Astral Worship

Published in 1996, 'Astral Worship' by J. H. Hill is a philosophical examination of the influence of ancient astral beliefs on modern religions, particularly Christianity. Hill argues that many contemporary religious practices can be traced back to earlier forms of astral worship, where celestial bodies were personified as deities. He discusses the duality of ancient religious systems, distinguishing between the Esoterics and Exoterics, and explores how these beliefs evolved through the Middle Ages and the Reformation, impacting theological teachings. The work provides critical insights into the origins of religious thought and the role of astrology in shaping spiritual narratives.
