Abraxas begetteth truth and lying, good and evil, light and darkness in the same word and inthe same act. Therefore is Abraxas terrible. YHWH to the Jews. IAO to the Greeks. According to the Chaldean Oracles: Abraxas is the Unbeing maker Arche of the gods and goddesses. The Chaldean Oracles assert the same as Hall and Jung of all the personalities combined into One personality: The bible also supports Jung, Hall and the Chaldeans: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

With the Sky Carriage he can be found and soon discovered as the star around which all others turn, while he seems to be the only one standing still.

The reason for this is that it stands exactly in the extension of the earth's axis, as shown in the drawing. This axis between north and south pole does not stand perpendicular to the orbit of Earth but is inclined - like a huge gyro the Earth rotates around its axis. One rotation of a gyroscope lasts 26, years; the "Spring Point" - March 21st - runs through all 12 zodiac constellations. So this day stood before in Taurus , then ran through Aries , stands today in Pisces and moves on to Aquarius.

The Leo stands in the sky, the little one above the back of the great one. Regulus R is considered the heart of the Great Leo. It is one of the brightest stars in the sky and is also called King's Star. In the fairy tales and fables of all peoples, the Leo is the king of the animals.

According to Greek legend, it was the first task of the hero Heracles to kill the invulnerable Nemish lion - when his arrow slipped, he bravely entered the lion's den and strangled him in his arms. The Untier's head became his helmet, the fur his coat. He has a sense of family and a warm-hearted disposition. His disposition is noble, his appearance is not free from a desire for prestige.

He is very proud and whoever offends him will not remain unscathed. He likes to be in the centre of attention, he's communicative and cheerful. Its deepest interior, however, is surrounded by an impenetrable wall. Cancer is a fairly inconspicuous constellation. According to Greek legend, he was close friends with Hydra and bravely helped her in the fight against Heracles , by nodding the hero several times in the heel - which Heracles found quite annoying.

In nature there are crayfish, crabs, knight crabs, the palm thief, who can fetch and open coconuts from the tree, lobsters and lobsters are among the many thousands of different species. The hermit crab spends its sensitive abdomen in the shells of porcelain snails or cockleshells and is constantly on the lookout for ever larger, well-fitting housings during the growing season. He is domestic, sensitive, sometimes also hypersensitive.

As a friend he is reliable and helpful, tender and faithful in love. He combines ingenuity with manual dexterity, is artistically talented and of great endurance. The Gemini can't be missed in the sky. Pollux P is one of the brightest stars hardly less bright is the interesting multiple system of Kastor K.

One large and two small stars orbit with invisible companions, probably planets, a common center. In the Greek legend of the Dioscury, the twins are the sons of Zeus and Leda , but only Pollux is immortal like his father. As Kastor falls in battle with the sharp-sighted Lynceus and the strong Idas, Pollux begs to Zeus , he also begs him to die because he loves the brother more than his life. Instead, Zeus to the brothers to share death and immortality with each other: Together they spend one day each in underworld and one day on Earth. In his soul, high ideals fight with selfish impulses.

Only at a more mature age does he find harmony. Mental agility and sociability make life easy. This extensive constellation was called Taurus before most constellations had a name. His heart is the luminous Aldebaran A , a so-called red giant of immense heat. According to ancient Sumerian legend, the godfather Anu creates the celestial beast, who is supposed to protect Ishtar against their attackers.

In the Greek legend Zeus turns into a bull to kidnap the enchanting Europe. A son of this adventure is Minos. When he becomes king of Crete, he refuses to give thanksgiving to the gods. As a punishment, his wife gives birth to the Minotaur - a monster with a bull's head and a human body to which young girls and boys are sacrificed in the labyrinth.

He loves all his loved ones with pleasure, can separate from nothing and nobody, is tender, passionate, jealous - a tireless worker when the task tempts him - and bossy. The Aries is an inconspicuous constellation. It has its great importance from the Aries period, in which years ago calendars and zodiacs were established. At that time, the spring point was marked by the ram. Even today, the celestial orientation of Aries time is still the basis of all astrological calculations.

