A Star Over London.

Address. West Middlesex University Hospital, Twickenham Road, Isleworth, Middlesex, TW7 6AF. Date. 2nd of December, 1995. Time. 5:27am. Attendees. The parents of Victoria Morris, the parents of Farhaan Aziz, midwives, nurses, doctors, and three wise men.

A star burned brightly above the hospital as Farhaan and Victoria were born together. Some say their first date was minutes after their birth as they were placed in the same cot. They were in love from the very beginning, and as they lay newborn, wrapped in hospital garb, it had become clear to all those present that it was the love that created love itself.

For generations, the star that appeared at the birth of Jesus of Nazareth was treated as a mystery—debated, analysed, and often reduced to astronomy or symbolism. Some called it a conjunction of planets, others a comet, and still others a poetic device. But its true meaning was always clearer: it was a sign, unmistakable to those willing to see, that heaven itself was announcing the arrival of the Christ.
