Astrosynthesis: The Rational System of Horoscope Interpretation According to Morin de Villefranche by Jean Baptiste Morin and Lucy Little (1661) – Twenty-First Book of the Astrologia Gallica

Jean-Baptiste Morin de Villefranche, Latinized as Morinus, born in Villefranche-sur-Saône (Rhône) on 23 February 1583 and died in Paris on 6 November 1656, is a mathematician and astrologer French proponent of geocentrism, who proposed a controversial method astronomical for determining longitude at sea. Towards the end of his life, Morin compiled a great treatise of astrology in Latin, the Astrologia Gallica, which appeared after his death. The 26 books that comprise this book, published in The Hague in 1661 in one volume folio of 850 pages, discuss astrology called judicial 2: horoscopes individual political astrology 3, astrology deliberative and the weather forecast. The more technical passages devoted to astrological calculations (as opposed to theological presuppositions of the discipline) were subsequently translated or paraphrased in both French and Spanish, in English and German. English astrologers, in particular, acknowledge him to have systematically studied the achievements made in the promised historical horoscopes. His techniques based on the concepts of “leadership”, “return” and “passage” of the planets. In his attempts to rationalize his practice, Morin questioned much of traditional astrology techniques, including astrology Ptolemy. On the other hand, he spent lavishly to promote his own technique of taking into account the directions in world stars, based on previous work of Regiomontanus. In Gallican Astrology,
