Helena Avelar and Luis Ribeiro on Traditional Astrology

An interview with astrologers Helena Avelar and Luis Ribeiro about their work on traditional astrology, and their two books on the subject.

Helena and Luís are from Portugal, and are the authors of the 2010 book On the Heavenly Spheres: A Treatise on Traditional Astrology, which is a comprehensive introduction to traditional, pre-20th century forms of astrology:

This was one of the first really good introductory books that came out after the revival of traditional forms of astrology over the past 30 years, and I recommend it on my list of the best astrology books for beginners.

They recently released a second book titled Traditional Astrology Course: Essential Concepts and Interpretation Basics, which acts as a companion volume to their first book, and helps to supplement and expand on some of the concepts:

During the course of the interview we talk about how Helena and Luís got into traditional astrology, some of the philosophy behind it, and discuss what went in to writing the books.

We also discuss some of the academic work they have been doing on the history of astrology over the past decade, and their PhD dissertations on the subject.
