1.intro, setting, character, conclusion Long ago a ancient tribes used the stars to identify different gods and goddesses. Depending on what constellation that was out at night depended on what offerings needed to be made. Like the lion constellation requires a big game offering such as elk or deer and how the libra constellation requires a equal offering of metal and gems. This constellation is found in the southern half of the world. The time it would be seen is in the summer months between june and august. It is made with a total of twenty two stars. The constellation of the shield with the sword emblem represented the twin formed deity draco-luna. The shield represents the goddess luna known as the protector who brings peace, harmony,

There are tons of ideas for the meaning of The Star of David. Some Kabbalists believe that the six points represent God’s power over all six directions: north, south, east, west, up, and down. Some even think the two triangles represent humanity’s dual nature; good and evil.
If there is one great constellation, it is the constellation of Gemini. As a Zodiac Constellation, it is only visible during parts of the year. It's two brightest stars, Castor and Pollux, give it the name of the Twins. Anyone born in the end of May until late June is said to have two faces: one of Pollux's and one of Castor's.
This paper presents an analysis of visible and IR (JHKL) data for 2 Long Period Variables (LPV). The four pulsating variables chosen are classified as Miras. All Miras stars are Long period variables that exhibit a very large change in visible light because they are cool (less than or equal to 3000K), and so most of their radiation lies in the infrared. We are studying the Mira stars instead the irregular stars because to understand any star you must first start with the simplest model then expand upon that, Mira are relatively well-behaved long period variable.
The constellation that I chose is the Orion's Belt. I have chosen this constellation because of its orientation in the night sky. The myth behind the constellation is also intriguing to me. The Greek creation myth is one of my personal favorite. Orion's Belt is a group of three stars either vertically or horizontally aligned with each other. It usually disappears from the night sky when the Scorpion constellation appears.
I have chosen the 'Big Dipper'. This has been my favorite constellation ever since I was a young child. Probably because it has been the easiest for me to locate each night. It's the easiest to find and once you see it you can follow it to find the 'Little Dipper', in which I can find the North Star.
The constellation I have chosen is Corvus. Meaning crow or raven in Latin, Corvus has been a symbol of deviance and stealth for a long time. Corvus is part of the Hercules constellation. He is also typically depicted with two other constellations, Crater and Hydrus, as this is whom he shares the sky and story with. My choice in this particular constellation is to ease my curiosity as to why the raven or crow is what it is and why, despite being two different birds, they are depicted as the same.
The basic astrological assumptions are not hard to grasp. For if astronomy is the study of the movements of the heavenly bodies, then astrology is the study of the effects of those movements. The astronomers of the ancient world assumed a division of the universe whereby the superior, immutable bodies of the celestial worlds ruled over the terrestrial or sublunary sphere, where all was mortality and change. It was assumed that the stars had special qualities and influences which were transmitted downwards upon the passive earth, and which varied in their effect, according to the changing relationship of the heavenly bodies to each other. They were led to postulate a single system in which the seven moving stars or planet shifted their position in relation to the earth and each other, against a fixed backcloth of the twelve signs of the zodiac. There is nothing obscure about these general assumptions.
Astronomers have recognized 88 constellations in the northern and southern hemispheres over the past centuries. The constellations represent 14 men and women, 19 land animals, 9 birds, 10 water creatures, two insects, one head of hair, a dragon, a serpent, a flying horse, two centaurs, a river and 29 non-living objects. The practice was most likely common due to humanity trying to make sense of their world as well as using the stars to travel. People needed something to refer to back then, which is why the constellations were named. The ancient constellation name makers probably meant for them to be symbolic representations of their favorite animals or heroes from mythology and other stories of the time.

In ancient times, shields spoke yields of their owner and their beliefs. Sometimes, they even showed their owner’s eminent fate. In the Iliad and the Aeneid, the shields of heroes—Achilles and Aeneas—are described both similarly and differently. There are many similarities in their shields: both having received the shields from their goddess mothers. Both shields were made by Hephaestus/Vulcan. The shields were also described in depth, making the shields seem comparable. However, they differed in the images on the shields. In the end, the Iliad’s description of the shield was the more effective symbol of the two stories.
Everyone has a Zodiac sign that they base their daily horoscope on. But do they really know where those signs come from? First of all, all that horoscope stuff is really astrology, but the real signs come from the constellations on the ecliptic. In our celestial atmosphere there is the ecliptic which is the path of the stars and constellations. On this path there are twelve constellations including Virg...
It was not up until 200 years ago that people started identifying their zodiac sign with the position of the Sun. So when a person is asked what is his or sign, the Sun was passing through on the day that person was born. This can be demonstrated on a birth chart. Our birth charts are special "sky maps" which reflect the quality of the exact moment we drew our first breath. With that first breath, we each began our own incredible hero's journey through life on planet Earth. The birth positions of the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto all play their own unique symbolic roles as messengers and ambassadors of the universe.
When people believe in astrology, what they believe is that the planets and stars directly or indirectly influence their lives and determine what happens to them in life. (Weblinkers.com Enterprises, p.1) The stars are said to show guidance and meaning for the lives of people. (Woolfolk, p.297)
There is a circle in the center of the symbol, which represents the circle of life.
