Horoscopes are an amazing cultural achievement: there is perhaps no other concept that all cultures have in common at all times. For example, a great idea is that the constellation Capricorn actually represents a Babylonian demon, a goat-fish hybrid, or that the lion represents the demon Urgola. This name comes from the Sumerian language, a language that was already extinct in oral form in the Babylonian period and was transmitted only on clay tablets. Looking at the starry sky not only allows us to see the depths of space, but also connects us to the distant past. It seems as if the constellations are indeed eternal.
