Sinopsis

Alan Leo was the first modern astrologer. He took an obscure, niche interest, re-packaged it, and placed it firmly at the centre of popular culture. His story is that of the other sort of Victorian&mdash,not the prudish and repressed empire builder, but one who mixed magic and science and rejected social mores in favour of creating a society where equality and universal brotherhood were the main themes.He was the first astrologer to argue for a loose interpretation of trends of experience rather than specific predictions, leadingáto the birth of Sun sign astrology and horoscope columns.áThroughout much of his life, Alan worked alongside his wife Bessie &mdash,this is her story, too.
