The Stomach has three stars. Ancient Chinese Astrologers call it Wei, or belly, ruled by Venus. It's astrological symbolism is described thus:
A sign of good fortune and the accumulation of wealth. Lucky for both building and burial. Children of a marriage contracted on this day will be familiars of the Emporer.**
Early Arabian Astrologers called the Stomach Al Butain. Here is their Portent:
Helps the finding of treasures and retaining of captives. With Moon here, buy and sell but avoid the sea.*
In ancient India, Astrologers called the Stomach Bharani, and offered the following Portent:
A severe asterism belonging to the lowest caste and favorable for acts of destruction, deceit, burning and poison when containing the Moon. Those born on the lunar day will be wicked, and dealers in precious stones. With Moon here at birth native will be faithful, persevering, healthy, successful and free from cares. Rules streets and the soles of the feet.*
