Apotelesmatics Book III: On Inceptions

Book III: On Inceptions is based largely on Dorotheus and focuses on inception charts taken broadly: elections, thought-interpretation and analysis, event charts, and even proto-horary questions. In addition to lengthy instructions on crafting strong elections, typical inceptions include forming business deals, getting married, finding lost property, founding cities, farming, asking for favors, travel, surgery and medical treatment, and even the astrological reading of entrails. Event charts include analyzing the truth of rumors, the return of missing spouses, and more. Hephaistion also includes thought-interpretation techniques, using twelfth-parts and other methods.

Book III is also the most important source of authentic Greek verses of Dorotheus, complementing the Arabic translation by ‘Umar al-Tabari. This edition includes numerous Dorothean Excerpts and Fragments identified by Pingree and others, which supplement and enhance the material in Hephaistion. Along with Choices & Inceptions: Traditional Electional Astrology (2012), Hephaistion’s Book III provides the most complete picture of Hellenistic and medieval inceptional astrology. (206 pages)

This is the first English translation of Book III of Hephaistion of Thebes' Apotelesmatics, which focuses on inceptions or elections, event charts, thought-interpretation, and inquiries of many types.
This 5th Century AD work explores everything from general principles of elections, to finding and identifying thieves, predicting the course of illness, analyzing general thoughts and plans, consecrating statues, and more. Throughout, Hephaistion includes lengthy and valuable quotations from Dorotheus of Sidon, one of our only ancient sources for these authentic Greek verses.

Translated by Eduardo J. Gramaglia, and edited and introduced by Dr. Benjamin N. Dykes, it serves practicing astrologers and scholars of the Hellenistic, medieval, and modern traditions in astrology.

Eduardo J. Gramaglia is an award-winning translator of Greek and professor of musical analysis in Argentina. He has translated Paul of Alexandria, Serapio, and other Hellenistic astrologers into Spanish, and is co-Principal of the Collegium Astrologicum.
