Aries myth
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 welcomed Nova as the new princess. 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, she asked Zeus for help, so Zeus sent the golden Aries in the sky to take her two brothers and sisters to heaven. On the other hand, because of the speed, my sister fell into the sea, and Aries looked back at her sister and guarded her brother, thus forming today's Aries.
Taurus myth
One day, Zeus, the god of heaven, wandered in a certain country and suddenly saw that the princess in this country was very beautiful, which made Zeus unconsciously take a fancy to the god. After returning to heaven, he still remembers this beautiful princess.
In the country where the princess belongs, there is a large beautiful pasture where countless cows graze and play. The princess often comes to this pasture to play with these lovely cows.
On a sunny morning, the princess appeared on the pasture as usual. While she was having fun with the cows, she suddenly found a singing cow among the cows. Its singing is very pleasant, like nature, attracting the princess to come to him unconsciously.
The princess fell in love with the cow as soon as she saw it. Because he not only sings perfectly, but also looks equally good. Just as the princess slowly leaned against the cow and sang with him, the cow suddenly picked up the princess and flew into the sky.
After a long flight, the cow finally stopped in a beautiful land, and then became a person to express his love to the princess. It turns out that this cow is the incarnation of Zeus. Because she couldn't help thinking about the princess day and night, she decided to confess to her.
The beautiful princess accepted Zeus' love and they returned to heaven to live together. Zeus named this land after the princess Europa to commemorate the land of confession. That land is today's European continent. The mythical story of Taurus is the love story depicted by the first of the twelve constellations, which breaks the false impression that Taurus lacks romance.
Gemini myth
Princess Rita gave birth to many lovely children, including two brothers. They are not only very close, but also almost identical in appearance, which makes people think they are twins.
In fact, among the two brothers, the elder brother is the son of Princess Rita and Zeus, and the younger brother is the son of King basta. They are half-brothers. The elder brother is a "god" and has eternal life. The younger brother is an ordinary person.
One day, Greece was attacked by a huge wild boar, and the princes called many warriors to chase the wild boar. When the wild boar was successfully solved, the warriors forged hatred because of their struggle for merit.
In a busy market, warriors who look at each other unpleasantly meet unexpectedly, and of course there is a quarrel. In the quarrel, someone started fighting, so the scene got out of control, and many people were injured or even killed in this fight. Unfortunately, the younger brothers of the two princes also died in this chaos.
My brother, who has been very good with this brother, can't accept the news of his death. He kept crying with his body in his arms, hoping that his brother would come back to life and let them enjoy the happy days of brotherhood together.
So, my brother returned to heaven and asked his father Zeus to save his brother. But Zeus told him that his brother was just an ordinary man and had already died. If he really wants to revive his brother, he must give him the rest of his life.
My affectionate brother, of course, agreed immediately without hesitation. From then on, the two brothers can live happily together again.
Cancer myth
The sensitive and affectionate cancer is a symbol of motherhood, with her arms around her chest, showing the mother's nature of protecting her children.
However, in another symbolic sense, the baby in the arms represents the helpless and fragile self, and the surrounding arms illustrate the strong self-protection significance of Cancer.
A story in Greek mythology emphasizes the unique aggressiveness of Cancer.
This has to start with Hercules. Speaking of Hercules as the son of Zeus and mortals, Hera tried to kill him again and again: he was also the greatest hero in Greece and the strongest man in the world. There is nothing he can't do. Even the gods conquered the giant Terran with his help. Of course, He Wuli also made great contributions. One day, he came to Mycenae and was about to be welcomed like a hero, but the king was ordered by Hera to give him a difficult problem, how to kill hydra living in the swamp. This is very difficult, because every time he cuts off a head, countless heads will be born immediately.
Hercules figured out a way to burn snakeheads, so he easily solved eight snakeheads. Seeing only one left, Sheila flew into a rage in the sky. "Did you fail again this time?" She is unwilling! So a huge crab was called from the sea to hinder He Wuli. The crab stretched out a pair of powerful crabs to hold He Wuli's feet, but everyone knew that He Wuli was the strongest person in the world! The cancer finally died under his brute force.
