Cygnus has its name from
the Greek word for Swan, and is a known as the Northern Cross
The shape of the
constellation with a short tail and long neck stretching out suggests a flying
Swan.
A well-known myth is the
story of Zeus who disguised himself as a swan to seduce Leda, the mother of Castor,
Pollox and Helen of Troy.
Another story declares that
Cygnus the Swan is Orpheus himself giving his allure of forbidden love and the
Swan story, which is the similar myth of Vega, known as the Harp star or
Lyre. The Aquarian qualities that are
able to soar to great heights, as long they behave appropriately, or it becomes
another Swan song.
Shravana is a lunar mansion
consisting of the three stars in the head of the eagle Aquilla, seen as well as
the footprint of Vishnu the preserver of the universe. He bestows the gift to
perceive the truth of manifestation that is concealed in the world of Maya or illusion.
It is considered as the
asterism of learning and associated to Saraswati the goddess of learning
bestowing talents in music, learning and eloquence to humanity.
Another story goes, Cygnus
who was a friend to Phaeton the son of Apollo who attempted to take Apollo’s
chariot for a ride across the night-sky and lost control of the horses and
landed in a river.
It impressed Zeus that he
turned the youth into a swan and placed his image into the night sky.
The flight of the Swan or
the thin line of can do or not is called “attitude” and it consists of doubt,
self-doubt, self-esteem, courage, curiosity, ambition, perseverance and
confidence.
For some trying to proof something
is unknowingly planning to fail. Winning presents a daunting challenge, because
the battle is in the head and it doesn’t always go to the stronger or faster
person, the one who wins is the one who knows.
The living stars and their
living light still traveling towards us and still open the questions, where is one
in the relation to the cosmic interpretations that seem to have its own evident
concept of order and a greater presence.
Trust is of no good value
to others and oneself, having no trust in the self.
