Your African Zodiac Sign And What it Reveals About You
You should know that African astrology is one of the oldest and most accurate forms of astrology and that it is founded on geomancy. The rise of ancient African civilizations is where the practice of astrology in Africa can be traced back.
It is believed that the Africans were the most primitive of societies, taking a great interest in the stars and inventing names for the planets through the study of astrology.
The foundational technique of African astrology is geomancy. When bones are thrown down randomly and form lines and arrows, this type of divination is called geomancy.
After that, the lines are organized into three distinct levels. The base plane consists of a bone (one of the three bones thrown) in a vertical line, and then the other two planes are formed from one or two lines.
Thus, a 12-figure image is created, and it was through the use of this method that the African zodiac was created. Having 12 zodiac signs is the case in so many other forms of astrology.
