Rensberger wrote the first astrological textbook in German, consisting of four parts. It teaches the student the calculation of the positions of the Planets and the creation of a birth chart. Rensberger explains the meaning and effects of lunar and solar eclipses and revolutions, as well as the interpretation of the future years from the horoscope. In contrast to determinism, the mathematician Rensberger takes the view that astrology is a divine tool to become a better Christian. The stars enable man to recognize the characteristics of every individual and thus to change them for the better through self-knowledge.
