Water bottle-water bottle

1/20~2/ 18

In Greek mythology, it is said that at the Olympic banquet at that time, a goddess of Hebei poured wine for the gods. Because she was negligent in serving the gods, she was relieved of her job by the gods and then handed over to Hercules.

Although she was driven away, someone still needed to pour the wine, so Zeus took a fancy to the son of sloss, king of Troy, who was rated as the most beautiful boy in the world by the gods.

Zeus asked Ganymedes to pour wine for the gods at the banquet and stayed with him to serve him. But Ganymedes didn't want to, so Zeus turned into an eagle and robbed him, but the stubborn beautiful boy finally managed to escape. Zeus was so angry that he put him in the sky and became Aquarius.

Aquarius ranks 1 1 among the twelve constellations, and Uranus is the ruler. The patron saint is the great god Rachnas in Greek mythology. He is proficient in astronomy, rich in knowledge and has the ability to predict the future. People born in this constellation are quick-thinking and smart.

Heather, the daughter of Shearer, the father of the gods, was a waiter and cupbearer at the banquet of the gods on Mount Olympus. Since she married another theologian, the position of serving wine has been vacant. Later, Zeus finally took a fancy to a handsome young Trojan prince-Ganymede. The gods also agreed that he should be a sommelier, so Zeus sent messengers to invite him. However, Ganymede loves freedom and is bohemian. He never agrees to Zeus' invitation. Zeus was very angry when he found out. He not only took Ganymede back, but also forced him to be a waiter forever, and the water in the Aquarius became the source of wisdom for the gods. This is the origin of Aquarius.

In Greek mythology, it is said that Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, and her beloved son eros were walking along the Euphrates River one day when they were suddenly attacked by Tifeng, a monster who disturbed the banquet of the gods, and panicked. The two men ran away like fish, but Aphrodite tied a ribbon on her tail for fear of losing each other.

Later, this shape was seen by the gods, and it became a western fish and a northern fish in the sky, and became a Pisces.

Pisces is the twelfth of the twelve constellations, and Neptune is the main star. Neptune is the sea god in Roman mythology and the great god in charge of oceans, rivers, springs and earthquakes in Greek mythology. People born in this constellation are gentle, imaginative and tolerant.

One day, because of the fine weather, the gods held a banquet by the river. Music-loving gods happily sang and played musical instruments, and the atmosphere was quite warm. Suddenly there was a shrill cry. This is Fan Jie, a monster with big wings and a hundred snakes under his shoulders. The gods saw something bad and fled everywhere. Zeus became a bird, Apollo became a crow, Hera became a bull, and julius became a goat. All the gods turned into animals and ran away. African jute, the goddess of love and beauty, and Jeros, the god of love, took her son into a fish and fled into the Euphrates River. At that time, they decided to tie their tails together with ribbons and never separate, thus successfully escaping from the monster. In this way, mother and son are connected by their tails and will never be separated. This is the origin of Pisces.

Aries Aries

3/2 1~4/ 19

In Greek mythology, it is said that there is a kingdom called Desalia. King Amasta and Queen Felipe gave birth to a pair of children. My brother's name is Felix and my sister's name is Allen. Originally, the family lived a happy life. Later, the king married a princess named Ina. The princess doesn't like their brother and sister and always wants to get rid of them.

One year there was a drought, and the cruel princess finally seized the opportunity. She incited the king to say that if the two brothers and sisters were sacrificed to Zeus, the drought could be lifted. So the king decided to dedicate the two brothers and sisters to Zeus, the great god, in exchange for his pity.

When this vicious plot was known by the mothers of the two brothers and sisters, Fei Li was so anxious that she was at a loss. Later, she quickly borrowed an Aries with golden hair and wings from Hao Man, one of the Olympic gods, to help the two brothers and sisters out of danger. However, when Aries ran fast with their two brothers and sisters on her back, her sister Allen accidentally fell into the sea because of dizziness. Although Aries runs fast with her brother on her back, she still turns around from time to time to mourn her.

Later, he arrived safely in Felix in the Andes, married the daughter of the local king, and then dedicated the Aries that saved him to Zeus.

