The Origins of the Caldian Oracles

Caldians could also be a reference to the Caldian oracles, it seems to me. Unappius doesn't really emphasize astrology very much. There is a background concern. It's clear that Yumblikos and all his followers have some scientific interest in astrology. But it's kind of a low level demiurgical. Like, we're going to look after the vines using this knowledge from our Caldian lore but what's really important is what we can do to this human soul.
