Bruno Huber

Bruno Huber (November 29, 1930 – November 3, 1999) was a Swiss astrologer and psychologist. In 1968, with his wife, Louise Huber, he founded Astrological Psychology Institute, which became an internationally renowned school of Astrology. It was run according to humanist and psychological principles, based on Dr. Roberto Assagioli's theory of Psychosynthesis. The school initially offered personal teaching, and then professional Diploma training from 1973. Huber schools were subsequently established in UK and Spain. The Hubers’ teachings were gradually crystallised into books, which have subsequently been translated into many languages. Their holistic method of Astrological Psychology has a worldwide following.[1]

Early life and marriage

The young Bruno Huber had a voracious interest in astrology, psychology and philosophy, but became disillusioned with the practice of astrology at that time. In 1952 he met astrologer and esotericist Louise, discovering an immediate common bond. They married a year later and lived in Zürich.

Astrological career

In 1956 they were involved for two years with setting up a branch of the Arcane School[2] in Geneva.

In Florence

In 1958, Huber was invited to Roberto Assagioli’s Psychosynthesis Institute[3] in Florence, which led to the pair spending three years there assisting with running of the Institute and the documentation of Assagioli's psychosynthesis.

During this period Bruno was able to perform extensive research into the horoscopes and psychological profiles of Assagioli's patients, and eventually he developed theories on horoscope interpretation that became the basis for Astrological Psychology, or Huber Astrology.

Work in Zürich

In 1963, the couple returned to Zürich. In 1968, Huber and his wife Louise began to give seminars on the results of their researches, and the Astrological Psychology Institute was founded. A following soon developed in Zurich, and the teaching activities developed apace, going further afield in Switzerland and Germany, and then at international conferences, and in USA, UK, Spain and Brazil.

By the early 2000s tens of thousands of students had been through the courses, and equivalent courses were available in Spain and in UK.

The Hubers were also heavily involved in organising and presenting at three-yearly World Astrology Conferences in Switzerland.

Publications

In 1974 Huber formed a publishing company was formed, and a series of books gradually emerged; most have subsequently been published in English and in Spanish.

The astrological psychology magazine Astrolog was established in 1981 and continues to this day.[4]

Health Decline and Death

In 1991 Huber had a heart attack, though he continued working.

He died in 1999.
