An orange star in the Dragon, Draco.

The Arabic name for Edasich is Adh-Dhikh, "The hyena".

In China it was Tso Choo, the "Left Pivot". (Allen).

Influence of the constellation:

According to Ptolemy the bright stars are like Saturn and Mars. Draco gives an artistic and emotional but somber nature, a penetrating and analytical mind, much travel and many friends, but danger of robbery and accidental poisoning. It gives craft, ingenuity, and valor. The Ancients said that when a comet was here, poison was scattered over the world. By the Kabalists it is associated with the Hebrew letter Mem and the 13th Tarot Trump, "Death". (Robson).
