Gerolamo Cardano or Jerome Cardan or Girolamo Cardan (September 24, 1581 - September 21, 1602) was a celebrated Italian Renaissance mathematician, physician, astrologer, and gambler. See also:
wikipedia/Cardano.

One of the less known facts is that Cardano cast the horoscope of Jesus Christ and then concluded that the horoscope accurately predicted Jesus's fate as described in the Gospels

The horoscope is here, both in the old and new version. Maybe someone on this forum knows how to interpret them?

The horoscope is from a very interesting book:

Renaissance curiosa : John Dee's conversations with angels, Girolamo Cardano's horoscope of Christ, Johannes Trithemius and cryptography, George Dalgarno's Universal language, Wayne Shumaker, 1982

If this post draws enough interest, I will elaborate on this horoscope.

BTW: In Cardano's times this was considered heresy. I'm inclined to agree with the inquisition on this issue 8)
 
Must be pretty easy to predict the life of someone who's dead.
 
That's heresy too. "Dead" is the wrong concept in this context. :no-no:
Let's say: "It's easy to predict the life of someone whose bigraphy has been described by more than three authors." :D
