- ASELLUS BOREALIS (Gamma Cancri). The lore of the sky is not monolithic, but cuts amazingly across time and cultures. There is no single set of stories, as witness Cancer, the Crab, one of the dimmer figures of the Zodiac that is sandwiched between Gemini and Leo.
Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth? Why do you tell me to carry them in my arms, as a nurse carries an infant, to the land you promised on oath to their ancestors?
Numbers 11:12 NIV