After the Aries Phrixos and Helle had flown over the sea, it was transferred to heaven. From then on his golden fur hung in a holy tree and was guarded by dragon. Jason - with the help of the Argonauts and the sorceress Medea - managed to rob the golden fleece. So he passed the test of courage demanded of him and became king of Jolkas. Courage, enthusiasm, determination and good team spirit make him a successful man. With a thirst for adventure and strong self-confidence, he is exciting in love - but also quite demanding. The Pisces are not a small constellation, but they do not have a particularly bright or remarkable star.

Since the vernal equinox has been in this sign for about years, we live - astrologically seen - in the age of fish. In the biblical story of creation, Moses tells us how GOD commands the Water even before the creation of animals and humans to "excite themselves with living and weaving animals". Already in B. Greek philosophers develop the nowadays generally valid theory that all living beings have evolved from the Water.

He is cheerful and modest, loves to socialize and is a witty conversationalist. His penchant for dreams makes him receptive to art, but does not interfere with his sense of reality. In love he is tender and considerate. His silence makes him a trustworthy interlocutor.

The Aquarius climbs over the horizon on autumn evenings. Sadalsud S announces the rainy season and in Arab astrology means "happiest star in the world". The Aquarius refers to the mystery of birth: Then the Age of Aquarius will begin, bringing peace, happiness and prosperity with it.

The mythology of all ancient folk tales enlivens seas, rivers and ponds with human-like water spirits. A thirst for research and practical reason make him a cool observer. He always adapts his views and behaviour to the latest findings. The Capricorn was only recently created from the goatfish of the Babylonian zodiac. Greek mythology connects the constellation with Pan, the all-embracing concept of the oldest natural religions and goat-shaped shepherd god.

He once followed Syrinx with relish - but the shy nymph turned into a reed. Pan cut himself out of it the shepherd's flute, on which from now on loving meadows played. Out of the darkness of long forgotten myths comes Aiga, with which he produced Aigipan, the goatfish. Diving out of the sea waves Aigipan blew terrifyingly on the conch horn, the enemies of Zeus put the enemies of titanium fight in panic and was moved to heaven as a constellation for thanks.

But his horns and goats' feet live on in devil. He fulfils tasks conscientiously and loves love and success. He is reluctant to make decisions, is musically - and stubborn. In the constellation of the Sagittarius lies today the winter solstice, to which the ancient peoples of the north burned the winter and lovers jumped through the fire.

According to Greek tradition, the Sagittarius belongs to the mountain people of the Centaurs. Once upon a time, the King of the Lapiths invited the wild horses to his wedding.

Since they were not accustomed to wine, they quickly got drunk and violently tried to rob the country's daughters. After a bloody struggle they were driven out by the Lapiths. Some of them retreated to the volcanic mountains of Magnesia. There they guarded one of the entrances to underworld and pursued the wicked with their arrows. The others settled under the guidance of the wise Chiron in the beautiful Arcadia. He pursues tasks with determination, even higher ideals. He has a great sense of duty, he is ambitious, successful, superior - but can sometimes lose self-control.

In the Scorpio there is one of the most magnificent stars in the sky, Antares A , next to many bright stars. It is a double star: A hot sun circulates around a relatively cool, red giant. In the ancient Sumerian Gilgamesh epic, the Scorpio guards guard the gate of Mount Maschu, to which the Sun enters and exits daily. When Gilgamesh asks for admission, the scorpion woman checks his innermost essence, then the scorpion man opens the gate and carefully describes to the hero the lonely way through the mountain interior - the night - to the sun god.

In the Greek Orion myth the mighty hunter boasts that he can kill all animals. When Orion also follows Pleiades , Gaia finally orders the scorpion to execute him. In his work, he is reliable and of rational consequence - in his dear friend, faithful and selfless in marriage - he is a little too self-critical.

