Ancient Egyptian astrology

The development of astrology in Egypt can be divided into two periods.

The first period originated in the fifth century BC, when the Persians invaded. At that time, astrology was mixed with early Egyptian religious traditions. At that time, there was knowledge about astrology, which was only reserved for a few people. This is a profound theory: kings, priests and a few elites. This situation can be known from its worship of Hermes (Hermes Trismegistos is the Greek name of the Egyptian god Thoth, who is in charge of knowledge and reproduction). Corresponding to Hermes, his underground agent, the priest who observed the astronomical phenomena, transcribed the astronomical phenomena, while astrology predicted the Nile flood through the observation of Sirius in the practice of the general public.

In the second period, when Alexander conquered Egypt, Egypt was really influenced by astrology, and Greek knowledge was introduced into Egypt. Ptolemy himself was an Egyptian, and his four books mixed Greek logic and Egyptian religious mysticism. Moreover, the Egyptians also applied astrology knowledge to the secular level, which was very obvious in the Egyptian clergy. The contribution of the Egyptians to astrology is to divide each house of the zodiac into three degrees, and each degree is dominated by a planet, which has influenced some astrology theories today. Egyptian astrology includes the equator (an eagle, represented by an eagle), the ecliptic represented by ibis in their mythology, and an ugly monster with a dog face, which is divided according to the vernal equinox and the autumnal equinox. Before being influenced by Greek culture, people in Egypt worshipped the Nile God (Eni is a gift from the Nile God), just like this river has a long history. Egyptians believe in the eternity of the soul, and the periodic flooding of the Nile also shows that the human soul will be reborn forever. Therefore, at that time, it was not necessary to predict the river flood by predicting the astronomical phenomena.

However, the situation changed after the Greeks conquered Egypt. The astrological symbols used by Egyptians and kaleb are somewhat similar, but most of the symbols used in astrology today come from Egypt. The religion in Egypt basically worships the sun god (Ra) and became the god of the underworld after the death of Pharaoh: Osiris. The rising and setting of the sun every day symbolizes a person.

Although, compared with the Greeks, Egyptians have little connection with today's astrology, like the Chaldeans, Egypt seems to be part of the origin of astrology, especially in the structure of symbols and psychological archetypes.
