Is it true that Zhuge Liang watches the celestial phenomena at night?

Zhuge Liang predicted the future by observing the sky at night, but today's science can't explain it.

The essence of so-called night astrology is to predict the future according to the position and brightness of constellations. So far, we can't explain the predictions made by some famous people in history, such as Dong Fangshuo and Liu Bowen.

Of course, the divination of Zhantian 16 is really amazing. The hexagrams of Zhantian 16 left by Zhou Wenwang in the alternating period of Shang and Zhou Dynasties (only 8 hexagrams left in later generations) are amazing. Some of them are not mentioned in the official history, but in many works handed down from later generations, such as Dongfang Shuo and Zhuge Liang, they all mentioned that they were influenced by Zhou Wenwang's divination 16, which is basically the same. Stargazing at night is an ancient behavior.

It's just that we modern people always want to explain many things in a scientific way, but in fact, many things can't be explained by science!
