Pentagram

I sat next to two elderly ladies. Very well dressed, their polite motions indicated a superior class and education. I could not help admiring their posture and gestures. The main attraction for me became their conversation. They discussed the planet Venus and the Pentagram. They talked about a period, a period of 8 years and few days to complete the pentagram. It is all connected to Venus westwards connection with the sun. Every period, one said, is about 584 days long and each period determine a different point of the pentagram.
It is very rear to hear such deep conversations in public. Were the ladies astrologers? Is that why we only see the planet Venus next to the moon only every so many years? Has our civilization developed with the study of the sun, the moon and stars. Is the whole world based on numeric figures that only very few people can read? Are the prophecies numbers of the bible connected to the celestial movement of the stars. The two elderly ladies fascinated me and opened a Pandora box in my own brain which I did not even know existed. I feel like a child at the WHY stage of life. I am thirsty for answers to the connections that overheard conversation caused me to think about. I was proud of my choice of restaurant that day for just listening to others I realized that my brain is still hungry for knowledge. All it needs it's a little stimuli. I wonder: is the Eastern Star a pentagram and was the Pentagon based on the Pentagram. Is every new point a new agenda for a new leader? That would make a lot of sense counting historical events and duration of civilizations. This heavy reflecting gave a headache. I better go back to my simple life and concentrate on the opening of my upcoming TINAHASIT VIRTUAL SHOP. Could be my lucky star will enlighten me with great ideas.
