Anthony Louis is a psychiatrist who has studied astrology as a serious avocation since his early teens. His longstanding interest in the history and symbolism of the divinatory arts has led to his lecturing internationally and publishing numerous articles and books on astrology, tarot, and other forms of divination. His highly acclaimed text, Tarot Plain and Simple , first appeared in 1997 and has become a perennial favorite for students of tarot. His most recent book, Secrets of Predictive Astrology , discusses the work of the relatively unknown but brilliant early 20th century British astrologer William Frankland. Anthony is a member of the Astrological Society of Connecticut. His blog is at TonyLouis.wordpress.com .