The constellation of the Libra in Arab astrology was called "Chelai" - scissors - and belonged to Scorpio , who according to Greek tradition had to execute the judgement of the gods. In Roman mythology, the Libra is the emblem of Justitia, the goddess of justice. Legend has it that in the Iron Age it was the last of the Celestials to leave Earth , filled with crime, to settle in the sky as a luminous sign. Works of art from later times gave her the blindfold - above all to remind us not to judge people by their worldly prestige - but perhaps also to spare the goddess the sight of imperfect human justice.

Quick calculation of complex financial indicators

In his job and love he is characterized by harmony, love of truth, a sure sense of judgement and adaptability. He rarely shows weaknesses in decision-making or prejudice. Spica S , the spike is the brightest star in the virgin and one of the brightest in the sky, which is why the constellation was originally called "spike". When the oldest peoples settled down, farming was mainly in the hands of women.

In many cases, the maternal law applied and the spike was the symbol of powerful fertility goddesses. They were served by chaste, men-despising priestesses immortalized in the myth of the warlike people of the beautiful Amazons, who feared love and hated men. The Greeks traced the beginning of cereal cultivation back to Demeter and worshipped the goddess in the oldest secret cult of Greece - the eleusinian mysteries - following the grain harvest, a season in which the Sun was the sign of the virgin.

Reasonable and practical at work - shy and reserved in love - caring in marriage. Love nature, is a little too sober. The Great Bear never sinks in the northern sky and is always good to see. Its brightest stars form the Sky Carriage , with which the can be found.

It stands in the extension of the back car stars and forms the tail point of the Little Bear. Kallisto was the lovely princess of Arcadia. Often and gladly she wandered through the native forests without knowing that Zeus observed her well. She grew up, got married, had a son - Arkas - and became more and more beautiful until finally Hera - Zeus?

She turned Kallisto into a shaggy bear. A few years later, Arkas almost shot his own mother in the hunt - but Zeus turned him into the Little Bear and moved both of them to heaven. Fiercely angry, Hera forbade the constellations from ever coming to the other side of heaven. The romance of Helios with the beautiful Egyptian Klymene is Phaeton. He grew up fatherlessly and suffered greatly under the mockery of other children. As a young man he set out to visit his father. Far behind India he reached the Sun God's palace when he climbed into his golden chariot to embark on the daily journey to heaven.

Phaeton asked the father to be allowed to drive the car only once. Helios , who had neglected him for so many years, retired with a heavy heart. Boldly Pheaton scurried away and immediately burned a large scratch in the sky, the Milky Way. Frightened, he directed in the other direction and set Africa on fire. Since then, the people there have been blackburned. Zeus hurled a lightning bolt and Phaeton crashed into Eridanus. The burnt-out celestial carriage came to a standstill at Great Bears.

Hephaistos had to forge a new car for the sun god in his volcanic workshop. The Cup is a smaller constellation in the southern sky. Cup and vine are symbols of the Dionysus. The contradiction of the numerous Greek myths about his birth and his life suggest his origin from Far Eastern natural religions. He traveled with a strange entourage: Satyr was related to Pan , later on he was called Faun by the Romans; Silen had similarity to Centauren , and the maenad loved flowing oriental robes, as well as Dionysos.

Women often joined the maenads to the sorrow of their husbands. At wild orgies in the mountains at night, they were furious, danced to the point of senselessness and tore animals to pieces, even people they thought were animals. Wine and religious delusion led to visions, expansion of consciousness - not infrequently to insanity, the "weapon of Dionysus". The Romans took over his cult, called him Bacchus and celebrated the dissipated Bacchanalia.

The nine-headed snake lived with her boyfriend, the Cancer around Marsh of Lerna.

Heracles drove them out of their camp with the burning arrow and hacked into their heads with the sword. But for every head he took off, two new heads grew back. The Cancer constantly nipped him in the foot. Then Heracles called his friend Jolaos to help him, who burned out the Hydra's necks with torches. Now no more heads could grow back. Only one of the heads was immortal, buried under a large stone. Then Heracles split the fuselage and plunged his arrows into the poisonous bile of the hydra.

Many years later this became his own doom. When his young wife Deianeira was shamelessly harassed by Nessos , Heracles shot him with a poison dart. When dying Nessos the unsuspecting advised to use his blood as a love spell, which she did. Sirius S is the brightest star in the whole sky and one of our Sun.

