If I may make a book recommendation, I'm currently going through ibn Ezra's 11th century H-braic Astrological treatise The Beginning of Wisdom. It's a most important little work to chronicle the understanding of the heavens in the medieval period. Much is borrowed from Ptolemy, but much comes from non-extant sources ranging from India to Baghdad. It may not be as "full" of a work as, say, the 6th century Chronicles of Jeremeel, but it is important as a source work of the understanding in the 11th century and beyond. Much of it is familiar to me, some involves interesting theological interpretations. I highly recommend it on your shelf as a source work. Get the leatherbound edition. I'll read a bit before drafting off to sleep. Leatherbound volume of Abraham Ibn Ezra's The Beginning of Wisdom https://imgur.com/a/3lV7BJz I apologize if I offended you Silas. It was not my intent. Well, you see, that's a tricky thing. It's irrelevant if you offend me. I am nothing more than dust and ashes as a man. We little human vapors explore this fallen desert for a while and then disappear back into dust whence we were taken. The higher powers are the only ones you need worry about if them you have offended. I am but a baby playing in Earth's sandbox. The Creator, however, is truly the Living Holistic One. I cannot approach that level of light. It is too great for me. Christ was on that level, but I am a very stupid man and have not attained to Wisdom.
