Hilter
Louis De Wohl had a tenure as an astrologer for the British intelligence agency MI5 during World War Two. He was recruited initially as an informant because he was casting horoscopes for people of interest to MI5. However, it was believed that Hitler was strongly influenced by astrology, and hence might be likely to choose 'lucky' astrological dates for major ventures.
