Desperate for a glimpse into Adolf Hitler's unpredictable mind, British spies hired an astrologer during World War II to write horoscopes for him and other Nazi leaders.
The government rented the astrologer a hotel apartment on London's exclusive Park Lane. There, de Wohl (the hired astrologer) wrote horoscopes for Allied and Nazi leaders on paper with the letterhead "Psychological Research Bureau."
But de Wohl's predictions were often vague. His December 1942 prediction read: "The German astrologers must pray that enemy action does not force the Fueher into making important decisions within the first eight days of the month (of July), as this would lead to great disaster."
