The constellation of myth in charge of marriage _ What is the constellation of myth in charge of marriage?

Aries constellation

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and the seat of the ancient vernal equinox. It is the golden sheep in Greek mythology.

In Greek mythology, Aries refers to a sheep with magical ability to help a pair of suffering brothers and sisters out of danger. King Atamas of ancient Greece married Nepele, a fairy in the clouds, and gave birth to twins. His brother is Prica and his sister is Heller. However, Atamas abandoned the chaos from the beginning, drove Princess Nephir out of the palace and married Princess Ina of Thebes. Ina abused his ex-wife's children and regarded them as eyesores. When Princess Ina had a child of her own, she decided to kill the only twin left by Princess Nephir. She paid the fortune teller to complain to the king: If the children born to the former princess were not sacrificed to Zeus, the gods would be furious and there would be famine. Nephiel then asked Hermes, one of the Olympic gods, for a sheep with golden hair and wings, and told his children to run away on a flying sheep with golden hair. On the way, his daughter Hu Lei accidentally fell into the sea, and only Prica fled to Colt, where she was welcomed by the king and married the princess. Prica thought of God's grace and offered the Golden Sheep to Zeus, so the Golden Sheep was listed among the stars. Prica also gave golden fleece to King Colz, who hung it in the sacred garden of Mars, guarded by a dragon that stayed up all night.

Later, Jason told a wonderful adventure story in order to take away the wool of Golden Sheep. Aries is also called Aries.

Taurus constellation

There are two theories about the identity of Taurus.

One is that there is a beautiful country along the Behnas River, which flows through Mogna. King Behnas has a beautiful princess named Europa. Zeus, the Lord God, admired the beauty of the princess and wanted to catch her, but he was at a loss. The jealous queen Hera will be furious when she finds out. One day, when Europa and the maids were playing by the sea, they saw a strong and handsome cow as white as snow and looked at her with extremely gentle eyes. Actually, this cow was changed by Zeus. Europa couldn't help walking to the tame white cow and stroking it gently. Because the bull is very clever and docile, the princess climbed onto the bull's back and tried to ride it. Suddenly, Niu Ben ran and finally jumped into the Aegean Sea. The princess hugged the cow tightly, and all the creatures in the sea came out to pay tribute to Zeus. The princess finally knew that the cow was the incarnation of Zeus. After arriving in Crete, she married Zeus, lived a happy life and gave birth to three sons for Zeus. Europa was the first human to reach this land, and Europe was also commemorated in her name. As for the white cow that Zeus became, it became Taurus.

On the other hand, Taurus is Poseidon's punishment for the king of Crete. On the land of Crete, there was a monster with a cow's head, which ate virgins, so the king had to ask Diladas to build a maze to trap the bull (it is said that even Diladas could not walk out of the maze, so he had to build wings to fly out), and he needed to pay tribute to the virgins every year to feed it. Theseus, the prince of Athens, is determined to kill pests and intends to blend in with boys and girls. Princess Crete fell in love with him and gave theseus a sharp knife and a red ball. Theseus killed the cow with this knife and followed the red line. Of course, the princess finally married theseus!

Gemini

As the name implies, Gemini is indeed a pair of twins, and it is the masterpiece of playboy Zeus.

One day, he turned into a swan and had a tryst with the beautiful princess Sparta. As a result, the princess gave birth to two eggs, one hatched Helen, a peerless beauty who led to the Torcan War, and the other jumped out of her twin brother. The princess gave her brother Caster to her husband and her brother Polucus to Zeus, so that Polucus had an immortal body. When they grow up, they all become very brave soldiers. Katos is good at riding and Cong is good at boxing. They made a lot of contributions in the war, but Katos was unfortunately killed in a battle. Cong is very sad He even begged Zeus to trade his life for his brother's and vowed to avenge Katos. Zeus was very moved, so he let them look around in the sky and became a Gemini.

Later, when the Greek ship was sailing, it was caught in a storm. The stars appeared on the heads of the two brothers, and the storm stopped. So Gemini has also become the guardian star of navigation. You can see it at the zenith from dusk to night in winter.

Cancer constellation

Sensitive cancer is a symbol of motherhood, and the arms held on the chest show the mother's nature of protecting her children. However, in another symbolic sense, the baby in the arms represents the helpless and fragile self, and the surrounding arms illustrate the strong self-protection consciousness of Cancer.

A story in ancient Greek mythology emphasized the unique aggressiveness of Cancer.

