Doesn't seem always reliable, and as other wikis, full of plagiarizing and pirating. See f. ex. Krafft : "His "Correspondence" (University of London, Ann Arbor), offers interesting insights on his life and thoughts [for example, his disastrous speculations on the stock market] and his...

Hi Deb, you can examine Galileo's manuscript at this address, http://fermi.imss.fi.it/rd/bdv?/bdviewe ... 0000935139 (Dial, year 1601), and see by yourself what to think about these three charts.

I have another variant taken from Grazia Mirti and Serena Foglia "The astrological work of Galileo found at National Library in Florence" (European Conference in London, 1993) published in Linguaggio Astrale, n.88- 1992.

I therefore would rather see N/VH as neutral. If they were so, the book will not begin with a Festugi?re quote ! In fact I don't know one of these pioneers of history of astrology who was not antiastrologer ... (perhaps except one). And the reasons are easy to understand ! I don't see them in the s...

Probably, you're right, but everybody's being mistaken (even me * ) and I guess that N/VH were not so interested by these technics called primary directions ... Right or wrong, and probably biased by antiastrology prejudices, it remains that this book (now freely available) has not yet been replaced...

Reprint of 1959 Neugebauer / Van Hoesen Greek Horoscopes A reprint of 1959 Neugebauer / Van Hoesen Greek Horoscopes is downloadable here http://books.google.com/books?id=kEgnLpm06zQC The very necessary book for the study of Greek horoscopes.
