Description

An original copy of Prenatal Astrology a scarce 1926 astrology pamphlet with analyses of famous scientists and the USS Shenandoah air disaster

 

McKeever, Edwin. Prenatal Astrology. Los Angeles, CA : Privately Printed. 1926.

 

Prenatal Astrology is the second of seven issues from the scarce self-published quarterly journal of Edwin McKeever, a San Francisco astrologer. Here, McKeever attempts to establish the principle of astrological influence by examining menstruation, sex, and childbirth as well as the natal charts of two late scientists and the timing of a famous air disaster. In addition to analyzing the charts of Botanist Luther Burbank and alternating current proponent Dr. Charles Steinmetz, McKeever includes an astrology chart for an averted air disaster six weeks before the September 1925 crash of the USS Shenandoah, one of four rigid airships built for use by the US Navy, for point of comparison.

Several pages of advertising included at the end showing the still extant Llewellyn Publishing’s early, entirely astrological offerings.

No copies found in OCLC as of January 2023.