Zeus was so moved that he put this Aries in the sky and became an Aries.

Aries ranks first among the twelve constellations, the guardian star is Mars, and the patron saint is Ares in Greek mythology and Mars in Roman mythology. People born in this constellation have strong fighting ability. In order to become heroes, they are not afraid of difficulties and make unremitting efforts.

King Atamas of Filja married Princess Nipera, and they gave birth to twins. However, the king had an affair with Princess Ginova of Tebe, drove Princess Niepera out of the palace and made Nova his new wife. When Princess Khynova had a child of her own, she decided to kill the only twin left by her predecessor, Princess Niepera (the elder brother is Prica and the younger sister is Hurley). She bribed the fortune teller to complain to the king: If the children born to the former princess are not sacrificed to Zeus, the gods will be furious and there will be famine this year. When Nipola knew about it, he asked Zeus for help, so Zeus sent the golden ram in the sky to the other side of the sky with his two brothers and sisters. Because the speed was too fast, my sister fell into the sea, and the ram looked back at my sister and guarded my brother, thus forming today's Aries.

One day, when Europa and the maid-in-waiting were playing at the seaside, Zeus turned into a white cow while Hera was not looking, and appeared at the seaside where Europa was playing. Europa didn't know she was curious, so she rode on the white cow. As a result, the bull drove her straight to the sea. Later, the bull took her to Crete.

At first, the princess was really surprised, but she went to the tame cow and touched 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 clung to the cow 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. When she arrived in Crete, she married Zeus, and Zeus, who became a cow, and Princess Shilobe lived a happy life.

Soon after, she gave birth to two pairs of twins, named Boris Keith and Helen with Zeus and castel and coretta with Sparta. One day, Boris Keith and castel had a fierce battle with two other men. Later, castel was unfortunately knocked down and seriously injured, and kept moaning in pain. At this time, Boris Keith was very anxious and was at a loss to call for help from the gods in the sky. If no one saves his brother, he will die with his brother.

Zeus in the sky heard his request and suddenly appeared. He said to Boris, "You are my son, the God of mankind. As long as you promise to come back to the Olympics with me, I will agree to your terms. But if you want to live with your brother, then I must leave you in the sky half the time and the other half on the ground. Choose your own path! "

As a result, Boris Keyes chose the latter without hesitation, that is, he and his brother castel were in the sky for a while and on the ground for a while. Later, in order to commemorate this event, Zeus put their brother in the sky and became a Gemini.

When he grew up, Hercules once met Hydra, one of the twelve challenges, and launched a big war. At this time, Hera used magic to create a huge crab to help Hydra fight.

Leo Leo

7/23~8/22

In Greek mythology, it is said that Hercules, the first hero of Greece at that time, was cursed by Hera, the wife of Zeus, at birth: after his birth, he was destined to bear heavy sins and bear twelve challenges. However, Hercules was fearless and passed the test one by one.

When he grew up, Hercules' first challenge was to kill the Nimia lion and peel off its fur. But this lion is very fierce, with great strength and invulnerability. Hercules shot an arrow with divine power, but it was bounced off by its thick skin; Cut with a sword and the sword will bend. Later, he picked up a big stick and hit the lion's nose, making the lion's ears hum. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hercules put the lion's head under his arm, squeezed hard and hit hard, and finally killed the lion.

After knowing his son's heroic deeds, Zeus happily lifted the dead lion to the sky and became a Leo.

Leo ranks fifth among the twelve constellations, and the ruler is the sun. The patron saint is the predecessor of Apollo, the sun god in fairy tales. Under the protection of Apollo, the symbol of the sun and heat, people born in this constellation are lively and free, with extraordinary courage and strong self-esteem.

Hercules, the son of Zeus and Akmini, was appointed king of Yeristos. He must complete twelve arduous tasks. The first task is to subdue the immortal cannibal lion in Nemesis Valley. The lion only eats livestock and villagers, and everyone is afraid. He was subdued before, but no survivors were seen. Hercules came to Neme Valley and lost his way 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 also bent, so he made a thick stick from an olive tree and hit the lion hard on the head. At this time, the lion who was not afraid of bows and swords was also afraid of the angry Hercules. Hercules strangled him and was finally repelled by him. To commemorate this lion, the goddess Hera set up a lion constellation in the sky.