It is a double star surrounded by a white dwarf with superheavy matter. The Great Dog is Lailaps. Zeus gave it to Europe when he left it. Lailaps had the wonderful gift that he couldn't escape. But he was hired for a vixen with the no less wonderful ability that she could never be caught.

If Zeus hadn't intervened and moved the animals to the sky, they would have died painfully of exhaustion during their endless hunt. The Small Dog is Cerberus, which guarded the entrance to Hades. He greeted entering souls wagging their tails - but when they tried to leave Hades , he ate them up. With the old Teutons, dogs were regarded as "ghost-sighted", which could explain their sometimes incomprehensible barking. Since time immemorial, this constellation has been called "Charioteer".

However, since several Greek charioteers are disputing the fame of being immortalized in it, the honour is to be given to the ferryman, who has an important role in the oldest myths. In ancient times, it was thought to be surrounded by a river, on the other side of which the underworld began.

In the Sumerian myth, the ferryman's name is Urschanabi. He takes the hero Gilgamesh, who is looking for eternal life, to the other side and back again - and even stabs him into that bay, where Gilgamesh plunges stones in weight and picks the herb from the seabed. Unfortunately, it is stolen from him shortly afterwards by snake. In the Greek myth, his name is Charon. To him Hermes leads the souls of the deceased, which he translates against an obolos - which is why it was very important to give the deceased some small change into the grave.

Orion with the three belt stars is a magnificent winter constellation. Rigel R and Betelgeuse B are both supergiants of that rare,"mortal" size which can become a Supernova. In the Greek myth, Orion is a son of Poseidon and lover of Eos. In the sporting competition, he gained the admiration of the hunting goddess Artemis.

Ruthlessly, however, he not only pursues animals, but also the shy Pleiades , who are afraid of him, until at last Gaia the Scorpio orders his end. Orion is the Greek name of the powerful hunter Nimrod, great-grandson of Noah and ancestor of the African peoples, founder of the Assyrian Empire and builder of the Tower of Babel.

In cuneiform script, the clay-panel libraries of Nineveh report on the cruel acts of his successors, but also on the culture of the subjugated people, of magic and astronomy. The hare is a bright constellation between Orion and Great Dog. The honour of shining eternally in the sky is due less to his speeding than to his fabulous fertility.

A Hare plague is reported, which caused ecological difficulties on the small island of Leros near Karia - a part of today's Turkey. First, only one citizen brought a pregnant female hare from the mainland. The islanders liked the animal, they started to breed it. Soon, however, it reproduced so much that the crops were no longer sufficient to feed people and rabbits. The islanders asked Artemis for help in case of starvation. The goddess of hunting advised them to form a chain and drive the animals into the sea with sticks.

Thousands of them drowned there. But they sent a rabbit to the sky. Thus Orion has a victim that reproduces faster than it can shoot - to warn all hunters to cherish, but not exterminate the animals. In the constellation Perseus stands Algol A , which in ancient times was called "Demon" because it blinks. Algol is a multiple system in which a dark star orbits a bright double star, hiding it from the earth every two days for 10 hours.

Zeus turned into golden rain to cheat on his wife with Danae. Hera found out anyway. Thus Perseus, Danaes son, did not have an easy but heroic life. Immediately after birth, he and his mother were taken to the sea in a crate. They were rescued, but as soon as he grew up, he had to fetch the head of Medusa - her sight turned every mortal man into stone.

But the gods helped him: Hermes lent him wing shoes, magic sword and camouflage helmet - on the advice of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, he looked at Medusa only in the mirror of his shield, separated the snake-haired head from the fuselage unharmed and saved Andromedas life. The Pleiades are a small open cluster of stars near the Taurus. Their stars bring the nebula of gas to light them up like ghosts. With the naked eye, six to eight stars can be distinguished, which is why they were also called eye examiners in the ancient times of the Seven Sisters.

Atlas was the giant who carried the sky on his shoulders. From Perseus he was later transformed into the Atlas Mountains to avoid feeling the oppressive load. Orion saw her once on a river bank when they bathed and sang with their mother, half hidden by morning mist veils. He broke lusts through the bushes, but they fled scared.

