From ancient times to modern-day, these enigmatic figures have left an indelible mark on history. One such luminary was John Dee, a renowned mathematician and astrologer who served as an advisor to Queen Elizabeth I. Alongside his partner Edward Kelly, they delved into alchemy and communicated with angels in their quest for knowledge. The Christmas star, a rare planetary conjunction that occurs once in a lifetime, has captivated astrologers throughout centuries, and is said that this celestial event holds great significance and can foretell major events or shifts in destiny. No discussion about astrology would be complete without mentioning NOSTRADAMUS. This French seer gained fame for his prophecies which continue to intrigue us even today. His cryptic verses have sparked countless debates about their accuracy and hidden meanings.