One day, Pershill was forcibly taken away by the keeper while playing with a group of girls in Sicily.

Since the loss of his beloved daughter, Demeter, who is sad, has no intention of patrolling the countryside, but is eager to find her whereabouts everywhere. At this time, the world has lost its vitality and the earth is slowly barren. When Zeus, the sun god, knew about it, he sent messengers of the gods to Hades to release percy and let her return to Demeter. But Hades refused to agree easily, but did not dare to go against Zeus' wishes, so he tricked Percierre into going to Hades to eat pomegranate.

I wonder if there is cheating in it. Pearl Hill ate this pomegranate because she was anxious to get back to her mother. As a result, Perl cierre spends six months in hell and six months on earth every year. During her six months in the underworld, Demeter missed her daughter so much that she couldn't concentrate on her work, so there were four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Virgo is the sixth of the twelve constellations, the guardian star is Mercury, the patron saint is Mercury in Roman mythology, and the angel Hermes in Greek mythology. He is the god of wisdom and the messenger of the gods. People born in this constellation are sensitive and intuitive, good at speculating about future changes and grasping opportunities.

One day, when Persephone was picking flowers in the wild, a beautiful flower that she had never seen before was in full bloom. Just as she reached for it, the ground suddenly broke into several pieces and fell down. Mother had to swear by Myrtle to look for her missing daughter, looking everywhere. Helius, the sun god who witnessed everything, told Demeter that Hades wanted to marry Persephone and brought her back to the ground. Demeter withered with grief and the earth became barren. Zeus saw that the situation was serious, but he pleaded with Hades. However, when Persephone was leaving, Haides gave her a pomegranate to eat. Persephone was happy to eat four, because she could leave. As a result, she was forced to stay in the underworld for a year and four months. These four months have become the winter when everything is not suitable for farming today. As soon as Persephone returned to earth, it was spring, and Demeter was the embodiment of Virgo.

Libra Libra

9/23~ 10/22

In Greek mythology, it is said that Estella, the goddess of justice in the sky, was ordered by Zeus to preside over human trials. After Estella came to the earth, she used the power of justice to deal with human intrigue and cannibalism, which brought a beautiful awakening to the world.

However, when Estella observed every move of human beings while upholding justice on the earth, she found that human beings did not turn to goodness because of the existence of justice, but intensified and did not repent. Seeing this situation, she decided to give mankind a punishment.

Later, Estella returned to the sky and put Libra in the sky to become a constellation, so that human beings could see Libra at night after fierce fighting during the day, and they were wary and repented. This is the origin of Libra.

Libra ranks seventh in the twelve constellations, Venus is the guardian star, Aphrodite in Greek mythology and Venus in Roman mythology are the patron saints, in charge of beauty and love, marriage and grain harvest. People born in this constellation have a high sense of beauty and attach importance to harmony and balance.

This is the balance used by the goddess of justice, Storez, in judging good and evil for mankind. Astoria had a balance in one hand and a sword to cut the magic in the other. To be fair, I was blindfolded. In the past, God and human beings lived peacefully on the earth. Although God has eternal life, human life is limited. Therefore, the lonely God has to constantly create human beings. But at that time, there were many people fighting and evil deeds were rampant, and the gods returned to heaven after being disappointed with mankind. Only the goddess Storez is reluctant to go back and stay on earth and teach people to be good. Nevertheless, mankind continued to fall, so the war began, and fighting and killing began. Finally, even Storez gave up human beings and returned to heaven. Libra, who loves justice, peace and justice, is on high.

Scorpio people

10/23~ 1 1/2 1

In Greek mythology, it is said that Poseidon's son Orion was a handsome giant and an agile hunter. But Orion's tone is too arrogant and he often curses. He said: "In this world, no prey can escape my pursuit."

