Read across 1793–1794, the Astrologer's Magazine is among the earliest English astrology periodicals — an eighteenth-century organ of the art, printed in the long-s type that marks the period. Its content is the casting of nativities and zodiacal reckoning, the reading of the heavens for character and event. A rare late-Georgian witness to technical astrology surviving into the age of print, well before its Victorian revival. Mis-filed under mesmerism; it is astrology. Generated by Claude from the periodical's digitized text; a thematic reading, not a bibliographic description. |