This must start with Heracles-Heracles is the son of Zeus and mortals, and Hera tried to kill him again and again. He is the greatest hero in Greece and the strongest man in the world. Even the gods conquered the giants with his help. One day, he came to the Kingdom of Messini and was about to receive a hero's welcome. However, Hera instructed the king to give him a difficult problem, killing hydra who lived in the swamp. This is very difficult, because every time a head is cut off, countless heads will be born immediately.

Hercules figured out a way to burn snakeheads, so he easily solved eight snakeheads. Seeing only one left, Hera flew into a rage in the sky. "Did you fail again this time?" She is unwilling! So a huge crab was called from the sea to stop Hercules, and the cancer stretched out powerful pliers to hold Hercules' feet, but everyone knew that Hercules was the strongest person in the world! Although the crab never let go of its claws, the crab finally died under his brute force.

Hera failed again, but she felt sorry for the desperate sacrifice of cancer. In order to appreciate the loyalty of cancer, even if it didn't succeed, Hera put it in the sky and became a cancer.

Le Signe du Lion

Facing the challenger, the king's demeanor of going straight and fighting alone is a symbol of Leo. It is said that the origin of Leo is also the credit of Hercules.

The first task of Hercules' atonement was to subdue the man-eating lion in the Nimia Valley of Greece. This is an indestructible lion as strong as steel. It roars like a storm, eats livestock and villagers, and everyone is afraid. Someone has come to subdue before, but no survivors have been seen.

Hercules, who came to Nimian Valley, was also lost for many days before he found the trace of the lion. Hercules tried to shoot an arrow, but the lion's skin was too hard to work. The sword is bent when it is cut, so it is made of olive trees and hits the lion hard on the head. At this time, the lion who was not afraid of the bow and sword was also afraid of the angry Hercules, who strangled him and finally suffocated. So Zeus lifted the lion to the sky to show off Hercules' achievements.

Another legend:

Legend has it that the origin of Leo is related to Heraclos.

Heraclos was the illegitimate son of Zeus and mortals. He was born with unparalleled divine power, so Hera was jealous. When Heraclos was a baby, he put two giant snakes in the cradle, hoping to kill He Wuli. Unexpectedly, He Wuli killed them with a smile. He Wuli was regarded as "the greatest hero of mankind" since childhood.

Hera certainly won't give up killing Heraclos because of one failure. She deliberately drove Heraclos crazy and beat his wife. Heraclos was very sorry and sad after waking up, and decided to wash away his sins with asceticism. He came to Messini and asked the king to give him a task. Who knows that the king was ordered by Hera to give him twelve arduous tasks, one of which was to kill a man-eating lion.

This lion usually lives in the forest. He Wuli went into the forest to look for him, but the forest was silent. All the animals, birds, deer and squirrels were eaten by lions. Heraclos was tired and began to doze off. Just then, the giant lion came out of a double-hole cave, and Heraclos opened his eyes. Oh, my God! A man-eating lion is five times as big as an ordinary lion, and its body is covered with animal blood, which adds a bit of horror. Heraclos first shot him with an arrow and then hit him with a stick. It's no use. The lion was invulnerable, and finally Heraclos had to hand-to-hand combat with the lion. The process was very tragic, but in the end he strangled the lion with brute force.

Hera, in order to commemorate his courage in struggling with Hera Cross, threw the man-eating lion into the air and became a Leo.

In late April, we can see Leo in the southern sky. In the sky, you look east from Cancer, see lions, skip handmaids, that is, long snakes, then Hercules, and Hercules himself. It is very interesting to see his masterpieces in the sky.

Ancient Egypt also worshipped Leo, and some people said that the Sphinx used the body of a lion.

virgo

The Greek name of Notre Dame is Demeter. She is Zeus's sister, in charge of agriculture. She has a beautiful daughter named Persephone. Persephone is a brilliant goddess of spring. Wherever her light footsteps go, they will be full of beautiful flowers.

One day, Persephone was picking flowers in Sicily when she suddenly saw an unusually delicate flower in full bloom, so when her fingers touched the petals, the ground cracked, and a carriage pulled by two dark horses rushed out of the ground and took Persephone away. It turned out that just now, when Persephone was picking flowers, it happened to be seen by Hadders, the keeper of the underworld, so Hadders fell in love with Persephone at first sight and immediately took her back to the underworld.

Dmitry lost his daughter. He doesn't care about crops. The land is barren: seeds stop sprouting, fertile land can't produce clusters of wheat ears, and human beings are starving. So Zeus came forward and sent someone to negotiate. Hadders promised to let people go, but she designed Persephone to eat pomegranates in hell (if she ate from hell, she would have to stay in hell forever). As a result, Persephone only ate half of it, so she could only spend half a year with her mother. At this time, plants and grains grow in the world for spring and summer; When Persephone returned to the underworld, the earth was cold because of autumn and winter. Autumn and winter represent death, spring and summer represent rebirth, and spring, summer, autumn and winter symbolize the rise and fall cycle of everything.

