towards the heaven i seek guidance...
i see three stars in a straight line...inside constellation Orion the hunter...
the middle star in the line named Al-Nilam...
Betelgeuse is the hunter left shoulder...Bellatrix is his right shoulder...
while Rigel being his leg that stands forward....
i gaze from Betelgeuse to see Procyon...in constellation Canis Minor...one of Orion hounds...
right behind Orion is Canis Major..the greater hunting hound...where Sirius can be seen...
Orion the hunter fought against Taurus the bull...star Aldebaran formed one of the bull great horn...
above the hunter..the Gemini twin named Castor and Pollux oversees the fight between Orion and Taurus...
but Orion the hunter life wont end by Taurus the raging bull...but a by the sting of Scorpio represented by the star Shaula at the hunters leg...the head of the killer scorpion is the star Antares...
and thus the hunter dies...
twilights come and the stars came out...
observations were made and position were determined
i gaze the heavens and i calculate my errors...
and i seek the guidance of the hunter for other stars...
oh faithful and bright ones..by thee light i navigate
-come to sea and see for yourself-
