment in Crowley’s 1909 The Book of the Law has echoed through culture for over a century now: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. … Love is the law, love under will.” We may not know it verbatim, but we recognize its other iterations such as “follow your heart” or “do what you want” or “all you need is love.” These popular cultural expressions guide the pride movement; they encourage the unshackling of human expression from heterosexual mores. 

Unlike LaVey who came after, Crowley was an unabashed theistic Satanist. He wrote in his autobiography of his desire to “get hold of [Satan] personally and become his chief of staff” and “get into personal communication with the Devil.” His pride and egotism, modeled in today’s pride movement, would seem prerequisites even to aspire to such a position.

Activities the Bible labels sexual depravity, the kind celebrated in pride parades, were rampant in Crowley’s life. Early on, he rejected Christian morality and saw taboos as things to be deliberately shattered. The occultist was keen on “sex magic” and was bisexual, as evidenced by his more recently discovered homoerotic poetry. The Book of the Law reflects his belief in “free love,” a lifestyle most accepted within pride: “Also, take your fill and will of love as ye will, when, where and with whom ye will!” 

Today, we can see the blending with LaVey’s and Crowley’s philosophies under the rainbow flag: While so-called love is esteemed, the only true reverence is for the self, and the only allegiance is to its will. The highest virtue is the expression of one’s true self: to live authentically, or live your truth. “Hail thyself” and “do what thou wilt” are guiding principles of the pride movement. 

In Christian theology, pride is the original sin that prompted God to cast Satan down from heaven. He now leads a rebellion against God’s will. What a wonder is it that pride is the name taken on by the LGBT alliance, which is also leading a rebellion against biblical morality? Those who don’t support pride are routinely shocked by the rhetoric, imagery, and stated desires of the pride movement, such as offering graphic sexual material to young children in school libraries.

But it should come as no surprise that rebellion against God’s design for humanity is satanically inspired. That is, after all, his mission.

What is Sufism?

Sufism is the practice of purifying one's heart and renouncing the material world in order to get closer to God, a well-established tradition within Islam (Sodiq, 2007). According to Rudiger Seesemann, Sufism is a sect of Islam that animates its soul. Sufism is normally associated with mystical and spiritual connotations, focusing on the inward search for God and spiritual growth (2010). It emphasizes the personal experience of the divine and the development of a closer relationship with God through practices such as meditation, chanting, and contemplation. Sufism aims to purify the heart and achieve a state of spiritual enlightenment or closeness to God, often expressed through poetry, music, and devotion to a spiritual guide or teacher (Cheikh/Sheikh). Sufis believe in the importance of love, compassion, and tolerance as essential elements of their spiritual journey. Sufism is practiced most throughout North and West Africa (Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, Sudan, Morocco, and Senegal) and less in the Middle East. Welch (2018) recognizes Seesemann’s duality of Sufism into two main categories: how one should behave towards God and how one should interact with people, whether Muslim or not (2010). Sufi teachers emphasize the need to internalize the components of the religion before one can align their external and internal attitudes. Sufi masters trained students who then spread these teachings to others in their villages. In Senegal, Sufism can be described as the importance placed on the “spiritual education of disciples” as those following Tariqas (or the path) aim to perfect their religion (Edwin, 2009). This may be due to the Sufi principle of “‘He who does not have a Shaykh will have Satan for a guide” (Edwin, 2009). It is said that in Senegalese society, there are many whom “...prefers to practice Islam through consultations of and affiliations to maraboutic or Islamic organizations.” (Edwin, 2009). An example of an esoteric practice in Senegal would be that of the gris-gris, amulets (Gemmeke, 2009). Other practices include dream interpretations, prayer sessions, numerology, astrology, healing, protection, divine sand-writing, identifying witches, fighting djinn, and casting spells. The above services may be called ‘maraboutage’ although there “appears to be no universally accepted local or regional term that covers all of the kinds of knowledge and practices“ (Gemmeke, 2009). Among the majority, there stands a small group of Muslims referred to as “Ibadu Muslims” in Senegal who do not associate themselves with brothers or having spiritual guides (Edwin, 2009). This group follows the Quran and the Sunna, in which they try their best to emulate the way of life of the Prophet Muhammad; the only human to have ever perfected Islam on Earth (Edwin, 2009).

