Astra and dis-astra

"When beggars die there are no comets seen;
The heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes."
It's not clear yet whether Comet ATLAS will put on a great show, so in the meantime here are some terrific Hubble shots of an interstellar comet, Borisov.

    This is often why comets were a very very bad omen to the powers that be in medieval and Hermetic eras.

    Not even vedic astro observations have figured out what these are.
