About this Book Scan

Carefully reproduced in full colour from our original printing of the 1895 first edition.

David Cope, a.k.a. Zariel, was a British-born astrologer who emigrated to Australia in the 1890s and is noted as one of the early popularisers of astrology in modern Australia. ‘The Horoscope Revised’ is his only significant work to have been published in England.

Walter Gorn Old, a.k.a. Sepharial, was one of the leading British astrologers and esotericists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He wrote many books, of which ‘The Prognostications Based upon the Ruling Sign’ was one of his earliest in print.

These two works by separate authors were published as one. The original edition has become very scarce and hard to find.
