Imagine looking up at the sky and seeing patterns in the stars, that’s how ancient people thought about predicting the future. They watched the sun, moon, and planets move and used signs from nature to know what would happen next. Some even believed they could see the future in the flight of birds or the way fire burned.
Examples
- A farmer saw the moon was full and knew it meant a good harvest soon.
- A king watched birds flying in circles and believed it meant war was coming.
- Children played with stones to see if they would be lucky or not.