For seven years they ran away from him, who tirelessly pursued them all over Africa, until Zeus brought the exhausted to safety in the starry sky. There he still follows them at a safe distance. The Star River Eridanus stretches far beyond the southern and the northern sky. It is the mirror image of all the great rivers of the earth, because also in it many springs unite to a shimmering band, which ends after numerous loops and sweeps in a wide estuary. Legend has it that Phaeton was flung out of Zeus with a flash of lightning from Sky Carriage , after he set the Earth in flames in his youthful carelessness.

Like a burning torch he fell into the Eridanus and drowned miserably after his careless journey. His half-sisters, the Heliades, left the palace of the sun god and lined the river bank. They wept so ceaselessly for Phaeton that their tears turned into amber and they turned into poplars themselves. Zeus but angrily let go of all rivers to delete the burning Earth. This is how the Flood came into being in the Greek myth. The small but conspicuous constellation Cassiopeia wanders behind Cepheus around the Polar Star , depending on the celestial state it resembles a maternal M or a sad W.

Kassiopeia was the wife of Cepheus , who was king in Ethiopia many years ago. Her only child was Andromeda , a beautiful daughter who loved her dearly. In fact Andromeda was of such charm that the happy mother once proudly proclaimed that she was even more beautiful than the Nereids. This would have stayed stuck in her throat, because the Nereids were the sister-in-law of Poseidon , the feared god of the sea.

Of course, he heard the pronouncement and was very angry about it. He sent his most gruesome sea monster and demanded that Andromeda be sacrificed to him, otherwise he would have the kingdom devastated. The desperate mother of the state had to bow to him. The history of the wonderful rescue. The triangle of the south consists of bright stars and can only be seen in the southern starry sky. It is reminiscent of the great scholars of antiquity. Without the aid of technology, almost without instruments, they came through observation, reflection and exchange of ideas to a wealth of essential findings, which have not lost their validity to this day and are the foundations of science and research.

At first they called themselves "wise men". Pythagoras, who was no less wise than his predecessors, was the first to humbly call himself "friend of wisdom": At that time, this profession was much more versatile than it is today. The philosophers explored all branches of science and spirit.

Among other things, they did mathematics, which at that time was as much as astronomy and astrology combined. They investigated the triangle and found that its many-sided relationships, such as the size of the angles or the length of the sides, are interdependent. With an inconsiderate exclamation, the queen Cassiopeia aroused the wrath of the sea god. That some mortal virgin was more beautiful than his sister-in-law, the Nereids, he could not and did not want to go unpunished.

So he ordered a huge whale fish to first of all unsettle the coasts of the kingdom, knock over fishing boats and destroy harbours. Afterwards the animal should swim to a certain rock and eat a princess chained there. The whale fish did as he was told. But when he came to the rock he was unlucky that besides Princess Andromeda a certain Perseus was waiting for him.

He pulled something out of a bag that was curiously curling. In anticipation of his favourite dish, the multi-armed squid, the whale looked at it greedily - and was quickly transformed by the snake-haired head of Medusa into a rocky island. Poseidon but put his obedient animal under the stars. Kepheus was the king of Ethiopia a long time ago, a man who had a hard time with his old age. One day a delegation of fishermen came to him, complaining about a huge Whale , which destroyed property and human life on the coasts.

The helpless king set off on the arduous journey to Delphi to question the famous oracle. He hurried back and told his wife Cassiopeia of Poseidons monstrous demand. But the welfare of the land was first - the royal parents had to chain their only child to a rock and leave it to its horrible fate. I guess no one closed their eyes that night. When at an impossible time an unknown man burst into the royal bedroom and around the hand of the princess Andromeda stopped, the parents promised him everything if he would only save her, which he did. He didn't even want the kingdom. The beautiful princess had bravely bowed to the oracle and was ready to die for the good of the people.

