Come celebrate the 1903rd birthday of Vettius Valens, a 2nd-century Hellenistic astrologer who wrote the longest surviving treatise on Hellenistic astrology. Professional astrologer Chris Brennan recently worked with Mark Riley to produce a print edition of Riley's translation of The Anthology. CAELi Director Jenn Zahrt will host a discussion with Chris about this project and moderate your questions. It's going to be a Lot of Fun (pun intended).
Chris Brennan, a professional astrologer from Denver, Colorado, USA, has recently published Valens’ Anthology through his publishing house Amor Fati Publications. You may know him best as the host of The Astrology Podcast, and author of the book Hellenistic Astrology: The Study of Fate and Fortune. He attended Kepler College, focusing on cross-cultural comparisons between various astrological traditions, and has been a pillar of the astrological community in various forms of service and leadership.