According to Roman mythology, Virgo, also known as the star of righteousness, is the daughter of Zeus and Venus and the goddess of justice. At the end of the golden age, the world was in chaos and evil deeds were rampant. The gods hate this world and stay away from it. However, estelle is still running around with a glimmer of hope, but there is still no progress. I had to leave this world with regret and ascend to become a virgin constellation.

In the evening of May and June, in the southern sky, Virgo can be seen looking down on human beings affectionately.

libra

Libra is the Libra used by the goddess of justice, Yi Shen Xing, to judge good and evil for human beings. Yi Shenxing holds a balance in one hand and a sword in the other, so she is blindfolded to show justice, which has become a symbol of Libra.

In the past, God and human beings lived in peace on the earth. Although God has eternal life, human life is limited. Therefore, the lonely God has to constantly create human beings. At the end of the golden age, the world was in chaos and evil deeds were rampant, and human beings were heroic and ruthless. The gods returned to heaven after being disappointed with mankind. Only the goddess Astri is reluctant to go back and stay in the world, running around, teaching people to be good, and continuing to measure fairness for the world with Libra. In spite of this, human beings continue to fall, so wars break out frequently and they begin to fight and kill. Finally, Astria had to leave with regret, give up human beings and return to heaven. And the sky is high and Libra loves justice, peace and justice.

Another legend says that Libra is also called Libra, because in Greek mythology, a priestess held the balance of good and evil flying into the sky. Around 2000 BC, this constellation was related to the trial of Babylonian religion dominating life and death, and the scales were used to measure the good and evil of the soul.

Scorpius

In Greek mythology, Orion, the son of Poseidon and Oreglia, the queen of Amazon, is a famous warrior, not only a beautiful boy, but also a handsome man with strong physique. However, he is irritable, arrogant and often willful. He often boasted that he was the best in the world and that his martial arts were the best in the world, which eventually aroused the dissatisfaction of the gods. After that, Hera sent the proud general killer scorpion to assassinate Orion Olin. Scorpio crept up on unsuspecting O 'Ryan and stabbed him in the heel with a poisonous needle. Before O 'Ryan could react, he was dead. (Another similar story is that Olin angered Hera by pursuing the moon and the goddess of hunting, themis Di Anna, so Hera sent a scorpion to kill Olin. )

On another occasion, Scorpio attacked felton, who was driving the carriage of Sun God, with poison gas, giving Zeus a chance to release lightning to destroy the running solar car.

Because of this feat, there are scorpions in the sky. As long as Scorpio rises in the east, Orion will quickly hide and sink into the western horizon. These two constellations in winter and summer will never meet in the sky.

The antares of Scorpio is the standard of summer solstice two or three thousand years ago, also known as fire. In the Book of Songs, there is a saying that "fire flows in July and clothes are delivered in September", which means that the fire in July is near the horizon, and clothes should be prepared in autumn two months later.

Sagittarius

Archers are "horses" that can write and fight in Greek mythology, that is, Centauri, whose name is Kay Long Xing. It is also called "Sagittarius" because it has the shape of half man and half horse, and has the dual faces of animals and humans. Kay Long Xing was a famous prophet, doctor and scholar. He was the master of many famous Greek heroes: Jason, Achilles and Aeneas, Hercules, Chancellor of the Exchequer labis, lyre player orpheus, Caster and Pollux. When Kay Long Xing was created, he was endowed with immortal life. He was a respected saint in Ken Taulos. However, Kay Long Xing died under the poison arrow shot by Hercules carelessly. On that day, Hercules came to visit his friend in the residence of Ken Taulos, and asked his friend to open the wine collected by the whole people for him to drink. When Hercules was intoxicated with the fragrance and sweetness of wine, the aroma of wine had permeated the whole tribe, and all Ken Taulos people severely reprimanded Hercules. So Hercules was furious and went after Ken Taulos with his bow, while Ken Taulos fled to the home of Kay Long Xing, the most respected ethnic group. Kay Long Xing heard the cry for help of trampling and panic outside, opened the door and went straight out. Passing 18-wheeler, Hercules' full bow shot instantly, hitting Kay Long Xing! The immortal Kay Long Xing was in great pain because the arrow tail was poisoned by Xu Dela monster, and could not be freed from the pain. Later, Kay Long Xing asked the gods to free him from this endless pain, and was willing to exchange his life for the release of Prometheus (a Titan tied to a stone was greedily devoured by an eagle because he stole a flame from the gods and gave it to mankind). Finally, Zeus promised to release Prometheus and let Kay Long Xing die peacefully.