Alone in the dark night she lost courage. She thought of her poor mother and started to sob. That heard Perseus , who just flew with wing shoes high above her, glad about his victory, the dangerous trophy in his hand. He came down and found the enchanting Andromeda, who was helplessly chained to the rock and awaited her certain death.

Controlling

Both were love at first sight. Perseus comfortingly pressed her hand to hold it a few minutes later in the palace of her parents - not without getting a bag that concealed the head of Medusa from the eyes of her loved ones. At dawn he held it in front of the monster's nose, which turned into stone as expected. After the wedding Perseus founded their own kingdom, in which many children got into and were very happy.

Pegasus was the winged steed of antiquity, always at the service of the nine Muses of the arts. Four muses inspired literature with him, two theater, one song and one dance with him - and one promoted astronomy. As a guest at the court of Tyrins he gave a basket to the royalty. Angry, she demanded his death. Her husband, however, did not want to violate the right of hospitality and sent Bellerophontes with his sealed death sentence to King Jobates in Lycia. Jobates didn't open the letter until the ninth day - and then he didn't want to kill the loved one either.

Instead, he asked him to free his country from the fire-breathing chimera. After a strange dream, Bellerophontes woke up on Pegasus? He shot the beast in high flight and became very famous. But this rose to his head and he steered the winged horse to heaven. Angrily Zeus sent a brake that pricked Pegasus. He bucked and dropped Bellerophontes, who fell hard to the ground. The constellation Swan assumes the center of our Galaxy. Deneb D is one of the brightest stars in the sky, despite its immense distance.

From Deneb to Earth a ray of light takes years. The fastest aircraft would have to travel million years for this route. In the Greek myth Zeus turned into a swan to seduce Leda, of which his god's wife is once again not supposed to notice anything. The bathing Leda is happy about the confidence of the beautiful animal and can be caressed. Then she gives birth to two shining eggs. For some the twins , for others the beautiful Helena, around which the Trojan war breaks out. Lohengrin comes from the British myth of the Holy Grail.

A swan pulls his own swan and no one is allowed to ask about the whereabouts of his journey. The folk tales of all countries enchant brothers in swans, redeemed by silent sisters. The Dolphin is a small, very beautiful constellation, and not too far from Lyra. Arion lived around BC at the court of Corinth and was the most famous songwriter of his time. They were reluctant to let him travel to Sicily for a singing contest.

There he sang himself precious prizes and embarked again for his journey home. But his treasures did not leave the captain alone. On the high seas he decided to throw Arion overboard and granted him one last wish. Arion took his Lyra and played a melancholy farewell song. He used it to lure a flock of dolphins. When the captain stumbled upon the artist from the Rehling, they took him on their backs, fished the Lyra out of the waves, and carried him all the way across the sea to Corinth, while Arion sang and played for them.

A little later his ship landed there as well. The captain was executed. The gods immortalized Arion on the dolphin's back in the sky. In mythology and heraldry the eagle is of great importance. In the Nordic legend it is a symbol of Odin, the wisest of the Aesir and father of mankind. He sits at the top of the ashes of Yggdrasil and is all on earth.

As a symbol of earthly power, Ptolemy I appointed him as the heraldic animal of Egypt. The Roman emperors and commanders adorned themselves with eagle standards. He also appeared to Napoleon as a worthy symbol of his power. In the sky the eagle is a small, very bright constellation with Atair A , one of the brightest stars of all. Atair is the eagle of Zeus. Prometheus was a nephew of Zeus and created humans from clay. When he stole it for their sake Fire from the hearth of the gods, Zeus chained him to a rock for punishment.

Every day the eagle came and fed on the liver, which grew back at night to the subhereditary. He hung there for 30, years until Heracles shot the eagle and freed Prometheus from his torture. Wega W in the Lyre is the brightest star of the northern sky and will take the place of Polar Star in 12, years due to the gyroscopic motion of the earth's axis. The lyra is a stringed instrument and was as popular in antiquity as the guitar is today. Orpheus was able to tame wild animals with his lyre-play, even stones and trees followed him if he wanted to.

