In a relatively small space a fast paced narration illustrates how the destiny of men is influenced by the planets and the Gods, by the zodiac signs and the constellations.

The massage seems to be that the future of mankind is in the hands of celestial powers, that do however act in harmony in order to ensure a just outcome.
