zodiacal astrology is a chaldean tradition; the systems of western
astrology i've studied have little if any celtic influence.

the celts were big on solar and lunar cycles, but i've not run across
much discussion about the motions of the other bodies.

When Elvis Presley died in 1977, there were 37 Elvis impersonators in the
world. Today there are 48,000. If the current trend continues, by the year
2010, one of every three people in the world will be an Elvis impersonator.
