Chazal explain that Israel has no Mazal. If you translate it literally it means Israel has no luck. In actuality what they're teaching us is that we are not subject to nature. Nature is a law and order to the way things behave. If you invest this much energy you obtain that much energy as a result. Newton, Action = Reaction. Midah k'neged Midah.
Bnei Yisrael is not subject to this simple law. Eretz Yisrael, as Rebbe Nachman and others teach, operates on the level of miraculous every single day.
This is why when we left Egypt (and on the first month of every year (Nisan)) we brought/bring the Pascal lamb, the Zodiac's representative for the month of Nisan, and we slaughter it.
