The Astrosophy Research Center was founded in 1985 by Willi Sucher as a vehicle to maintain, publish, and further develop his work on the new relationship of the human being to the starry cosmos. He called this new star wisdom ASTROSOPHY: Greek – astro = star; sophy = wisdom. His work was inspired by the knowledge imparted by Rudolf Steiner, which was his lifetime study and path of spiritual development.
