Summary[edit]

Description
English: Horoscope for the Supernova of 1572 (labeled: "Nova stella") by Tycho Brahe
"It was when deciding on the date of its first appearance that he had recourse to a horoscope: he simply adapted a method advocated for comets by 'Alī ibn Ridwan, and decided that its first appearance was during the conjunction of Sun and Moon on 5 November 1572..." North, John David (1986) Horoscopes and history, The Warburg Institute, University of London, pp. 175−176 ISBN:978-0854810680
