About this listen
• Shares the author’s decades-long research to decipher the meanings and characteristics behind each of the original eighteen signs
• Shows how the original zodiac can enrich and expand our understanding of astrology, personal relationships, and our sense of self and destiny
Today the zodiac is divided into twelve signs through which the sun appears to travel in a year. A person’s sign can influence their personality, physical characteristics, and fate. However, in ancient Mesopotamia, the first zodiac was divided into eighteen signs—different from the Western and Vedic systems in use today. The Original Zodiac reveals, for the first time in more than 4,000 years, this earliest known system of astrology.
The original Mesopotamian zodiac offered very different birth signs, including the Serpent, Swan, Crane, Horse, Wolf, and Eagle. This zodiac was recorded on a clay tablet that is now housed in the British Museum, cataloged as BM 86378, but there is no written record of how these signs were interpreted. Now, after decades of intensive research, Graham Phillips reveals the meanings of these mysterious signs and their relevance for our times.
To determine what traits might be shared by those born in each sign of the original zodiac, Phillips comprehensively surveyed hundreds of volunteers from diverse backgrounds. He measured each participant’s likes, dislikes, hobbies, habits, employment, health information, and other pertinent aspects of their lives and identities. Not intended to replace or challenge our traditional understanding of astrology, his findings offer an original system to enrich our current knowledge of the personality, character, and destiny of those born in each of its enigmatic signs.
Critic Reviews
“Graham Phillips brings current scientific evidence for astrology together with a rediscovery of the original zodiac in this fascinating and thought-provoking book. Relatable, accessible, and intriguing, it opens new windows into ancient wisdom that we today sorely need.”
“Graham Phillips adds a whole new dimension to the world of Göbekli Tepe by showing that behind all the incredible carved art and animal reliefs lies a cohesive system that could well be the beginnings of astrology as we know it. This is an important addition to the ancient mysteries bookshelf.”
“This thoroughly researched book reveals, for the first time to the modern world, the earliest known form of astrology and its zodiac, with roots in the world’s oldest known temple complex, Göbekli Tepe. A groundbreaking work.”
“For decades Graham Phillips has consistently produced remarkable, fresh insights into subjects of perennial interest such as the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail. To give us something new on the zodiac and astrology that combines recent scientific research with ancient history is worthy of note. To make it compellingly readable makes it all the more so.”
“Having known Graham for more than 30 years, I can say he is one of the most conscientious and thorough researchers in the esoteric history world. If he says there are grounds to consider a new, groundbreaking theory or concept, you can take it to the bank. Graham Phillips is always ahead of the curve and has been for years! He is a true pioneer of esoteric history, research, and exploration.”
