Roof Top:
A Black Tortoise Constellation
Key Star: Alpha Aqr (Alpha Aquarii)
The "Roof Top" Constellation has three stars and ancient Chinese Astrologers called it Wei to describe steepness or danger ruled by the moon. Author and Astrologer Derek Walters suggests the following Portent:
The dangers portended by this sign are to travelers by land or water, the former being attacked on the way, and the latter's ship foundering.**
Early Arabian Astrologers call "Roof Top" Al Sa'd al Ahbiyah and interpreted this Portent:
The Lucky Star of Hidden Things or Hiding Places. Favorable for besieging and revenge, destroys enemies, causes divorce, helps prisons and buildings, hastens messengers, hinders childbirth and hinders the action of the body. With Moon here, unfortunate for everything except taking medicine.*
In India, ancient Astrologers call "Roof Top" Catabhishaj and interpret as:
A mutable asterism belonging to the butcher caste and favorable for commencing work of an impermanent or moving character. Those born on the lunar day will be fishermen, washermen, or dealers in wine, fish and birds. With Moon here at birth native will be eloquent, harsh in speech, truthful, adventurous, thoughtless, independent, gambler, fond of bad women, murderer of enemies. Rules streets and the right thigh.*
