Which Constellation are you? (Mythology Edition)

You got Orion! The hunter. You are a strong-willed person who will do anything to achieve what you want. You can be stubborn from time to time but you have an overall positive effect on everyone else.

Orion was the only male Hunter of Artemis. The other hunters didn't appreciate his company, but he respected the ladies to do what they needed to do. Eventually, Apollo got worried that Artemis may betray her vow of eternal maidenhood with Orion, so he asked his great-grandmother, Gaia, for a favor. Gaia placed a giant scorpion in the path of Orion one day while he was hunting and the scorpion killed Orion. After that, Artemis came by to check on him and saw him dead amidst a giant scorpion. Artemis killed the scorpion and placed Orion and it in the sky as constellations to forever be remembered, side by side.

You got Cassiopeia! The Seated Queen. You are an intelligent person and are physically attractive. You are quite vain too, which gets you into trouble quite often. Why else would Cassiopeia be hung on an upside-down throne in the middle of the sky?

Cassiopeia was the queen of Aethiopia. She had two other family members, both constellations as well. Andromeda, the Chained Maiden, and Cepheus, the King. Cassiopeia lived a privileged life, that is until she became very vain and began to boast about being more beautiful than the Nereids, the immortal daughters of the ancient sea god Nereus. She was cursed to live in the sky for an eternity, upside-down on her throne as an insult to her and her bragging.

You got Hercules! Needless to say you are a strong person who's quick to anger, though you are a hero at heart.

I don't have time to write about this dude, but you can search him up. Or you can watch the Disney movie, it's lit. All in all, Hercules was probably the most famous hero in all of mythology, as he fought 99% of everything in Greek Mythology.

You got Ursa Major! The Greater Bear. You are a kind, gentle person who believes in peace above all else. You are protective to those you care about as well.

Ursa Major came to be when Callisto, a hunter of Artemis, had an affair with the god Zeus. Zeus came up to her disguised as Artemis and caught Callisto off guard. He raped her and sped off, leaving her confused and seriously pissed off. She managed to hide her pregnant belly for a few months, but then it began to show. Artemis asked her who did this to her and Callisto replied in shame that it was Zeus. Artemis got upset and turned Callisto into a bear. She added that is Callisto had told her the truth before, Artemis wouldn't have had to turn her into a bear, and Callisto could have retired from the Hunters of Artemis with honor, but instead she chose to hide it. Callisto fled. Eventually, she gave birth to a son. Completely human. His name was Arcas. Artemis transferred the baby to Callisto's family in Arcadia to her father, king Lycaon. One day, Callisto accidentally wandered into Arcadia. Arcas, unknowingly, tried to kill his mother. To prevent that, Zeus turned both of them into constellations. Ursa Major and Ursa Minor.

You got Aries! The Ram! You are hardcore and driven by passion to pursue, well, whatever you need to pursue.

Aries has an interesting story. It all began when a man named Athamas married a cloud nymph named Nephele. They had two children named Helle and Phrixus. I know, the names are stupid, but bear with me. Athamas and Nephele divorced, so Athamas got remarried to a woman named Ino. Ino was the epitome of evil. Wicked. She tried to sacrifice Helle and Phrixus to the gods by burning them in a fire. Nephele sent a rescue team consisting of a magical flying golden ram. Helle and Phrixus climbed onto the ram and they flew all the way to Colchis, which is a city in western Turkey, all the way over on the other side of the Aegean Sea. Helle fell off the ram and died along the way, but that's not important. Phrixus made it though, and when he did the ram requested to be sacrificed in order to please the gods. And he did. Before that, though, he skinned the sheep, which created the Golden Fleece. When the ram died, the gods decided to give it a place in the sky as the constellation, Aries.

You got Corona Borealis! The Northern Crown. You are a classy person, who's very sophisticated and elite. You don't like it when things don't go your way and you can be a bit of a diva sometimes.

This constellation is based on the crown of the Cretan princess, Ariadne. She was Theseus's lover before he ditched her on the island Dia on their escape. The wine god, Dionysus, found her and fell in love with her. He took the crown from her head and threw it into the sky to bring her eternal glory before making her his immortal wife.

You got Lyra! The Lyre. You have knack for playing music and are a very free person. You don't feel like you're limited to yourself and believe that anything can be achieved with the right amount of effort.

The lyre is a musical instrument, kinda like a harp, created by Hermes. He made it using cow tendons and a tortoise shell. Apollo liked the sound of it so much he made it hiss trademark. Eventually, he gave it to Orpheus, a Greek hero, and told him to spread knowledge about this instrument and that he doesn't want to have the only one in existence.

You got Delphinus! The Dolphin. You are a playful soul and love having fun! You are kind, and generous, but have a split personality too. When you get angry, things get REAL.

Delphinus is the immortal king of the dolphin race. He was the first dolphin. Papa dolphin. Poseidon sent him one day to convince Amphitrite, a sea nymph, to marry him. Amphitrite had run away to the Atlas mountains in fear of Poseidon as he was DESPERATE to marry her. Delphinus managed to do so and Poseidon, as a thank you, put him in the sky to be remembered forever as the Great Papa Dolphin.
