Throughout the ages, there has been many methods for forecasting the hidden aspects of life. Ancient civilizations such as Mesopotamia, Egypt, Babylon and China read the stars. American Indians and Australian Aboriginals read the signs and symbols in nature to guide them. The ‘three wise men’, or Magi, came from Persia and India to find the baby Jesus.The Magi kept very precise records of the positions of the stars
They believed that the stars held the secrets of the past and could foretell the future. “The Magi figured out that a very rare event was about to take place. The ‘wandering stars’ which today we know are planets Mars, Jupiter and Saturn would appear very close together in the constellation of Pisces. The Magi predicted that these three planets would form a triangular, arrow head shape in the sky which would point out an important event on earth. In those days, groups of people were ‘assigned’ constellations; Pisces was the constellation that had been given to the Hebrew people” (New York Times 1998).
