"At Clonegal Castle in Ireland, it is Winter in the constellation of
Capricorn. Let us contemplate this mystery of the humble Earth at the far
distant stars of Capricorn, which some saw as a sea goat. Teachings given to us
by the Magi. For they would ask a simple person: "my friend what is that in the
sky?" They would say: 'it's goat's horns.' And the Magus would say, 'I will tell
you concerning that goat.' And so the starry book revealed myths not known to
astronomers, yet written in the Book of Fate. Despise not the myths of the
stars, for they were linked to the simple imagination of humble fellow friends
who gazed at the sky and called them names, and the teachings were given. And so
their souls were brought nourishment. Let us contemplate the Earth and the
constellation of Capricorn. . ."
