I'm assuming that all of us are capacorn

[@phightowerv]

Now that I know where to look, Capricornus appears to smile at us...at least it makes me 😀!

[@TigerWoodard]

God's creation is simply beautiful. I hope everyone had a blessed Easter yesterday. I've found a new hobby I think. Learning about everything I can in the night sky that my omnipotent master Jesus Christ has created. God bless you Janine, outstanding video and I love the music in the video

[@williamkelly7798]

I guess it is the reason why our knowledge and understanding of the universe makes sense to what we believe deep inside... Like the energy says something to us in a way we understand it... Where a lot of the lies probably begin and when we see things go wrong...
And it's probably also why we notice just about everything no one else does...
My December Capricorn opinion btw... Also, very well video, Miss 👌🧐😅

6:53 Algedi (or Giedi) in Arabic means "kid" meaning a Capricorn.

[@thinkgoodthoughts7047]

Great chanel thankyou. Question : would you know the significance, if any, of Taurus being choked by a snake?

[@learnthesky]

Hello there....I have not heard of Taurus being choked by a snake. There are so many constellations stories. If I heard of this story, I will post on this comment again.

[@kp34325]

Human imagination is incredible, Pan, etc. These are all human concepts, designed for a human creature "point of view" understanding. One thing for sure we know, all came from stardust (big bang hyp). So, logically speaking, we, stardust, have evolved into conscious awareness, held together by something that doesn't look like stardust, feel like stardust or act like stardust but has manifested as a reflection or mirror of itself, albeit, never quite fully owning/grasping this concept due to bodily, earthbound attachments. We are more than just creatures, living, we are the unmanifest unicity of awareness itself. The sky is littered with life, good thing mankind will never reach it & stay on earth. One could only imagine how they would start to monetize other planets "again". 😀

[@wesieboy56]

yay capricorn

[@salehalantere907]

Algedi means "The Goat" in Arabic, not the kid

[@ellissabogus6442]

Is Capricorn constellation in southern hemisphere?

[@learnthesky]

It can be seen in both the northern and southern hemisphere. The latitudes you can see Capricornus are between +60° and −90°.

[@misheckwams9748]

It is in Southern hemisphere. But can be seen from both northern hemisphere and Southern hemisphere. The Celestial Equator passed in Aquarius, the constellation next to it.