Later, Zeus moved Kay Long Xing to the sky, chased and shot Scorpio, a poison in the sky, and inclined his bow to the heart of Scorpio, becoming a Sagittarius.

Capricorn. Compare CAPRICORN

Capricorn is rigorous and introverted, as the name suggests. In Greek mythology, he was in charge of Zeus's cattle and sheep, and they all called him Pan.

Pan likes taking a nap very much and hates noisy sounds. Once frightened by something, he is often at a loss. It is said that the word "panic" comes from his name.

On one occasion, Pan and Nymph (the fairy) who went down the mountain met by chance. Celine Cox is an attendant of the hunting goddess Al themis. Celine Cox was beautiful, and Pan fell in love with her at first sight. But Celine Cox saw Pan's rudeness and ran away in fear. The fairy water lily in the forest runs faster than expected, and Pan, who runs with sheep's hoofs, can't catch up. The two men chased each other to the river, and Xilinx turned to his father Hershin for help because of despair. Pan thought he finally caught Celine's arm, but I grabbed a reed by the river and the fairy water lily disappeared. Pan was confused for a moment, came to his senses, cut off several reed stems, twisted them together and made a flute. Pan named this flute Xilinx and played it devoutly. Today, this kind of reed flute is also called "Pan Dizi", which is a flute made by cutting reed pipes into different lengths and arranging them in musical order. Some people say it is the prototype of an organ. Pan has been carrying this flute and playing beautiful music.

When the gods met on the Nile, Pan played the flute as usual. Unexpectedly, the hundred monsters Tifeng unexpectedly appeared. The gods were frightened by the monster's terrible roar and turned into animals running for their lives. In desperation, Pan panicked and couldn't completely turn into a fish, so he didn't incarnate and flew into the shallows of the Nile. The submerged part became a fish tail, and the exposed part remained the same. So Zeus turned the disc into a constellation according to its later appearance.

The origin of Capricorn can be traced back to earlier, that is, from the 7th century BC to the 6th century BC, when the sun was in Capricorn's winter solstice. In the northern hemisphere, the sun is at the lowest point in the south from the winter solstice, and gradually climbs to the north from winter to the future. Some people compare this sun to a goat climbing a rock.

Aquarius constellation

The Trojan Prince Ganyedes (or Ganymede) is a golden boy, whose handsome appearance is not even as good as that of China.

One day, the gods will hold a banquet. It turns out that the Aquarius waiter in the sky, Princess Shi Bi, who is in charge of pouring wine for Zeus, has married Hercules. Because Zeus liked Ganyedes' handsome appearance very much, when Ganyedes was herding sheep, Zeus [Juze] turned into an eagle, caught him on Mount Olympus, and asked him to take the place of Princess Hippy's original job and pour wine for Zeus. Since then, Ganymedes has become a royal shepherd, and Zeus has given him eternal youth, but he must be a sommelier for life. Carnemedes feels quite honored and has been working hard. Zeus was deeply moved and gave him a water bottle full of wisdom, which was later named Aquarius in the sky. From the sky, he looks like an Aquarius with a bottle, and the poured wine falls right in the mouth of Pisces.

In ancient Rome, the position of the sun in the first month of this constellation was rainy season, so it was named Aquarius, also known as Aquarius.

fishes

Venus (Greek name Aphrodite) and her son Cupid (Jupiter) were chased by the giant Di Feng. They both jumped into the Euphrates River and fled like fish. Mineave (another name for Athena) turned fish into stars, and God commemorated this event.

Another legend:

One day, the gods saw that the weather was fine and held a banquet by the river. Music-loving gods are happy to sing and play musical instruments, and the atmosphere is quite hot. Suddenly there was a scream. This is a monster with a hundred snakes under his shoulders and big wings. Tifeng led a group of monsters to besiege the temple. The gods saw something bad and fled everywhere. Zeus became a bird, Apollo became a crow, Hera became a cow, julius became a goat, and all the gods fled in the form of animals. Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, and her son, Giroz, the god of love, turned into fish and fled into the Euphrates River. In order not to be washed away, the two fish decided to tie their tails together with ribbons and never separate, thus successfully escaping from the monster. In this way, mother and son ascended to heaven with their tails connected and never separated. This is the origin of Pisces.

The star map is drawn as a fish with two tails jumping into the water. And become a Pisces that represents the body and the spirit.

The ruler of Pisces is Neptune, the Greek sea god ... paston, the brother of Zeus.
