Historians have long known that Jesus Christ must have been born between 1 and 4 BC. Recently, an Australian astronomer, Dave Reneke, has taken the Bible story of the birth of Jesus and used it to identify an astronomical phenomena that matches the description of the bright, slow-moving star that coincided with this birth.

Dave Reneke’s research points to 17 June 2 BC as being the most likely date, as the planets Venus and Jupiter were in the same location in the night sky and produced the effect of an unusually bright, slow-moving star.

While this is a plausible scientific explanation for the timing of the birth of Jesus, is it also a plausible astrological explanation?

Such a horoscope would have to account for the ability of Jesus to speak on spiritual matters, exhibit healing abilities, indicate a strong capacity for compassion, and show that his spiritual message could reach the masses. It should also show the potential for harm that could come to him.

In the horoscope of a person born on 17 June 2 BC, we find ample correlation with these traits. Watch the video horoscope to see the analysis of this horoscope.
