Roland Legrand

Roland Legrand was born in a North Parisian suburb on June 13, 1950 at 6:02 pm, under the sign of Gemini with an Ascendant in Scorpio. The Sun is in “House VIII”, in his natal chart, partly explaining his innate interest in occult sciences in general and of course, astrology…

He began the study of astrology in the early seventies, in Australia, where he lives since December 1969. Several years of practice were necessary before he decided to synthesize his acquired knowledge of the subject and adapt astrology to his own intentions: professional consulting and teaching.

He began to actually consult in 1977 and, thanks to an propitious encounter with an American writer based in Queensland, Australia, Roland Legrand founded ABLAS in December 1982 at the business registrar in Brisbane, Australia.

ABLAS stands for A Better Life Astrology School, which is dedicated to teaching astrology by correspondence both in English and French languages.

Roland Legrand’s aim is essentially to contribute to the progress of this science, through teaching, consulting, researching and writing.

To this day, three of his books have been published (in French) by two different publishers, GRANCHER and PARDES.

He also writes for a French magazine (NUMEROLOGIA) and for L’EST REPUBLICAIN, a daily provincial newspaper in eastern France.
