Hellenistic astrology is a tradition of
horoscopic astrology that was developed and practiced in
Hellenistic Egypt and the
Mediterranean, whose texts were written in
Greek (or sometimes
Latin), sometime around the late 2nd or early 1st century BCE. Although the Hellenistic period properly ended in the early part of the
Common Era, this type of astrology that was developed sometime during the early Hellenistic period was practiced in essentially its original form until the 6th or 7th century CE and thus it is still commonly referred to as 'Hellenistic astrology'.