Sheila failed again, but she felt sorry for the desperate sacrifice of cancer. In order to appreciate the loyal mission of Cancer, even if it didn't succeed, Sheila put it in the sky and became a Cancer.
Leo myth
In the face of the challenger, the king's demeanor is straightforward and single-handedly, which is a symbol of Leo. It is said that the origin of Leo is related to Hercules.
Heracles is the illegitimate child of Zeus and mortals. He was born with unparalleled power, and Sheila was jealous. When Hercules was a baby, he put two giant snakes in the cradle, hoping to kill Hercules. I didn't expect Hercules to hold them with a smile and be regarded as "the greatest hero of mankind" since childhood.
Sheila certainly won't give up killing Heracles because of one failure. She deliberately drove Heracles crazy and beat his wife. Heracles was very sad and sad when she woke up. He decided to wash away his sins by abstinence. He came to Messina and asked the king to send him a task. Who knows that the king got instructions from Sheila, so he gave him twelve arduous tasks, which must be completed within twelve days, one of which was to kill a man-eating lion.
This lion usually lives in the forest. He Wuli went into the forest to look for him, but the forest was silent. All the animals, birds, deer and squirrels were eaten by lions. When Hercules was tired, he began to doze off. Just then, the giant lion came out of a double-hole cave. Hercules opened his eyes and looked, Oh, my God! A man-eating lion is five times as big as an ordinary lion, and its body is covered with animal blood, which adds a bit of horror. Hercules shot him with an arrow first, and then hit him with a stick. It's no use. This giant lion is invulnerable. Finally, Hercules had to fight hand-to-hand with the lion. The process was very tragic, but in the end he strangled the lion with brute force.
Although the man-eating lion died, Sheila threw the man-eating lion into the air to commemorate his courage in fighting with He Wuli and became a Leo.
Virgo myth
Demeter, the god of agriculture in charge of the grain of the earth and the mother of the Greek earth, has a beautiful only daughter, Posephna, who is the glorious goddess of spring. As long as she steps on it gently, it will be full of beautiful flowers. One day, she and her companions were picking flowers on the grass in the valley. Suddenly, she saw a silver daffodil with its fragrance in the air. Posephine thought, "It is more beautiful than all my flowers!" " "The beauty was radiant, so she secretly left her companion and reached for the flowers. Suddenly, a hole was opened in the ground, and a carriage was pulled out of the ground by two dark horses. It turned out to be Wang Haidi of the underworld. He loves Posephone, the most beautiful spring god, and sets a trick to take her away.
Poseidon's cry for help echoed between the valley and the sea, and of course, it reached his mother Demeter's ear. She was very sad! She left the grain to be harvested and flew over Qian Shan to find her daughter.
Without Mother Earth, seeds will no longer germinate, fertile land will not produce a pile of wheat ears, and human beings will starve to death. Zeus saw this situation and had to order Pluto to release Posephone. Bruto had to obey Zeus, but secretly gave Posephone a fruit before leaving. How did Posephina know that once she ate the fruit, she would not be able to live on the earth and was doomed to return to the dark and stinking hell?
Zeus had no choice but to say, "You only spend a quarter of the year with Posephina". From then on, as long as the earth is covered with frost and nothing grows, people will know that it is because Insephine has gone to hell again. Virgo symbolizes the beauty and purity of Posephine, the god of spring, and the wheat raised by her mother has become something she holds in her hand. Even so, she is no longer the carefree girl playing on the grass. Although she will come back to life every spring, she is still glamorous and moving, but the stench and terrible smell of hell will always follow her.
Libra myth
In ancient times, both human beings and gods lived on the ground and lived a peaceful and happy life together. However, human beings are getting smarter and smarter. They not only learned to build houses and pave roads, but also learned bad habits such as intrigue and bullying, which made many immortals unbearable and made human beings live only in heaven.
