Dorotheus of Sidon was an ancient Greek astrologer who lived in the first century CE. He is best known for his work on astrology, which is preserved in the form of a poem called “Carmen Astrologicum”. This work is one of the most comprehensive and influential texts on astrology ever written, and it has been used by astrologers for centuries. In it, Dorotheus lays out the principles of astrology and explains how it can be used to interpret the movements of the stars and planets. He also includes practical advice on how to interpret different types of horoscopes. Dorotheus’ work is still studied and used by modern astrologers today.
