The Bond:
A White Tiger Constellation
Key Star: Beta Ari (Beta Arietis)
The Bond has three stars. Ancient Chinese Astrologers call it Leu, the train of a garment, ruled by Venus. It's astrological symbolism is described thus:
This day is fortunate for the construction of a triumphal arch, and the opening of doors. Children born of a marriage contracted today will fill their pockets with silver, gold and precious stones. It is also a good day for digging trenches and opening watercourses. Men and women will spend their time in joyous abandon.**
Early Arabian Astrologers called the Bond Al Sharatain. Here is their Portent:
Causes discords and journeys. With Moon here, buy cattle, plant and take voyages. This mansion is now considered to begin the series.*
In ancient India, Astrologers called the Dipper Asvini, and offered the following Portent:
It is a light asterism belonging to the Vaisya caste and favorable for sales, art, sculpture, learning, marital love, wearing of ornament, medicine and purchase of carriages when containing the Moon. Those born on the lunar day will be physicians, military commanders and dealers in horses. With Moon here at birth native will be polite, fond of ornaments, handsome, popular and intelligent. Rules towns and the upper part of the feet.*
