Guest guest Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Yes, as Roik has said, the Celts were into Astrology (as evidenced by the Henges, Stone and Wood) and if we examine some of the ancient tails of the Seanache (shawnahee, the traveling warrior/teacher/poets) we find that one of the Irish / Celtic precursor races was called the Firbolg. This in old Irish means "leather bag". So called for the bags they used to move earth and stones as those who helped Alexander of Macedon, Alexander the Great, build the edifices of Greece and the western provinces. This would have given them access to the Silk Road and the other cultures of the East. Since it is taught that the mechanics of Astrology were all taught by the Babylonians (this being from the area now that encompasses Iraq, a portion of Iran, Syria, and the lower slices of Turkey) and that the observational knowledge was promulgated from there to the east and the west, one can draw conclusions from that, remembering that the mechanics and the insights may be very separate.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 John M.: Is that where the name Sean comes from, the meaning "traveling warrior/teacher/poets"? Also are the Babylonians the originators of what is now tropical astrology?