But amidst the hustle and bustle, many of us yearn for a little guidance, a way to navigate the twists and turns life throws our way. This is where astrology steps in, offering a unique perspective on human experience.

For centuries, people have looked to the stars for insights into their lives.

Specialization: Consider your goals. Are you seeking guidance on career, relationships, or personal growth? Look for astrologers who specialize in the area that resonates most with you.

Consultation Method: Some astrologers offer phone or video consultations, while others prefer in-person meetings. Choose a method that best suits your comfort level and schedule.

Stress Management: By understanding your triggers and emotional cycles, astrology can equip you with tools to manage stress and navigate challenging times.

Life Path Exploration: Astrology can offer clues about your life purpose and potential career paths. This can be especially helpful during periods of transition or self-discovery.

Beyond Seeking Guidance: The Allure of Learning Astrology

Empowerment: Understanding the language of astrology equips you to interpret your own birth chart and those of your loved ones. This knowledge empowers you to make informed decisions and navigate life with greater clarity.

Personal Growth: The study of astrology encourages introspection and self-reflection. As you learn about planetary influences, you gain a deeper understanding of your own motivations and behaviors.

Community Building: The world of astrology is full of passionate individuals. Taking a course allows you to connect with like-minded people and build a supportive community.

Creative Outlet: Astrology can be a fascinating and creative pursuit. Learning to interpret charts and symbols can be a stimulating intellectual exercise.

Here's a simple exercise for you.

Read Donna Farhi's quote about yoga and then substitute the word 'astrology' for 'yoga' and the word 'traditional' for 'Sanskrit' and that pretty much explains how closely parallel these two practices can be.

Does that mean they are the same?

Well, Yes in some ways, but No, in other ways.

I will try to explain as much as is possible in one hour tomorrow at 7pm at Steiner House. But this event can be seen online too.

The link to join is on the Astrological Lodge of London's 'Events' page on Face Book.

Namaste. #yogastrology #Steinerhouse #astrologicalodge

she was just supposed to be a normal girl, or at least that's what her parents tried to make her.

with her father being one of the most popular actors in turkey and her mother being a supermodel turned luxury clothing designer of her very own line, although they tried their best to shield their only child from the opulence and the glitz and the glamour, leyla was drawn to it like a moth to a flame.

she was loud and dramatic and often times considered 'too much' and her parents figured boarding school would whip her into shape come high school, but it did just the opposite.

after being shipped off to london, leyla started a youtube channel documenting her freshman year, vlogging all of the debaucheries things her and her friends got into.

she was a notorious party girl and wasn't shy about drinking and doing drugs on camera, despite the fact that it was causing wild headlines back home in turkey and causing her to get in lots of trouble at school - but trouble was nothing that mommy and daddy's money couldn't buy her out of.

in between the vlogs of her throwing ragers in her dorm room, every once in a while, she'd post covers of her favorite songs, and those videos became her most popular. garnishing over millions and millions of views.

when she was only seventeen years old, warner brothers reached out to her and offered her a recording contract, which she happily took.

they were lacking a giant, female pop sensation and planned on turning leyla into just that.

a day after she threw her hat in the air at her boarding school graduation, she was on a plane to l.a straight from her graduation party and finally, the life she always wanted was about to begin.

after two long years of working on her first album, three years ago, her self titled album, leyla pasha, was released. this album secured her the win for best new artist in 2020 at the grammy's.

since then, leyla has been touring this album while also releasing a plethora of singles and collaborations - from title tracks for movies, to collabs with the hottest artists in the industry, she's truly becoming the newly cemented princess of pop.

however, she remains in her messy roots, not one to change for the cameras or become more uppity. she still keeps up with her youtube vlogs and still, unashamedly, acts exactly like the wild party girl she used to be back in london.

she truly said fuck you to media training and is known for saying the most out of pocket things in interviews, calling people out and starting shit online, just because she can.