But among the gods, there is a goddess who represents justice. She is not discouraged by human nature, and still lives with human beings. However, mankind is getting worse and worse, with wars and killing each other. In the end, even the goddess of justice couldn't stand it anymore and resolutely moved back to heaven to live, but this doesn't mean that she has completely despaired of mankind. She still believes that human beings will realize one day and return to the kind and pure nature of the past.
The goddess of justice who returned to heaven met Poseidon by chance one day. Poseidon laughed at her foolish trust in human beings, and they immediately had a heated argument. During the debate, the goddess of justice thought that Poseidon had insulted her and had to apologize to him. Poseidon doesn't think so. It is said that the two men were deadlocked and sued Zeus.
This situation made Zeus feel very embarrassed, because the goddess was his daughter and Poseidon was his brother, so neither side could take sides. Just when Zeus was very worried about this, the queen made a suggestion in time, asking Poseidon to compete with the goddess of justice, and whoever lost would apologize to the other side.
The venue of the competition is located in Paradise Square, starting from Poseidon. Poseidon waved his stick at the wall, and beautiful water immediately flowed out of the crack. Then the goddess of justice turned into a tree with a reddish-brown trunk, green leaves and golden olives. Most importantly, anyone who looks at this tree will feel love and peace. At the end of the game, Poseidon persuaded himself to give up.
In order to commemorate this result, Zeus threw the balance he carried with him into the sky and became the present Libra.
Scorpio myth
The son of Apollo, the sun god, was born beautiful and sexy, so he felt conceited. His attitude is always arrogant and rude, and his strong personality often makes him inadvertently offend many people. One day, a man told Bayton, "You are not the son of the sun god!" " "After laughing, he walked away. How can the strong Baiteng swallow this tone? So he asked his mother, "am I the son of Apollo?" However, no matter how repeatedly his mother assured him that he was indeed born by Apollo, Bayton still didn't believe his mother, so he said, "The man who made fun of you is Zeus' son. If you still don't believe it, ask Apollo himself! "
Apollo listened to his son's question and said with a smile, "Don't listen to their nonsense, of course you are my son!" " "
Bayton still insists on not believing. In fact, of course he knows that the sun god never lies, but he has another purpose, driving his father's solar car and proving that he is the son of Apollo. "How can this work?" Apollo was frightened. The sun is the master of all things. If you are not careful, it will cause great disaster, but you can't beat Byeton. While Apollo was explaining how to drive a solar-powered car on a certain track, Bayton jumped on the car and galloped away at will.
Of course, the result was tragic. People, animals and plants on the ground are either dying of heat or freezing to death, which also delays the time and makes it dark and full of complaints. In order to stop Bayeton, the gods released a scorpion from Sheila and bit Bayeton's ankle. Zeus hit Bayeton with terrible lightning, only to see him fall to the ground with a scream and die.
Peace has been restored to the world. In memory of scorpions killed by lightning, this constellation was named "Scorpio".
Sagittarius myth
On the remote ancient Greek prairie, there was a group of people who were half-man, half-beast and fierce by nature. "Half man and half beast" represents the contradiction between rationality and irrationality, human nature and animal nature, and is Sagittarius.
The only exception in Sagittarius-Chilon. Although Chilon is also a member of Sagittarius, he is kind in nature and is famous for his frankness in treating his friends, so Chilon is highly respected in the tribe. One day, Hercules, the greatest hero of Greece, came to visit his friend, the super Hercules who strangled the giant snake in his childhood. When he heard that Sagittarius is also a nation good at making wine, he thought of alcohol and forced his friends to steal it for him to enjoy, regardless of whether it is Sagittarius' common property or not. Everyone knows that Qiu Li is the strongest man in the world, and even Apollo, the sun god, wants him to score three points. In desperation, this Sagittarius has to keep his word.
