You may be familiar with the constellations and shapes of the stars but do you know the stories that go with them? In the human world, these celestial objects have been given great significance.
I'm going to tell you the story of these five constellations in the stars right now.
This is the most common types of star. According to Greek mythology, there was a major conflict between Arcas and his mother within the house. As a result, Zeus, the king of the Gods, transformed both the mother and the son into bears and place them in the sky.
2. Orion's Belt: Zeus, the king of the Gods, gave Orion away when he was baby. He grew up to be an excellent hunter. As he grew older, he fell deeply in love with Artemis, a moon goddess. The Goddess' brother was not pleased and dispatched Scorpius to wage war on him and for this reason Orion was sent to the stars. It is assumed that the Egyptians built the great pyramids on the shape of the belt of Orion.
3. Draco the Dragon
In the stars, this is Ladon, the 100-headed dragon. The dragon must have been on duty, keeping an eye on an apple tree. The Dragon fell asleep while Hercules was playing music, and the apples were stolen. This enraged Hera, the Queen of the Gods, and she threw him up into the stars, where he still sits today.
4. Cassiopeia: Once upon a time, there was a Greek queen named Cassiopeia who was extremely proud of her daughter's beauty. She would also boast about it, claiming that only the most beautiful nymphs of the sea or gods were more beautiful than her. For this, the queen, her daughter Andromeda, and her husband Cepheus have been cast into the stars.
5. Pegasus
The Pegasus constellation was named after the winged horse in the Greek Mythology by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. The brightest star in the constellation, Epsilon Pegasi, forms the creature's nose. Olympus and Zeus transformed Pegasus into the famous constellation, and it also used to bring Zeus thunder and lightning whenever he desired or needed it.
There are far too many constellations to name but I've written about my favorites one. Aren't they so mesmerizing?
