Across the vast continent of Africa — a land shaped by diverse cultures, deep spirituality, and millennia of ancient traditions — a distinct and powerful form of astrology emerged.

Throughout human history, astrology has repeatedly resurfaced as a system people turn to when searching for meaning, identity, or direction. Even now—despite modern technology—many still study horoscope predictions, track zodiac signs, and consult an astrologer for insight. Yet these practices are far older than our era. Similar systems existed in ancient Babylon, and traces of them appear throughout the Old Testament.
