📝 Description: Kabbalistic Astrology: The Sacred Tradition of the Hebrew Sages (New of the Astrological Secrets of the Hebrew Sages)

A rabbi reveals the profound astrological tradition to be found in the Kabbalah, Bible, Talmud, and Midrash. - A thorough explanation of the most sophisticated system of astrology known. - More than 30 tables and charts for doing readings and creating horoscopes. - New edition of Astrological Secrets of the Hebrew Sages. The ancient Hebrews developed the richest and most sophisticated system of astrology known in the Western world, but this practice has been almost completely forgotten. Now Joel Dobin, an ordained rabbi and practicing astrologer, brings to light the wealth of astrological information in the Kabbalah, Bible, Talmud, and Midrash, revealing a profound tradition as valuable today as it was millennia ago. Key to this astrological system is the Kabbalah--the Jewish mystery tradition--in which the sacred Tree of Life links the influences of the twelve zodiacal constellations and seven planets to specific letters of the Hebrew alphabet, creating a unique method for constructing horoscopes. Analyses of the zodiac according to the rulerships of the sons of Jacob, the importance of solar and lunar directions and masculine and feminine influences, and the paradigm-shifting nature of the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction (next scheduled for 2001) are all explored for their impact on global and personal destiny. More than 30 tables and charts put all the information needed for doing astrological readings at your fingertips.

Esoterica Books editorial team

Occult literature desk

Dobin’s text serves as a meticulous academic and spiritual reconstruction of Hebrew astrological secrets. While the integration of Talmudic and Midrashic sources is impressive, the dense theoretical framework may alienate casual readers or those preferring modern psychological astrology. It requires patience and a willingness to engage with complex Kabbalistic concepts. However, for dedicated practitioners interested in the historical roots of divinatory arts, it offers unparalleled depth and authenticity that few contemporary works can match.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Lost Ancient Wisdom

Delve into the rich, yet largely forgotten, astrological heritage of the ancient Hebrews.

Practical Chart Interpretation

Beyond theoretical exposition, the book provides abundant resources for hands-on application. With over thirty detailed tables and charts, readers gain the necessary tools to construct and interpret horoscopes using this unique Kabbalistic framework, allowing for a deeply personalized understanding of one's spiritual and earthly path.

📜 Historical context
