Today is Tanabata in Japan.☆It's my favorite holiday! It has a really beautiful story, doesn't it?
I'll wish for energy and perservernce on my work this year. I really need it (tears)
As for on the topic of stars, there is a costellation of seven stars. There were seven sisters - The Pleiads. Orion saw the Pleiads in the countryside and persued them for seven years. until Zeus answered their prayers for delivery and transformed them into Doves where they flew into the sky and became the cluster of seven sister stars in the sky.
This is my favorite story of stars. I have been wanting to find The Pleiades for years. I think I may try and find the time to go out and search with the telescope.
Oddly enough in Chinese constellation they are "Mao".
Overall - Seven is such a wonderful number!
Also -- Uh, hallo thar cat. She is so cu~te when she is sleeping.
