Mundane Astrology: Astrology of the World
Mundane Astrology is one of the many branches of general Astrology and is also said to be the oldest. It was originally developed in ancient Babylon. In 120 AD, Greek astrologer Claudius Ptolemy set down the fundamentals in the treaties Tetrabiblos.
In the Middle Ages, mundane astrology was known as the study of Revolution, which looks at the orbital movements of planets around the Earth.
Today, Mundane Astrology refers to the application of this science-art to world events and affairs. Its name is derived from the Latin Mundus, which means “the World”. It serves two purposes. First, is to look back at historical patterns and explain the greater purpose of events (such as the rise and fall of empires or religions). The other is to predict the future.
There are two major approaches in the study of mundane astrology. The first, is to focus on national horoscopes. Countries are believed to have astrological sign charts or horoscope, such that each country is believed to have come into being during a certain time. Having such, lets an mundane astrologer look at the country’s natal potential.
The other way is to find correlations between geological phenomena (earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, etc.) and the movement of the celestial bodies in the solar system. This is placed on the horoscope of astronomical placements at any given time.
A subset of mundane astrology is political astrology, which deals with the government, politicians, politics, and governing bodies of a particular nation, state or city.
