Henry VIII, King of England from 1509, (1932). Henry (1491-1547) succeeded his father, Henry VII, in 1509. Obsessed with passing the throne on to a male heir, he had six wives in the course of his reign, none of whom provided him with a son who survived. In divorcing his first wife, Catherine of Aragon, in 1533, Henry severed the English church from Rome. With portraits of Henry's six wives; Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard and Catherine Parr. From Kings and Queens by Eleanor and Herbert Farjeon, illustrated by Rosalind Thornycroft [Victor Gollancz Ltd, London, 1932]

RMMBD4W0–HOROSCOPES - HENRY VIII, KING OF ENGLAND The horoscope of King Henry VIII, published by Lucas Gauricus,Tractatus Astrologicus, (1542). Henry was born on 28 June 1491, in London. Gauricus is certainly in error in giving the chart an Ascendant of 15.30 Leo: the Moon in 08.50 Aries differs from more reliable charts by almost two degrees, and this Ascendant would not be possible with the stipulated Moon position. See the colour version of a chart for Henry VIII, in the Charles Walker Collection.
