An Introduction to Astrology is a revitalized edition of William Lilly’s 17th-century work, Christian Astrology, meticulously adapted by Richard James Morrison, under his penname, Zadkiel. Morrison, a British astrologer, is perhaps most well-known for his annual "Zadkiel's Almanac," which was first issued in 1831. Morrison, with his extensive experience in astrology, infuses the text with contemporary insights while preserving Lilly’s classical approach, aiming to foster a more informed and unbiased understanding of astrological science. The book, with its comprehensive coverage, includes a Grammar of Astrology and Tables for Calculating Nativities, catering to all practitioners. Zadkiel challenges prevailing skepticism, urging readers to personally explore and test the principles of astrology, thereby ensuring that their opinions are grounded in experience and knowledge rather than preconceived notions. Zadkiel’s work advocated for the practice of astrology as a tool for personal and societal insight.
