Abstract

During the Renaissance period, the recovery of the main texts of ancient astrology, particularly Ptolemy, made possible a movement to reform pseudoscience that sought to eliminate allelements of medieval origin, linked to Arabic astrology. However this target was not achieved, motivated by limitations in Ptolemaic doctrines. In this paper we will analyze some of the main sources from which astrological practice was nurtured mainly during the 15th and 16th centuries, and in what way they contributed to shaping the astrological art of that time.
