Comets in Astrology & Magic


Comets in Astrology & Magic


Comets have always captured the attention of men in each and every one of their civilizations; usually the astrologers of the old age attributed to comets the omens of death, in fact the death of great kings and dictators was generally predicted by the appearance of a “star” plowing the sky months before. The sudden appearance of a comet is usually related to the Gods of Life and Death as Proserpine and Osiris, or may be associated with births and deaths of kings as with Jesus Christ and the Roman Emperor Tiberius Claudius respectively.

The historian Josephus relates that in 66 AD. (four years before the destruction of Jerusalem) appeared a brilliant comet, which today is known that it was the Halley comet. The Romans believed that the comet that appeared at the death of Julius Caesar in 44 BC. It was his own soul. haktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda (1896-1977), said that comets are like policemen, who should only frighten evil people, because it comes to take them.

William Ramesay, in his book Astrology Restored of 1653, indicates as mundane astrology, that old practice of believing that comets are only carriers of bad omens, plague, diseases, famines, wars, death, floods and earthquakes. William Ramesay suggests that the appearance of a comet must be studied in great detail as it alters and assimilates various astrological aspects around it and these must be taken into account.

In magic and sorcery, a comet is a positive sign of a kind of energy joint that crosses the sky giving witches and practitioners an extra source of power to strengthen all their spells and rituals positively. A comet has the power to disassociate or annul all sorts of negative spells and rituals, to break very old curses, and to predict the future with a fairly high margin of assertiveness by converting the appearance of comets into an external force which must be taken into account by astrologers and experienced seers.

In shamanism the appearance of a comet is indicative of good omens, because it brings with it fresh energies and renews the ancient energies that allow to develop clairvoyance and the spiritualistic qualities, a comet is seen like the mystical vehicle of a Deity that comes to supervise the World and put in control everything that is not fulfilling its function.
