People in the past used stars and signs to guess what might happen next. Like a kid watching the clouds to know if it will rain, ancient people looked at the sky and nature for clues about the future. They believed that things in the world, like animals, plants, or even gods, could help them know what was coming.
Examples
- Children drew lines on the ground to see what kind of future they would have.
