There are several malefic Fixed Stars in the constellation Taurus the Bull.

 


Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac. The sun passes through this constellation from mid-May to late June.

 

 

The red star alpha Tau, called Aldebaran, represents the glowing eye of the bull. The open star cluster of the Hyades forms the head.

 

Aldebaran in Arabic means "the follower" (i.e., of the Pleiades, the star cluster that precedes it). Aldebaran is the 13th brightest star in the heavens, a red star.

 

In esoteric astrology, Aldebaran is a Fixed Star. The Fixed Stars had special meaning to the ancients. If you'd like to learn more, click here to visit my webpage on the Fixed Stars. Aldebaran is one of 3 (originally 4) malevolent (bad) Fixed Stars in Taurus. Its meaning is RESPONSIBLE POSITION AND DANGER OF VIOLENCE. Here are the other 3 Fixed Stars in Taurus:

Hamal, THE DEATH STAR 9 Taurus - this year, April 29


Caput Algol, MEDUSA'S HEAD (DEATH BY DECAPITATION) 24 Taurus, this year May 15


Pleiades, THE WEEPING SISTERS, 29 Taurus, this year May 20


Aldebaran, due to the Procession of the Equinoxes, is currently at 8 Gemini and it opposes Antares, EVIL PRESAGES AND DANGER OF FATALITY at 8
Sagittarius.

 

Some of these meanings are overly dramatic by today's standards of communication, especially since we don't like to lable things as "good" or "bad", but they do tell you a bit more about the esoteric side of the sign Taurus.

 

Orion (the constellation) is forever fighting thisTaurus bull in the skies.

 

Astronomically speaking ... the Pleiades open cluster of stars is 10 million years old (?) and is smaller and more compact than the Hyades cluster. It has not yet had time to dissipate as much as the Hyades. Over the years, the stars in the Pleiades will move farther and farther apart because the gravity within the cluster isn't strong enough to keep them in their original positions. One day in the far future, the Pleiades will be as spread out as the Hyades are now. There are many more than 7 stars now visible in the constellation with the naked eye.

 

Many a night I saw the Pleiades, rising thro' the mellow shade,
Glitter like a swarm of fireflies tangled in a silver braid.
by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

The Fixed Stars are an important part of ancient astrology that has not been given as much attention in modern psychological chart interpretations.

The Fixed Stars reveal an entirely new dimension to your self and your future.
Here's an excerpt from a report for a person born in July 1946:

Your Heliacal Rising Star is Sirius - The Scorcher. This is the star that has been walking the path of the underworld and has not emerged to be visible in the world of humans until the moment of your birth. This star, the Heliacal Rising Star, will bear gifts to you.... This star is a theme in your life.

Sirius is a marker of great deeds. It indicates that the mundane may become sacred, that the small action of the individual has a large effect on the collective. The individual may be sacrificed to this collective expression, or may gain fame and glory. It is a blast of energy ....
