Hello everyone!
I have been studying about the history of western astrology from various websites. I am interested in learning more about medieval, traditional and renaissance astrology. It seems that there are differences between all three but Medieval is considered like the "grandparent" (as stated in the following source: http://www.new-library.com/zoller/faq/) which heavily influenced Traditional Astrology. I find this fascinating and would love to learn more about how specifically. I am curious to know from the experienced members of this forum what exactly are the major differences between the three (obviously time period/ length of time that each "school" lasted) in regards to the birth chart and what techniques are used or not used. I am sure that there must be things that were used in one form of astrology that were either completely dropped or adapted. I also noticed that sometimes people use the term "traditional astrology" and "renaissance astrology" interchangeably so I am not sure if they are in fact the same thing ( I know I saw this somewhere but I can't remember the site). I hope I am making sense and please excuse me if I made any mistakes in my statements above. I am a total newbie but I really want to learn. Thanks everyone!
