Gustave Holst’s ‘The Planets’ has seven movements. Does not include the earth. Surprisingly, the inspiration was not fully derived from astronomy. The Planets was based on an interpretation of the astrological essence of each planet in the solar system as known at that time. Uranus was characterized as
“Uranus, the Magician”; boisterous, powerful and icy.

We'll never get back to the Earth no more...

We'll have to fall in love on Uranus
