About the star :

A multiple and slightly variable, 2.2 to 2.8, pale rose on Cassiopeia the Ethiopian Queen.

Schedar from Al Sadr, "the Breast", which the star marks in the figure. Some, however, have asserted that they are from the Persian Shuter "Camel" for the constellation of Cassiopeia - Al Tizini called it a Kneeling Camel.

Shadar, Schedar, Shedar, Sheder, Seder, Shedis, Zedaron, were variations. (Allen).


Influence of the constellaion :

Haughtiness, boastfulness, exaggerated pride and at the same time power of commanding respect. The Ethiopian Queen is associated the Hebrew letter Beth and the 2nd Tarot Trump "The High Priestess". (Robson).


Remember, only the parallel and conjunction are important and the orb must be no more than 1 (one) degree.

Influence of the star:

Incorporates serious demeanor with joi-se-vivre. This star is not considered unlucky, but a certain amount of demonic power seems to be ascribed to it. Should good living transgress reasonable limits the results will be disadvantageous. (Ebertin).
