One day, when he was herding sheep, he was suddenly caught by an eagle turned by Zeus and was responsible for pouring wine for Princess Sybil who married Hercules.

Taurus: the origin of myth

Legend has it that Zeus, the king of the gods who is famous for his romantic style, took a fancy to Europa (later became Europe). In order to avoid the eyes and ears of tianhouhai, he turned himself into a white cow and carried Europa to fulfill his wish. Afterwards, Zeus changed back to his original shape and put his head like a bull in the sky, becoming one of the constellations.

Cancer: the origin of myth

The legend that cancer was first born in Babylon. In Egypt, the symbol of this constellation is two turtles, sometimes called "water constellation"; Sometimes it is also called Allul (Alor, an unknown aquatic creature).

Sagittarius: the origin of myth

Sagittarius is half man and half horse, with animal faces and human faces. He is a famous prophet, doctor and scholar. He was a supporter of the famous Greek heroes Jason, Achilles and Aeneas. Legend has it that he is the son of Carolas and Philyra and the father of Zeus. After he was frightened, he turned himself into a horse. His mother Philae couldn't stand her son's strange appearance and turned into a bodhi tree.

Capricorn: the origin of myth

Paine, the son of Hermes, is one of the demigods. Although demigods are not as good as gods, they are still far superior to humans. Paine, the god of agriculture and animal husbandry, is ugly even to his own mother. He has goat's ears and horns on his head, a hairy figure on his upper body and a goat's posture on his lower body. He likes music best and often plays the flute himself.

Once, when the gods held a banquet by the Nile, a monster suddenly appeared. The gods were frightened to disgrace and fled into the river in various forms. Paine also jumped into the water to take refuge, but he was so frightened that he completely turned into a fish ... This is the origin of Capricorn.

There was a fairy named Ea in Babylon, which is said to be an antelope in the deep sea, which is quite consistent with the image of Capricorn's fishtail sheep.

Leo: The Origin of Myth

Pisces: the origin of myth

Venus and Cupid were once chased by the giant Tifeng, and they both jumped into the Euphrates River and turned into fish and ran away. Mineave (another name for Dina) turned fish into stars and put them in the sky to commemorate this event. Another way of saying this is that it is the ribbon that binds the mermaid fairy Amigny Tum and Sima together.

Gemini: the origin of myth

There are few legends related to Gemini in fairy tales. In Egypt, its name is Gemini, which is named after the two brightest stars in this constellation, Castor and Pollux. These two stars also have two groups of names, namely Hercules, Apollo, Tritto Lemus and Jasion. The Egyptian concept of Gemini is a young child, not a common adult image.

Libra: the origin of myth

In Greek mythology, Libra, in charge of good and evil, flew into the sky in the hands of a priestess. Around 2000 BC, this constellation was related to the trial of Babylonian religion dominating life and death, and Libra was used to measure the good and evil of the soul.

Scorpio: the origin of myth

Zhu Na ordered Scorpio to climb out of the dark underground and attack Orion (the hunter Diana fell in love with and later became Orion). On another occasion, Scorpio attacked felton, who was driving the carriage of the Sun God, with poison gas, giving Cupid a chance to shoot lightning and destroy the running solar car.