When He Qiuli was intoxicated with the fragrance and sweetness of wine, the aroma of wine had permeated the whole tribe. Sagittarius sternly rebuked He Qiuli, who was furious and pursued Sagittarius with a bow. Sagittarius fled to the hometown of Chilon, the most respected nation. At this moment, Chilon heard the cry for help outside, and he didn't even think about it. He opened the door and went straight out. Just then, Hehuang was full.
Zeus, the god of gods, heard the screams of Sagittarius, so he lifted Chilon's body with both hands and threw it into the sky. Chilon instantly turned into several shining stars, just like Sagittarius. Since then, in memory of Chilon, this constellation is called Sagittarius, which is what we call Sagittarius.
Capricorn myth
Capricorn is rigorous and introverted, as the name suggests. In Greek mythology, he was in charge of Zeus's cattle and sheep, and they all called him Paine.
Paine is so ugly that he can almost be described as ferocious. There are two horns on the head, but the part of the lower body that should be the foot is the sheep's hoof. Such an ugly appearance makes Paine, the god of agriculture and animal husbandry, very embarrassed and inferior. He can't sing with God or have sex with charming fairies. Ah! Who can understand that there is a warm heart under the ugly appearance? Day and night, he can only express his grief by blowing Xiao.
One day, the gods got together to drink and laugh loudly. Zeus, the god, knew that Paine had played a good shaw, so he asked him to play the god.
While the beautiful Xiao Sheng is flowing in the forest and Yuan Ye, and the ghosts and gods are singing in ecstasy, on the other side of the forest, a multi-headed animal with 100 eyes is screaming. The fairies turned pale and threw down their harps, turning them into butterflies. The gods don't care about the wine in their hands, some turn into flapping birds, some jump into the river and go downstream, and some simply turn into light smoke and disappear without a trace.
Pansi, the god of agriculture and animal husbandry, watched the gods escape and slip away, but still thought, "What should I do to escape?" Hesitate. Finally, he decided to become a goat and jump into a stream. But the stream he chose was too shallow to fully accommodate his huge body, so the lower body became a fishtail, while the upper body was still a goat's head.
The fish tail in the lower part symbolizes Capricorn's shyness.
Aquarius myth
In Troy, there lived a handsome prince. His handsome appearance is not comparable to all the beautiful women in Liancheng.
One day, the gods will hold a banquet, but a girl who pours wine for Zeus is injured, so no one can do the work instead of her. So Zeus was very upset and didn't know how to say it. Seeing that Zeus was so depressed, the gods wanted to help find someone to replace him, but Zeus was not very satisfied with the girl he introduced.
One day, Apollo came to Troy and saw the handsome prince and ladies playing together. He thought there was such a handsome prince on the earth, so Apollo returned to the world of God and reported everything he saw in Troy to Zeus. Zeus felt incredible and wanted to see the Prince of Troy with his own eyes.
When Zeus saw Prince Troy, he missed him every day.
Zeus came to Troy again. When Prince Troy acted alone, Zeus became an eagle. After the prince noticed it, he grabbed the prince and returned to the divine world.
Prince Troy came to the celestial world, and Zeus asked him to pour wine for Zeus instead of the injured girl, but the prince had no choice but to stay in the celestial world.
The prince misses his hometown and family very much. At the same time, the king of Troy missed the prince very much. I wonder where he has gone. Zeus was ashamed and couldn't bear the prince to lose weight day by day, so he had a dream for the king and told him about the prince's situation in the divine world. In order to comfort the king, I gave him some horses as comfort.
Zeus also asked the prince to go back to Troy to see the king, and then came back to pour wine for Zeus. From then on, Prince Troy became a water bottle in the sky, responsible for pouring wine for Zeus.
Whenever you look up at the starry sky at night, do you see a shining Aquarius star pouring wine for you?

Venus, the beautiful goddess, took her beloved son little love god Cupid to a luxurious banquet. In this banquet, all the participants are gods, which can be called "God's feast".
Divines are more gorgeous than each other, and no one wants to be surpassed by others: as for the male gods, they are all in groups of three or five, talking with glasses in their hands. The naughty children couldn't hold back and played hide and seek.
