What is the constellation of August 10?

The constellation of August 10 in Gregorian calendar is Leo. Leo was born from July 23rd to August 22nd.

Xuanyuan XIV, the brightest star in Leo, is a blue and white star with an apparent magnitude of 1.35, ranking 2nd1in the whole night sky, symbolizing the heart of the lion. Because Xuanyuan Fourteen is on the edge of the ecliptic, there are occasional celestial phenomena in which the moon covers Xuanyuan Fourteen.

In addition, it is about 90 degrees away from four bright stars, which are also near the ecliptic. Antares in Scorpio and Nobuhiro Shimonoseki in Aquarius are just one in each season.

They are also known as the "four heavenly kings" of the zodiac. Ancient navigators often used it to determine the position of ships in the sea, so Xuanyuan XIV was awarded the title of "one of the nine navigation planets".

Leo β is a white star with a magnitude of 2. 1, which is also a variable star. It forms an equilateral triangle with the angles of the patriarch arcturus and Virgo, which is called the "Spring Triangle". These three stars and the Caroli heart of Canis constitute the Da Chun diamond.

Leo has been established for thousands of years. It is generally believed that in ancient Egypt more than 4,000 years ago, when the sun moved to the sky area of Leo in midsummer every year, a large number of lions gathered in the Nile Valley to enjoy the cool, hence the name Leo.

Similarly, ancient Egypt worshipped Leo very much. The legendary famous Sphinx is shaped according to the lion's body and the girl's head. The star of Leo was also highly valued in ancient China, and was called the God of the Yellow Emperor and Xuanyuan.
