Professor Fox nodded at Erica's question and turned his attention to the class. "Certainly. Well, human astrological divination is based on examining where a certain object is in the sky. We divide the sky into sectors corresponding to arbitrary points of time and then assign meanings to objects being in each sector. Here again we see division and dichotomy. Centaurs on the other hand, examine at once the relation all celestial bodies have on one another. Rather than dividing the sky and making assertions, they instead simply examine the whole of the sky. Is that a good enough answer for now, before we move on?" |
