"Other sheep I have which are not of this fold. Them also I must bring." Jesus' words come to mind as I think of the constellations the Big and Little Dippers. The North Star in the Little Dipper (better translated from the original language as the little sheepfold ) represents Jesus, from the sheepfold of Judah, and around which the whole cosmos rotates or revolves. And, the Big Dipper/the "other" Sheepfold represents the gentile nations of the world, and stars from that constellation point directly to the North Star. So much symbolism in the heavens written there for our benefit. We'll have to bring you the book "The Gospel in the Stars" by Joseph Seiss! Thanks for sharing your art instruction. We love you, sweet granddaughter!
