Royal horoscope

-
The latest hypothesis of the American astronomer Michael Molnar, developed by Jarosław Włodarczyk, seems to be extremely interesting.

Towards the end of the first century BC and in the first century AD, a veritable mania for royal horoscopes gripped the Roman Empire. It was believed that a specific planetary alignment at the moment of birth determined a person's potential to be a ruler. It even went so far as to make Augustus public his horoscope in AD 11 to confirm his claim to the imperial throne. "Successive rulers ordered their court astronomers to secretly check the horoscopes of those around them. There are known cases where an astrologer's suggestion resulted in the death of an unfortunate individual whose horoscope was 'too good,'" says Dr. Włodarczyk.

At that time, astrology was considered a science, so it is highly likely that Eastern sages were guided by horoscopes.

Scholars investigated whether it was possible to draw a "royal" horoscope between 15 BC and 10 AD. It turned out that it was. Moreover, if someone was born in April 6 BC, they would have Jupiter, the Sun, and the Moon in the sign of Aries. "Based on astrological treatises of the time, we can conclude that the sign of Aries was considered to protect Judea. Therefore, by drawing the horoscope, the Magi could have concluded that the king was born in Judea," claims Dr. Włodarczyk. The Magi reached Jerusalem and told Herod about the horoscope. Following Old Testament prophecy, they set off for Bethlehem. This hypothesis also explains Herod's behavior. Belief in royal horoscopes was widespread at the time. It's no wonder Herod believed the Magi and soon carried out the Massacre of the Innocents. This hypothesis, of course, doesn't rule out the possibility of supernatural phenomena witnessed only by the Magi or shepherds. Nor does it constitute a praise of astrology. We may suspect that, in giving the wise men of the East this sign, God used a symbol they fully understood and that appealed to their imaginations – the royal horoscope.

The C-class intergalactic fighter, aptly named " Balbina ," glided with characteristic grace toward the constellation Beta D . The unassuming craft, shaped like a Coca-Cola bottle with the neck cut off, moved through the vastness of the universe with incredible grace. Inside the fighter, in a somewhat cramped cabin, sat a rather young, tall man with expressive features and a thick shock of black curls. The man was busily typing something on a computer, perhaps to sweeten the task while sipping a glass of whiskey. "Come on! Get the hell out of there, old geezer!" his irritated voice could be heard. As if to spite his words, the computer screen still displayed the message: " I'm sorry, Butch , the selected operation is impossible to complete." Already deeply frustrated, he threw a glass of whiskey with all his might at the metal door behind which lay the Balbina's mess hall. With a resounding crash, the glass shattered into thousands of tiny pieces,...
