Did you why the number 7 is so important in human culture?
Ancient observers noticed that seven heavenly objects (the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) moved at different paces in the sky both from each other and from the fixed stars beyond them.
Those #WanderingStars formed the first deities in many cultures.

Did you know that the #Planets were originally thought to be #WanderingStars?
Five wandering stars - #Mercury, #Venus, #Mars, #Jupiter, and #Saturn - were known to the ancients. To the unaided eye, these planets appear starlike. However, the planets moved differently and were called wandering stars. Our word "planet" comes from the Greek word #planetes, meaning "wanderer."
