Sumerian Astrology

Sumerian astrology is an ancient system that connects celestial events and planetary positions to human traits, events, and destinies. Rooted in the Sumerians' observations of the sky around 3000 BCE, it used stars, planets, and lunar cycles as symbols for personality and fate. Sumerians believed that celestial bodies influenced earthly affairs and used these insights for divination and timing important events. This early form of astrology laid foundational ideas for later cultures in Mesopotamia, blending astronomy with spiritual interpretation to understand individual characteristics and societal happenings.
