The earliest records of Astrology date back to the third millennium BC. Astrology has frequently played a central and vital role in the scientific, medical, philosophical, literary and psychological traditions of cultures all over the world. From ancient Mesopotamia, Greece and Egypt, through until now, astrologers have seen the stories of individual lives and great historical events reflected in the cosmos. However, because of the developments in Science and a reduction in the studies of magical and mystical traditions in the 18th century, Astrology lost the status and intellectual respectability it had enjoyed.
