Comets ... and pretty much everything else ... were thought to be omens of something. Maybe a good omen, maybe a bad omen, maybe an indifferent omen; it kind of depended on who was asking and what the soothsayer thought that person wanted to hear. But (our ancestors thought) surely if the gods put something like that in the sky it had to mean SOMETHING, right?
