To Ask: You've mentioned before that Elizabeth I clearly consulted John Dee on her coronation date, with notable effects (to put it mildly). Do you have any other favorite major historical events where you suspect astrological or other magical influences played a mostly-ignored role? (Did Napoleon have an especially Martial natal chart? Was the USSR declared on a unhelpful day? Were the land energies at Thermopylae especially suited to valiant defense? That kind of thing.)
As always, thanks very much to JMG and everyone else here.
To any who will have them, I put forth my blessings and best wishes, Jeff
