Brief history of The Annual: "The first 205 issues of 'Modern Astrology' were edited by Alan
Leo from August 1895 to December 1912. The first two (of four) issues of 'The Astrologer's Annual',
a short-lived publication that was issued instead of 'Modern Astrology' in
December 1905, 1906, 1907 and 1908 only.... [T]his particular publication is extraordinarily
difficult to source, since it is not included in the typical bound volumes of
'Modern Astrology' magazine." [D. Houlding] In these bound volumes, Alan Leo is never referenced by name — only as "The Editor." Wonderful topics covered in the 1909 edition include: Dream Experiences; Astrology and Personal Fate — Karma; What Is Luck?; How To Read the Cards (Tarot) — A Popular Recreation for the Christmas Season; and more.