He was one of the Argonauts - through his game he fell asleep ever tired dragon , who watched over the golden fleece. After this trip Orpheus married Euridike, who was all too soon bitten by a poisonous snake deadly. Orpheus entered the underworld and enchanted Hades and Persephone with his moving game. They allowed Euridike to follow him, but he was not allowed to look around until they were on Earth. Since he could not hear her step, he suddenly doubted whether she was still behind him.

He looked around - and her shadow disappeared forever in the darkness. The constellation of the Dragon hugely crouches over the Polar Star and reflects the numerous dragon monsters of mythology, whose task is always to guard gold treasures or audible virgins. In the Greek legend, a dragon guards the golden apples of the Hesperides and is killed by Heracles - another dragon guards the golden fleece.

In Confucius, the dragon is a symbol of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. In ancient China, the national coat of arms is considered lucky. With the earth-destroying dragon worm Dahaka, ancient Persia connects a special dragon cult. In Nordic mythology he spans the whole earth as a midgard snake. The task of the heroes is to destroy dragons. Besides the gold treasure, the dragonslayer also receives secret gifts: The pleasure of the dragon's heart brings animal language to life.

Coating with dragon's blood makes it invulnerable as Siegfried in the Nibelungenlied says. But also church saints such as St. George have overcome dragons. M 13 in the constellation of Hercules is the most beautiful globular cluster of the northern sky.

It is one of the 18 galaxies of our local system and consists of countless "red giants", the oldest of all stars. Alkmene believed to be embraced by her husband Amphitrion, into whom Zeus had turned to cheat on his wife Hera. Heracles, the child of this fling, has been haunted by Hera's enmity for life. Immediately after his birth, she put two snake in his cradle, which he crushed easily. He grew to enormous physical strength.

Twelve heroic deeds were assigned to him, in the course of which he was victorious in countless other adventures. After a glorious life he died from the poison of Hydra. His deification was taken over by the Romans. They merged with him with their marriage god Hercules. In astrology he was equated with his twelve deeds on the way of Sun through the zodiac. The contiguous constellations Serpent and Ophiuchus dashed line are listed individually in astronomy.

Classical mythology connects both constellations with the Greek Asklepios, which the Romans call Aesculap. He enjoys worship similar to God; his landmark is the serpent staff. The famous physician is considered the son of Apollo - the god of youth, healing and divination and head of the muses. He's presumptuous enough to bring a dead man back to life. Zeus punishes the miracle worker with a deadly lightning bolt - Apoll puts him under the stars.

In the Sumerian myth the serpent steals the man's weed - it sheds its skin to eternal youth and immortality, while man must accept death. The characteristic constellation of the Northern Crown is also called "Diadem der Ariadne". Behind the back of the king of Athens, Poseidon seduced the wise Aithra. She gave birth to Theseus, who was brought up by the wise Chiron , and who accomplished many heroic deeds before he mingled among the victims Athens had to send to Crete for Minotaurus.

From the amphitrites, who, unlike Hera, did not add anything to her husband's side leaps, he received a bright golden tiara. In Crete, Theseus won the love of Ariadne, the beautiful sister of the monster. She gave him good advice and the ball of thread. In the labyrinth the tiara lit up in front of him. Theseus put the Minotaurus and killed him - and found with the thread the exit again.

He kidnapped Ariadne and gave her the tiara for her wedding. When she got pregnant, he left her. Dionysos after them and threw the tiara into the starry sky. The Crow is a small constellation near the Cup on the southern starry sky. In the Sumerian Flood Report, Dove , swallow and raven are successively sent out by the ark to find land. Swallow and Dove come back, not until the crow is absent, Utnapischtim also releases the oth After the biblical deluge, Noah lets the crow fly back and forth until the waters have fallen, only then does he send the Dove which returns with the olive branch.

In Germanic mythology, the crows Hugin and Munin sit on Odin's shoulders, fly out every day to explore time and are a symbol of Odin's omniscience. In Greece, the crow is considered a wise, prophetic bird and is sacred to the Apollo.

But because he denigrates his mistress, Apollo transforms his original white plumage into black and places it in the starry sky as a warning to malicious chatterers. The Wolf is a constellation of the southern sky.
