About this star:

Coxa is Latin for "hip".

This star Coxa along with the star delta (Zosma) on the hind quarter were Al Kihil al Asad, the "Space between the Shoulders" of the Lion, Leo. The "Two Little Ribs", or the" two Khurt", or "Holes", penetrating into the interior of the Lion.

On the Euphrates they were Kakkab Kua, the constellation of the god Kua, the "Oracle".

In Egypt, Mes-su, the "Heart of Su"
In Sogdiana they were "Wadha, the Wise"
In Khorasmia, Armagh, the "Great".

The Arabic name for Coxa or Chort is Al-Kharat, "The rib".

They were the Arabic 9th manzil Al Zubrah "The Mane" (though nowhere near the mane of the Lion we know now; Arabs had a much larger lion figure for Leo) [Influences of 9th mansion: Good for voyages, gain by merchandise, redemption of captives (Robson)].

This star theta (Coxa) shares with delta (Zosma) the title Al H'aratan. Al Biruni wrote that "when they rise Suhail is seen in Al Izak," — wherever this may be. The Century Cyclopedia gives Chort as the individual name, from the combined title.

In India they marked the 9th nakshatra, Purva Phalguni, delta being the junction star between the two Phalguni asterisms.

These stars are said to give the ability to prophesy [perhaps relating to the symbolism of the book-carrying lion in his prophetic role]. (Allen).

Influence of the constellation:

The Lion is associated with the Hebrew letter Kaph and the 11th Tarot Trump "Strength". (Robson).

Influence of the star:

Ability to prophesy. On the Euphrates this star along with Zosma, was the god Kua, the Oracle. (Noonan).
