Liane's Corkey Trivia
  In ancient societies, it was the job of the King to serve as an advocate for their subjects (ie. the regular humans) with the gods who controlled the forces of nature.  Essentially, it was the King's job to ensure that crops were bountiful and also to manage theBiodynamic Moon Chart generated wealth for the benefit of that society.  In those ancient farming societies, the powers of the sun, the moon, and the celestial constellations were recognized as vital to the production of a good harvest.  (This celestial concept comes down through the ages to us in modern Biodynamic farming techniques still in use today in, among other things, the production of wine.)
