  Himself - Manley P. Hall - Opening Narrator : If you are a skeptic in matters of astrology, you will probably ask for concrete proof that astrological predictions have actually been made. These old books are the proof of such predictions. In the first place, we have dear old Mother Shipton. She was not very handsome. One of the greatest seers of all times. Living 1450 AD, she actually predicted the discovery of America, the discovery of gold in California, the invention of airplanes and submarines, the inventions of automobiles. She even went so far as to say that the time would come in the distant future - when women would cut their hair and wear trousers.
