The zodiac originated from the Babylonians who divided the sky into 12 sections representing 12 phases of the sun. The Greeks later adopted this concept and assigned representations of animals to each section, known as signs of the zodiac. Each zodiac sign is associated with an element and a planet and has a symbolic representation such as the ram for Aries or the scales for Libra.

Star of bethleham2
The document discusses theories about the Star of Bethlehem based on astronomical phenomena and biblical passages. It suggests that a series of rare planetary conjunctions between Jupiter and other planets/stars from 3 BC to 2 BC, culminating with Jupiter stopping over Bethlehem on December 25, 2 BC, likely inspired the Magi's journey and matched the description of the star. The document examines different interpretations of these signs by Roman, Jewish, and Magi observers and builds a chronological case for dating Jesus' birth to September 11, 3 BC.
Star of bethleham2
The document discusses various astronomical phenomena that may have been the Star of Bethlehem that guided the Magi to Jesus. It describes conjunctions of Jupiter, Venus, Mars and the star Regulus in 3-2 BC that could have signified to the Magi the birth of the Jewish king. The document also notes a possible nova or supernova in July 5 BC that Chinese records and an ancient Roman painting depict. Finally, it discusses how on December 25, 2 BC, Jupiter stopped in the constellation Virgo directly over Bethlehem, which may have indicated to the Magi to travel there, where they found Jesus.
Jack oughton brief history and mythology of saturn
Saturn was viewed differently by ancient cultures around the world. In Mesopotamia, Saturn was associated with the god Ninurta who rescued the Tablets of Fate. The Egyptians portrayed Saturn as the deity Horus sailing across the sky. In Greek mythology, Saturn was the Titan Kronos who ruled during the Golden Age until being overthrown by his son Zeus. The Romans adapted Saturn from Kronos and associated Saturn with structure, timekeeping, and agriculture. Ancient Indians viewed Saturn as the god of time Kala. Maya astrology precisely measured astronomical cycles including Saturn's. Chinese astrology saw Saturn as the Wood Star ruled by earth. Ancient views of Saturn still influence us through planet names,

Star of bethleham
The document discusses evidence that a series of astronomical events in the skies over Jerusalem, including multiple conjunctions of Jupiter, Venus, and Regulus between 3 BC and 2 BC, along with a nova, likely served as the "Star of Bethlehem" that guided the Magi to visit the newborn Jesus. It summarizes the astronomical events in detail and argues they would have signaled to the Magi that a new Jewish king had been born, as they followed Jupiter's path through the night sky until it stopped over Bethlehem on December 25, 2 BC. The document also discusses other evidence supporting Jesus' birth occurring between 3 BC to 2 BC.

Maymay report
Ptolemy listed 48 constellations in his Almagest, including 21 northern, 12 zodiac, and 15 southern constellations. The earliest evidence of constellations comes from Mesopotamian star catalogs from 1300-1000 BC which included the farming calendar tradition and divine associations of constellations. Orion correlation theory suggests that ancient Egyptians believed gods descended from the belt of Orion and Sirius and instigated the human race, which may explain why the Great Pyramid air shafts point to Orion.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

- 1. Zodiac Zodiac comes from the Greek word Zodiakos Kyrklos , or "circle of little animals". The Greeks pilfered the concept from the Babylonians who had decided that the Sun passed through 12 phases or signs whose representations could be sketched out in the constellations. The Greeks finished appropriating the concept around the Sixth Century B.C. They then came up with their own explanations for how these figures ended up in the sky.
