Okay.. today I am going off on a slightly different tack.... look at the Tarot card picture of the Universe and Dancer ( 21 TH - cross Saturn )on my pictures at Picasa and on the right of this blog.
NOTE she holds Draco.. and the golden apples.. which is for me being the sun ( gold ) apples ( magnetic lines ) from NEP ( north ecliptic pole )

to SEP ( south ecliptic pole ) http://www.astro.illinois.edu/~jkaler/sow/dor-t.html


Both of these markers are connected to dancers - The name Dorado is from the leaper as a dolphin fish and from the word Choryphaena meaning leading dancer and/ or singer and ir is the Gold Fish alongside the great boat guiding it, as it were, in its journey to the other shore. It is associated with the swordfish Xiphias ( which is also Makara and Capricorn )

One might find the constellation on your hand in some people - or something akin to the shape of it.
Arrakis (mu ) the dancer of Arrakis is close to the NEP and Dorado itself is a leading 'dancer '. Close to Table Mountain - MENSA and Reticulum the Net.
Note that Dorado means ' place of gold ' . The fish turns a variety of colors - mainly blue and gold on it removal from the water. It ( the male ) is also noted for its forehead which is uncannily similar to Mayan and Olmec heads..

Here is a good link

I leave it to your imagination !!
DUNE AND SPICE have been used in connection to this star Mu Dra but apparently as a planet around Canopus the boat - but realize that it is Dorado that is around that great Boat Argo.
I wonder what this REALLY all means .. just some strange coincidence or some real pointer to a plan and design where the boat ( vessel Mahayana? )is the holder of some real wisdom of the stars.
* Mu Draco is not exactly on the northern ecliptic - it is around the diamond shape ( head of the dragon ) so it IS not totally 100% correct to use this star - I use it because it refers to my own personal view and life pattern to examine both the area, myth and science.
The south ecliptic pole is approximately in the large Magellanic Cloud
where at 30 Doradus we see the Tarantula Nebula
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarantula_Nebula
Now we know that Tarantula is the basis of the dance tarantala from Scicily where the dancer uses a tamborine... see the picture of Esmeralda.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tambourine
Drum... yogins fly on drum sounds... see myth of Kailas and the 'scar' down its face.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taranto

Look at the coin with Taras riding the dolphin ! - a connection to the family of dolphin fish .. the mammal kind and not the dolphin fish. How weird that these symbols are all collected here !
How odd that there should be a dancer and choreographer ( choryphaena ) called John Taras.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Taras

how odd that we should find Tara connected to it as well
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taras


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tara

And if Tara takes you across the river then she is a like a dolphin that is alongside the boat of Argo .
Ha just found this - jumping ( leapers dancers ) spiders
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salticidae

NOTE that the Latin word Saltare is dancer / leaper.
We can form this word too from the Tetragrammaton in this manner :
the four corners , guardians in the western traditions are constellations:
Scorpio; Aquarius; Leo; Taurus... the initials are : S A L T with a dancer in the middle - card 21 again tarot.

of course we cannot ignore Bagheera that black panther and reminiscent of Baghera Bagavan etc.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bagheera
In the second film, he reappears as the serious Bagheera. He, with the help of Colonel Hathi's troops tries to prevent Baloo from reaching the man village. When the villagers try to find Mowgli, he suspects that Baloo has briught him back (he was right). Baloo hides Mowgli from him, making Bagheera believe that he was not with him. After Shere Khan was trapped, Mowgli meets him again. Near the end of the film, Ranjan was shown playing with Baggy's tail. At first Bagheera was scared, but later enjoyed playing with him, while Mowgli and Baloo sing the reprise of The Bare Necessities.


n the comic book series Fables, Bagheera appears as one of the characters living in exile on the Farm in upstate New York. Along with the other "Kipling" fables, he assists Goldy Locks in tracking down Reynard the Fox. Bagheera actually succeeds in tracking down Reynard, though the Fox manages to escape from him. It is implied Bagheera's primary motivation for capturing the Fox was to show up Shere Khan after Khan arrogantly rejects Bagheera's offer of help.

BALOOOOOOOOOOOoo where are you......
But the dancer is a spider and also a web weaver and silk too... I am weaving my oen story here from the stars and the symbols - its gets so weird that my mouth is opened in a maze ment !

** the one thing that interest me is that the ecliptic poles DO NOT CHANGE so it is with Dorado and Draco.. a point across from the dragon /serpent head.
If Golden apples are ' pupils' and black holes or something akin to a hole / entrance / channel - then my sci fi mind is getting the better of me :) !
