The constellation I am choose is Aquarius. I choose this because according to all information given, it is my zodiac sign. The Aquarius is one of the oldest constellations known, it's name is Latin for water carrier as the constellation is a representative for water. Still in the modern list of constellations, this one is also known as The Great One.
In Greek mythology, Aquarius is represented by a vase pouring water into another constellation known as the Piscis Austrinus, it is also believed to be connected with Troy, Troy was a boy tending to sheep when Zues (a Greek God), took interest in him and turned himself into a eagle and carried him to Mount Ide where he would serve drinks to Zues. One day he decides he doesn't want to anymore
I chose the constellation Andromeda because the back story and myths it has really fascinates me! I feel that some of the myths behind the consolations can be rather boring, but with the romance and danger all wrapped into one, I continue going back to it. This constellation is the 19th largest in the sky and is located in the first quadrant of the northern hemisphere. It takes seven-hundred-twenty-two square feet in the sky!
In today's society, constellations are known as a group of stars that when viewed from our planet earth, form a pattern that we can see at night with the unaided eye. There are also groups of constellation families; such as the Ursa major family, the Perusues Family, the Hercules Family, the Orion Family, the Bayer Group, the Heavenly Waters, the La Caille Family and finally the most known constellation group; the Zodiacal Family. The zodiacal family consists of the zodiac constellations signs. These signs usually describe your personality and who you are as a family. The constellation, Leo, is my zodiac sign, and in my particular interest for it depicts who I am. The Leo constellation is the twelfth largest constellation in the night sky and
In the beginning of his diary, he spoke of his regard for the Virgin, which is known as the Virgo. In his diary, Virgo was depicted as a beautiful woman and he equated her to Marian Maudsley. This partially accounts for his love of her. Leo said, “the signs of the zodiac, each somehow contriving to suggest a plenitude of life and power, each glorious, though differing from the others in glory. …And I remembered too…the magic with which they were then invested, and the tingling sense of coming fruition they conveyed— the lowly creatures no less than the exalted ones.” (Hartley. 19). This quote suggests that Leo saw the signs as equals, none greater than the other. However, soon after he can not decide whether he related to the archer or the water-carrier more, but he eventually puts down each of their respective professions he believed that they had. “The two men attracted and repelled me at the same time; perhaps I was jealous of them.” (Hartley. 21). He also refers to his imagination as being “passionately hierarchical” at that time. (Hartley. 19). He eventually refers to Marian’s lover, Ted Burgess as the water-carrier, or Aquarius. This is because Ted is a farmer and laborer. For example, when Leo falls off a haystack on Ted’s farm, Ted finds him while carrying “a pail of water in each hand.” (Hartley. 97). Later in life, Leo acknowledges that his saving of Leo was probably the
My favorite constellation by far is the Gemini constellation. The Gemini constellation is my favorite because my star sign is Gemini. And it is fairly easy to spot in the night sky, although the best viewing month is in February.
Gemini is the constellation I have chosen to use in my essay. The reason for that is my zodiac sign is Gemini, and it's the constellation I am most familiar with. Gemini is composed of several stars, the most popular being Pollux and Casper, the two 'heads' of the constellation. The greek myth where Gemini is orinated from is of two twin brothers -the stars- Pollux and Casper. The constellation is seen between the constellations, Taurus and Cancer.
I have chosen the constellation Leo. I have chosen Leo because it is my horoscope sign. The real name of the constellation Leo is leonis which in translation means "the lion". Leo's right ascention is 11 hours, and its declination is 15 degrees. Leo is made up of 11 stars(regulus, denebola, algiebra, zosma, ras elased australius, adhafera, chort, al minliar asad, alterf, ras elesed borialas, subra). Leo is also one of the 13 constellations of the zodiac.
I have chosen the Perseus Constellation. I chose that contallation because I have always liked the Greek Gods mythology. Perseus, named after the Greek Mythology hero, is a constellation in the Northen Sky. Perseus is bordered by Aries and Taurus to the south, Auriga to the east, Camelopardalis and Cassiopeia to the north, and Andromeda and Triangulum the west.
My favorite constellation would have to be Orion. I chose this because I've always thought it would be cool to be shooting down starry prey while soaring among the stars. Orion is a hunter. He is forever in the stars hunting down meals and criminals. To me, Orion seemed like a tough guy. He's by himself in the stars, waiting for someone or something to come his way and end his seemingly endless lonely universe. That's why I chose Orion and a little information on this great hunter.
1. I've chosen the constellation "Draco." I chose this one because it was the constellation that my mother always talked about when I was little. She'd tell me stories about it's stars and she'd always let me stay up late to look at it. Draco is the 8th largest constellation and has 9 stars, the brightest of which is Gamma Draconis. It belongs to the Ursa Major family.
The constellation that I have chosen is Capricornus. Capricornus is one of the twelve zodiac constellations, and it symbolizes the sea-goat. The best time to see this constellation would be at ten o'clock at night in September and October, especially if you live in the Northern Hemisphere. I chose this constellation because according to Astrology I am a Capricorn and thought it would be interesting to know more about the constellation relating to my zodiac sign. Capricornus has five stars with planets in it's constellation.
I've picked the constellation, Aquarius, as my topic for this assignment. I chose this star constellation because my sign is Aquarius, therefore I thought it would be fun and entertaining to do for the project and I would also love to learn more about my sign. The Aquarius is located in the Southern Hemisphere and is one of the oldest recorded constellation of the Zodiac. It is a very large constellation; it spreads out over 980 square degrees and it is the 10th largest constellation in the sky. There aren't many bright stars in the sky, so it's hard to see without a telescope in handy, but you can try and see if you can find it with the naked eye! The Aquarius was recorded during the second century by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy. The constellation name means "cup bearer" or "water bearer" in the Latin language. The
Aquarius is my favorite constellation because its my zodiac sign and so i feel more attached to it than others! Plus Aquarius in Fairy tail is pretty cool. Aquarius's name is Latin for "water bearer" and it's symbol is obviously water. The constellation lies by the constellations Pisces and Capricornus. The constellation is the 10th largest in the sky and was discovered by Ptolemy.
Cassiopeia is the constellation I have chosen. It is a very interesting constellation, comprised of various stars named with a Greek letter followed by Cassiopeiae (e.g. Alpha Cassiopeiae). The stars also have various traditional names of other origin, for instance Alpha is traditionally called Shedir from Arabic. I chose the constellation partly because I like the name, but it also has interesting origins and I am glad I looked up more details about it.
Aquarius watches over the world from the earth time January 20th to February 18th. She is always adorned in a blue flowing gown that floats above the ground as she does. Her hair billows in cyan tresses down her back. Aquarius rules with her emotions rather than her brain. She is kind and helpful towards others yet aloof. She is energetic but spends time alone to restore her power. Aquarius can see all problems from both sides so she solves many problems while ruling on earth. While on earth she causes the winds to be stronger
The constellation I have chosen is Cancer. I chose this constellation because it is my zodiac sign.

Cancer is Latin for "Crab", The name was chosen because the representation of the the constellation is in fact a crab. The constellation is 506 sq. degrees and made up of faint stars.