What he said was heard by Hera, the queen of heaven, so she sent a big scorpion lurking on his road and attacking him. Olian, who was ambushed, was unfortunately attacked by a big scorpion. Later, the poison fell and the scorpion was crushed to death.

After Hera won, she put this meritorious scorpion in the sky and became a Scorpio.

The ruler of Scorpio is Pluto, the patron saint is Hades in Greek mythology, and Pluto, the king of Hades in Roman mythology, is in charge of life and death, soul and other things. People born in this constellation have great vitality and endless energy.

In ancient Greece, Poseidon's son Orion was a famous warrior, not only a beautiful boy, but also a strong man, so he was quite popular with women. He is also quite proud. He once boasted that there is no better person in the world than me! The goddess Hera was very unhappy when she heard this, so she sent a poisonous Scorpio to catch Orion and exile him to his original place. Scorpio crept up on the unsuspecting Orion and stabbed him in the heel with a poisonous needle. Orion died before he could respond. Because of this feat, there are scorpions in the sky. Even now, as long as Scorpio rises in the east, Orion dares to hide in the western horizon and sink.

Sagittarius

1 1/22~ 12/2 1

In Greek mythology, it is said that kronos, the father of Zeus, gave birth to a child named Khyron. He was a centaur, and he learned a lot of skills and knowledge from Apollo and themis. Therefore, Khyron is quite clever, his nature is quite kind and full of wisdom, and he is not as cruel as other gods.

It turned out that Khyron was immortal, but he died in the end. This is because Hercules was fighting other gods at that time. Because Khyron was peaceful, he withdrew from the fighting. As a result, he accidentally shot his opponent's poison arrow in the chaos, and the injury was terrible.

Khyron passed on his immortal body to Prometheus in order not to live in a painful struggle, and then he died. On the same day, Zeus was very sad when he learned about it, so he lifted Khyron's body to the sky and became Sagittarius.

Sagittarius ranks ninth among the twelve constellations, Jupiter is the guardian star, and Zeus in Greek mythology and Jupiter in Roman mythology are the guardians. He is an omniscient, omnipotent and unrestrained god and the king of the gods. People born in this constellation are full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge about everything.

Once upon a time, there was a race of half-man, half-horse, a savage race whose upper body was a man and lower body was a horse. However, among a group of cruel people, only the son of Cronus, the God of Harvest, is a wise centaur. He not only knows music and divination, but also is a teacher of Hercules. One day, when Hercules clashed with his people, he was chased and fled to Ken's farmhouse. Angry Hercules aimed at the centaur and shot arrows frequently, but he didn't know that his teacher Kennon was among them and shot him in the foot. Because the end of the arrow is covered with immortality, it can't be freed from pain. Prometheus, the giant god, abolished his immortality and let him die peacefully, becoming Sagittarius in the sky.

In Greek mythology, it is said that Pan, the goddess in the sky, is the son of the angel Hermes. This strange-looking fauvism Pan has goat's horns, sheep's hoofs and goatee. He once attended a banquet of the gods by the Nile River, and all the gods present performed unique stunts to entertain the wine.

When it was his turn to play the mud flute, the wonderful sound of the mud flute spread all over the earth, just to attract monsters to hold up the wind. When the gods saw the monster, they turned around and fled in the chaos, while Pan tried to escape like a fish. As a result, because he was so nervous, he jumped into the water in a hurry and his lower body became a fish tail, while his upper body was still like the original goat.

Zeus, the god of heaven, saw his appearance and found it very interesting. He turned it into a star in the sky and Capricorn.

Capricorn ranks tenth among the twelve constellations, Saturn is the guardian star, and the patron saint is the god of agriculture in Roman mythology, that is, the god of time in Greek mythology, who is in charge of the earth and time.

Paine is often invited to parties because he can play wonderful music and bring joy to the gods. Once, when he was invited to attend and work for the gods, the monster Tifeng suddenly appeared and fell into chaos. When Tifeng rushed into the party, all the gods fled. Paine also turned into a fish and jumped into the Nile in a hurry. Because of nervousness, only the lower body became a fishtail, while the upper body was like a goat. This is a goat, half a fish and half a sheep.
