Ophiucus 2


As you will see on the following page a connection between the above with Greek Mythology and recent proposals by modern astrologers, gnosticism, and hermetic sciences.

The modern fortunetellers, or horoscope readers who have been using their charting techniques on a Zodiac, which was based on Babylonian references that are no longer valid in physical terms, have recently proposed that a new Zodiac Sign be entered into the sequence with the other twelve to account for the variation from the precession of the equinoxes.
At last notice, this thirteenth Sign would be called "Ophiuchus," the Serpent Bearer. This makes me wonder whether anyone who has ever had their chart read can sue for false advertisement of results.


Or better yet get a refund on forecast that did not come to pass.
Greek Mythology in regard to the constellations of the Zodiac on the Arabic Ophiuchus and the Greek Aesculapius and the connection to Pharaoh Akhenaton or Amenhetep IV.


Ara is a constellation below Sagittarius and Scorpius referred to as the altar of the centaur Chiron, but was sometimes called the Altar of Dionysus. Dionysus in Greco-Roman Mythology is the god of wine and of an orgiastic religion celebrating the power and fertility of nature. Also called Bacchus [Latin Dionosus, from Greek Dionusos].

Half man and half horse, Chiron was believed to be the wisest creature on Earth. It is he who first brought order to the sky by showing mortals how to draw lines between the stars to form constellations. According to early Greek myths, it was Chiron who first fashioned the constellations and showed mankind how to read the sky. Below Virgo the constellation Centaurus to the Greeks is said to be Chiron, smartest and wisest of his race, wiser even than the gods. He was skilled in the arts, hunting, and medicine and was the tutor of such illustrious humans as Jason, Achilles Heracles, and Asclepius. He placed a picture of himself in the sky to guide the Argonauts on their quest for the Golden Fleece.


Below Leo another myth associated with the constellation Corvus, shows Apollo had an affair with Coronis, the daughter of a king. They had a son, Asclepius, the founder of medical science, who was immortalized in the sky as the constellation Ophiuchus. Apollo became suspicious that Coronis was unfaithful to him and sent his spy, Corvus, then of silver plumage, to observe. Indeed Corvus reported back that Coronis was having an affair with a certain Ischys of Arcadia. In a rage, Apollo slew Coronis with an arrow and consigned Corvus to Hades and turned his feathers black, which they have remained to this day.Above the constellation Scorpius, we have Ophiuchus who is identified as Asclepius, a legendary physician known as the god of medicine. It is said that Hippocrates, the famous Greek physician and the father of medicine, was his 15th grandson.
