And yet how few people realize the importance and significance of that event! Out of all eternity, how came it about that you were born just when you were? Why should that moment of time be set apart for your birth more than any other? Wise men who have thought on this question say that this cannot be due to mere chance there must be some reason, ; some law, at work. They set about ascertaining this law — — which relates to the time of birth and discovered it in the science of Astrology. Every one is born under slightly different influences and circumstances; so no two people are exactly alike. No matter whether they are members of the same family, they may be strikingly dissimilar, and outsiders would not recognize them as brothers and sisters. This,—says Astrology, is because the aspects of the heavens the influences brought to bear upon the infant — at the moment of birth are so different. Astrology was believed in by many of the wisest men in history. To test the claims of astrology, it is only necessary to have a personal reading made of the life. For this, the exact date and hour of birth is necessary 4 Introduction so that the various combinations and aspects of the planets may be figured out accurately; but, while this individu—al reading is, of course, by far the most satis- factory nevertheless, certain signs and aspects are said to influence all born on a certain day, in some degree. I shall try to outline very briefly some of these character delineations, in the pages which follow. — Astrology is believed in by all but the prejudiced by those who have never investigated its claims. It is an experimental science, like any other science; and its claims can be proved as readily as any other, if they be put to the test. Try for yourself, and you will soon prove the truth of these words! In the readings that follow, I do not doubt that the majority of my readers will see themselves painted in only too vivid colorings; — and if this is true of a —general reading unguided by any sure and positive data how much more certain and accurate would a reading be, based upon such facts The ! truth of astrology would soon be proved to sceptics, if they would but investigate its grand teachings. Adieu, gentle reader; may you learn and profit by the wisdom contained in the following pages. This wisdom is not mine; it resides in the great Universe of God; and I, the humblest of his servants, merely read and — interpret it in the language of the Earth for those yet living. peace be unto you. Leo Bernart. ASTROLOGICAL BIRTHDAY BOOK JANUARY 1 Born with great determination and strength of char- acter, you are a natural leader in most things and have a strength of personality which inclines you to the mili- tary life.

You are naturally, something of a fighter, but not unless you feel you have right on your side. You do not care much for the opinion of others, but are admired — by a large circle of friends for all that perhaps for this independence of character.

You are not naturally affectionate, .though you often do acts of kindness which you know will be appreciated. You are intensely interested in practical and material things, and this side of your nature you have probably developed until it dwarfs your spirit- ual side.

You will probably travel a little, but not very exten- sively. If you marry at all it will be practical, common- sense affair, in which romance does not figure very largely. On the other hand, you have a tender and refined streak in you, if it is touched, which surprises those who don't know you when they find it.

Born this day you really have exceptional talents, and you can become one of the great men or women of your time if you make up your mind to concentrate, study and ! 8 rAstrological Birthday Book work.
