Emptiness:
A Black Tortoise Constellation
Key Star: Beta Aqr
The Emptiness Constellation has two stars and ancient Chinese Astrologers described it as empty ruins, the officials responsible for a funeral, a palm to punish sin, or the ghost of God. An interpretation could be:
Ill luck awaits those who construct buildings or dig trenches. Tigers will snatch up infants, illnesses will afflict the family for several years and the family will be plunged into ruin. The children of marriages contracted on this day will conduct themselves badly.**
Early Arabian Astrologers calledl Emptiness Al Sa'd al Su'ud and interpreted it quite differently as follows:
The Luckiest of the Lucky. Gives marital happiness, victory of soldiers but prevents the execution of government. With Moon here, build, marry, make friends and travel.*
In India, ancient Astrologers called this asterism Sravishtha and offered the following Portent:
A mutable asterism belonging to the serving caste and favorable for commencing work of an impermanent or moving character. Those born on the lunar day will be shameless, rich, generous, women haters and will have few friends. With Moon here at birth native will be wealthy, liberal, fond of music, valiant, niggardly. Rules mills and the excretory system.*
