(See also Astrology). The precise identification of the historical events described in the Centuries helps to make sense out of the whole. Out of context analysis always goes the same way: The interpreter uses a recent news or history to justify the validity of a quatrain. The opposite should be done. The study should first reveal what the quatrain means and then what historical event should be connected to it. The criteria used for regrouping the quatrains are based on some identified keywords and logic.
