The virtues of Teriaca

July 20, 2008

The formula of Teriaca derives directly from Galen. De Theriaca ad Pisonem was one of the most read and commented parts of Galen texts in the Renaissance. .Essendo dunque già nel corpo humano entrato il veneno…hanno stimato i medici rationali che, mettendovi dentro un altro veneno, facilmente si smoverebbe per andare a trovare il suo [...]

Of Comets or blazing stars, Plinius book II

June 3, 2008

Of Comets or blazing stars, and cœlestiall prodigies, their nature, situation, and diverse sorts. THESE blazing starres the Greekes call Cometas, our Romanes Crinitas: dreadfull to be seene, with bloudie haires, and all over rough and shagged in the top like the bush of haire upon the head. The same Greekes call those starres Pogonias, which [...]

Hermes 14 stars, stones, herbs

The like consideration is to be had in all things concerning the figures of the fixed Stars: so they will have the Terrestiall [terrestrial] Ram to be under the rule of the Celestiall Aries: and the Terrestiall Bull, and Ox to be under the Celestiall Taurus. So also that Cancer should rule over Crabs, and [...]

Cardano on fixed stars in De iudiciis geniturarum (1547)

Stars at the border of Sagittarius, the three ones of third magnitude near or over the arrow, have a great influence in producing murderers. If they are well disposed they make heroes, men of war, tribunes, judges, responsible for other people's death; if ill disposed, they make wardens, subordinate

ABOUT STARS RISING WITH THE 12 SIGNS ACCORDING ALBUMASAR GREAT INTRODUCTION

Stars rising with portions of ecliptic, the so-called paranatellonta, have a central place in traditional astrology. Ancient texts give a lot of room to this subject, Manilius dedicated to paranatellonta the whole fifth book of his Astronomica, Firmicus lists them in two of the eight books of Mat

Some personal notes

A THIEF called ANTON GRIGORYEV Caesar divorced Pompeia at once, but when he was summoned to testify at the trial, he said he knew nothing about the matters with which Clodius was charged. His statement appeared strange, and the prosecutor therefore asked, "Why, then, didst thou divorce thy wife?"

A short guide to Ptolemaic primary directions

Reading here and there I see that primary directions are seen as very difficult and occult. It is not like that. Ideas which are behind are very easy to grasp, and modern software can do all the calculation for us: on the other hand people who have learned them generally use them as a way to show ho

The astronomy of primum mobile: Placidean directions under the pole

Since the Antiquity astrology (and prediction) was based on astronomical tables generally divided into three different parts collected together: tables of primum mobile, tables of planetary positions, eclipses; at the beginning of the Renaissance tables of primum mobile were separated from the rest:

the astrological ceiling of Villa Farnesina in Rome

This is the transcript of the lecture kept in Rome by me and Anton Grigoryev (who wrote the article with me) for the Congress/Competition of October 2006 organized by CIDA, the Italian Astrological Association . The Italian text has been published in the Winter 2006 issue of Linguaggio Astrale, t

MEDIEVAL AND RENAISSANCE MUSIC

Music in the Middle Ages and Renaissance is music for life, the sound of work, war, happiness, sadness, love, prayer. [vimeo 2654494] The Litaniae Sanctorum are one of the oldest prayers of the Church. They were established by Gregorius the Great in 590 AD to stop the plague. A medieval legend

Stade on Fixed stars

Fixed stars have a prominent part in traditional astrology: Ptolemy in the first book of Tetrabiblos lists them without giving any meaning, but we have several alternative sources for them, Manilius and Firmicus in the Latin world, Anonymous of 379 and two chapters from Liber Hermetis in the
