Quote:Actually heaven was both the sky and the afterlife. Rulers became stars and common souls became part of the Milky Way which the ancients correctly deduced was a group of stars. Meteors were seen as souls coming to earth to enter the body. The heavens had gates. Souls would enter via Cancer and leave via Capricorn.
The symbol for judgement was the scale. It is the constellation of Libra. It is where souls were weighed to sell if they could enter heaven. It is also harvest time when crops are weighed.
Interesting stuff, where did you get that info from.
BTW, have you pieced the story togther yet?
