About this text
The first English-language geomancy manual, printed in London by John Wolfe in 1591. Translated from the French of Christoforo Cattan, a Genoese gentleman who compiled the classical Arabic system as it had passed through the Italian and French occult traditions. Covers the full shield chart method — four Mothers, four Daughters, four Nephews, two Witnesses, and the Judge — with the Wheel of Pythagoras and a house-by-house guide to all sixteen figures. Historically irreplaceable as the bridge between the Arabic geomantic tradition and the English-speaking world.
