Mythologies have taken many a page from these stars and groomed them to galore and eternal regale.

The constellations of sky
All the notable stars in the sky are listed across different cultures. Over time, I’ll keep expanding more information about them in terms of mythologies and astrology.
The constellations are listed in 12 quadrants (which in Sanskrit used to be known as Vithi). 30 degrees, east to west. In each of them, the constellations are ordered north to south. This should be indicative of their positions to each other, up to down, for cognition.
Click on the names of the constellation, you’ll be taken to the post. The smaller ones with few or no significant stars are clubbed together in the same post, but will appear differently in this list. The Sanskrit name for all of them is given, along with few other names for them. More details will keep getting updated periodically.

A coat of quotes and passing poetry
"
He who bends to himself a joy,
Does the winged life destroy ; But he who kisses the joy as it flies.
Lives in eternity's sunrise.
If you trap the moment before it's ripe, The tears of repentance you'll certainly wipe ;
But, if once you let the ripe moment go.
You can never wipe off the tears of woe.
"Winged Life | The poetry of Horace
