About the author
Born William Frederick Allan in Westminster, London, on August 7, 1860, he became widely known under the pen name Alan Leo. He was an English astrologer, author, publisher, and member of the Theosophical movement, and is often described as a major force behind modern astrology.
Through his writing and publishing work, he helped bring astrology back into public conversation after a long period of decline in the West. He is especially associated with shifting attention away from strict prediction and toward character, temperament, and personal interpretation, a change that influenced many later popular astrology traditions.
He died on August 30, 1917. For readers interested in the history of occult and esoteric writing, Alan Leo remains an important and influential figure whose work shaped how astrology was presented to general readers for generations.
