On October 29, 1607, Cardinal Richelieu (Arman Jean-du-Plessis de Richelieu) defended his dissertation at the Sorbonne for a doctorate in theology. But it’s not about him, but about the fact that Cardinal Richelieu, a powerful first minister, used the services of astrologer Jean Baptiste Moren from Villefranche.
Morin began as a provincial physician, in whose head, unlike others, much more adventures were born than in the clinic there were patients. Dreaming of treasures hidden in the remote corners of Hungary, for several years he tried to find them with funds provided at his disposal by Claude Dormi, Bishop of Bologna, but to no avail.
Once, in one of the German inns, Morin was lucky enough to meet a Scotsman named Davidson, who was just as futile trying to grab a fortune by the tail. Both adventurers perceived this meeting as a gift of fate. “Why don't we switch roles? - suggested a smart Scot. “You will teach me the art of healing, and I will give you the key to the predictions of events.”
This key turned out to be astrology. The deal took place, and both partners kept their word. Returning to Paris, Morin proceeded to compile horoscopes.
This divine gift for those who know how to use it gave Morin a brilliant opportunity to show his abilities: Louis XIII, driving through Lyon, was seriously ill and was forced to linger in the city. Two foretellers of the lower class started a rumor about his imminent demise. Then, Morin sent the Queen Mother a horoscope testifying to the imminent recovery of the monarch with an indication of the date. Morean’s prediction was confirmed, and soon the king really recovered. From that moment, Morin came into fashion.
Among his clients appeared representatives of secular and ecclesiastical authorities, such as the Counts of Luxembourg and Liuin, Marshals Ledigier and Montmorency, Cardinals Beryul and Laroshfuko, Secretary of State Boutillieu de Chavigny, Guardian of the Seal Mariyak, Royal Secretary Louis Tronson. Even Descartes repeatedly turned to him for advice.
During this period of time, the political plans of France were largely hindered by the great-power ambitions of the Swedish king Gustav Adolf and the activity of the army commander in chief of the Austrian imperial house of Wallenstein. Morin predicted violent death for each of them. The execution was not long in coming: Gustav-Adolf died in 1632 at the Battle of Lutzen, and Wallenstein was killed in 1634 by order of the emperor, who suspected him of trying to take possession of the Bohemian crown.
Richelieu no longer had doubts about the reliability of Morena. Morin lived until 1656, remaining in the maintenance of the court and the first minister.
