estrella Nashira - Grado 22 de Acuario

A star in the tail of the Sea Goat Capricornus.


The Arabic name for Nashira is Sa'd Nashirah, "The lucky star of Nashirah" or "the Fortunate One", or "the Bringer of Good Tidings", which the early Arabs applied to this when taken with delta (Deneb Algedi).

Ideler said that these stars (Deneb Algedi and Nashira) were Al Muhibbain, "the Two Friends", an Arabic allegorical title for any two closely associated objects; but Beigel differed with him as to this, and wrote it Al Muhanaim, "the Two Bending Stars", in the flexure of the tail.

Gamma marked the 27th Babylonian ecliptic asterism, Mahar sha hi-na Shahu, "the Western One in the Tail of the Goat".

With delta (Deneb Algedi), epsilon (Castra), kappa and stars in Aquarius and Pisces it was the Chinese Luy Pei Chen, "the Intrenched Camp". (Allen).


This star, Nashira and Deneb Algedi are particularly representitive of the idea of the Fish-Goat or Sea-Goat because they mark the fish-tail of the Goat figure. Alan Oken in Complete Astrology says "the Mountain-Goat will pursue life so that Mankind may serve him. The Mer-Goat has already played out that game and knows that the seat of real power and wealth lies beyond the realm of the personal ego. The Sea-Goat will become the servant of man". Capricorn is the traditional sign in which the sun-gods and redeemers were born.

The amphibious Goat-Fish god of pre-Babylonia, Ea/Oannes, would undoubtedly be "the Bringer of Good Tidings". Oannes was called "The Antelope of the Subterranean Ocean", "He of the vast intellect", "Lord of the Sacred Eye", "God of Wisdom". He arouse from the ocean and taught the Chaldaeans literature, sciences and arts of every kind. He taught them to construct cities, to found temples, to compile laws and explained to them the principles of geometrical knowledge. He made them distinguish the seeds of the earth and showed them how to collect the fruits; in short he instructed them in everything which could tend to soften manners and humanize their lives. (The Secret Teachings Of All Ages Manly P Hall 1928 p.LXXV-c).

In Greek myth the fish-tailed goat is identified with the goat-god, Pan. This Pan was known as Aegipan.





Influence of the constellation:

The Goat is associated with the Hebrew letter Yod and the 10th Tarot Trump, The Wheel of Fortune". (Robson).



Influence of the star:

According to Ptolemy it is of the nature of Saturn and Jupiter; and, to Simmonite, of Saturn. It causes overcoming by evil, which is turned to success, and gives danger from beasts. (Robson).

Dependent on its position in the chart it will bring a life full of change. According to Arabic tradition this star will make a native become a legal advisor or counselor and will give such a person the ability to hold a position of trust. This star makes for integrity and justice and gives a knowledge of man. Therefore we see here a refining Saturn influence, this will be achieved if the natal Saturn is well placed. It is interesting that Deneb Algedi is to be found in three birth charts of present day atomic physicists (names listed in Fixed Stars by Ebertin-Hoffman). (Ebertin).
