The Assassins

Compiling a bit of what details we know about the four assassins who died in Moonrise. Post will contain spoilers for season 7.

Their names are Callisto, Andromeda, Skor, and Ram.

We have bits and pieces about each of them. We see Skor, Andromeda, and Callisto all in training with Runaan back in Bloodmoon Huntress. While I think it's likely the writers intended for the fourth elf with them to be Ram, he's enough in the background that there isn't a lot of the usual identifying details present, and that elf is notably taller next to Skor and Andromeda than Ram is, so I'm inclined to set that aside as evidence for him.

Andromeda was also noted to be a student at the time. Runaan specifically says she cannot be a full assassin until she masters Moonshadow form, and she hadn't yet. It's unclear if Callisto and Skor are just fellow assassins at practice or students in training, but based on how handily Runaan dispatches Callisto in their bout, them all being students is highly possible. However, they're more analogous to college students than high school, as Runaan does dispatch them on patrols around the village during the Blood Moon.

Andromeda

Andromeda may be the one we know the most about.

Andromeda is a married woman. She's the only assassin on the mission who is married other than Runaan. We do not have any further canon information about her partner. She was already married in Bloodmoon Huntress, as a student of Runaan's, so we can assume she was already functionally an adult. We know she's married because she wears cuffs around the base of her horns, like Runaan does.

The rings further up her horns, and the chains that decorate them and her hair, appear to be decorative; we have no indication they're ceremonial, unlike the cuffs at the base, and many Moonshadow elves wear rings and caps further up the length of their horns. (Lujanne being an easily referenced example) So she has a preference for heavy ornamentation, reflected in both her jewelry and her tattoos, which include lines down her thighs that match the lines of her clothing, and a window to show off said thighs.

She pledged her eyes for truth during the mission to Katolis, and accepts Rayla's case that Rayla and the boys found the truth and brought it to light when her spirit is summoned in the Ritual of the New Moon.

She likes to talk and was the first of the other assassins to befriend Rayla as a child. She was also instrumental in shaping Rayla's admiration of Runaan, which was fanned into hero worship by the events of Bloodmoon Huntress, and led Rayla to becoming an assassin in the first place. She is the only assassin whose shade has no accusatory dialogue towards Rayla in Through the Moon, too, with her only line being "At last" as she realizes Rayla's bindings are gone and her soul can find peace.

We also know that Moonshadow elves braid each other's hair as a gesture of affection, and that they will keep these braids in for extended periods of time. Andromeda's forward hanks of hair are both braided, which may have been a gift from her partner before she left. I keep saying her partner because we know nothing about the partner, except that they loved Andromeda and she loved them.

She was also likely the first to die at the assassination, as we don't see her again after the first press towards the door fails.

Callisto

Callisto appears to act as Runaan's second in command on the mission to Katolis, but it's based on pretty shaky reasoning.

They were the one we saw perched on a branch with Runaan voicing an opinion that the group should take Rayla along on the mission after all, which is interesting, after the book indicates the other assassins wanted Runaan to kill her. So either Callisto actually believed in Rayla when the others didn't, and thought she could make up for the mistake, or the less likely idea that they planned to ensure she was killed in the assault.

Callisto is an androgynous name (masculine in some languages, feminine in others, none of the origins being English), and their appearance is fairly androgynous as well. They have a male voice actor, but that's the only thing we really have to go on regarding their gender, and voices are highly subjective. As viewers we can probably safely assume they were meant to be a man, but there's nothing to disprove alternative headcanons, either.

Unusual also is that Callisto has their hair cut short, and completely shaved on the sides and back. No other Moonshadow elf in canon has their hair completely short like this; which makes sense, given braids and their importance in the culture. The only other one who comes close is Ram, whose hair is also relatively short, but far from shaved. Callisto also has black eyebrows in contrast to their white hair, indicating that they likely either stain their brows or bleach their hair. Bleaching the hair seems more likely, as that's a highly uniform thing amongst Moonshadow elves.

Callisto can also be assumed to be fairly close with Runaan. When the assassins' spirits confront Rayla in Through the Moon, theirs is one of the fiercest attackers (along with Skor), and they talk the most, but most of their dialogue is repeats of things we've already heard Runaan say to her. "You let a human live and you doomed us all". "Our mission was a failure."

They pledged their breath for freedom on the mission to Katolis, and is the one of the assassins with the most speaking lines, so they're likely a talker when given the motivation and chance.

Ram

Ram is the only one we have named family members for.

Ram comes from what qualifies as a well-off family in the Silvergrove. His father is the Keeper, which appears to be a highly respected social and somewhat religious role. Ram is also likely the youngest of the assassins other than Rayla, as he's the only one who may not have been seen in Bloodmoon Huntress. He pledged his blood for justice on the mission to kill King Harrow.

We know that Ram had a positive relationship with his father. Lyrennus was proud of the path he took, and saw him off on the mission to Katolis just as Ethari saw Runaan and Rayla off. It's not explicitly stated, but my impression from how Lyrennus handled Rayla's return - and her concern for him - is that they had no other family left. It was just the two of them.

He's also always shown using daggers and knives, but during the preparation scene in the second episode, he does handle a bow. So it's likely his primary weapon is knives, but he uses a bow as a secondary, and it just isn't possible to make knives convert to a bow his size as is the case with Runaan's bowblades.

Ram also appears to be a fairly quiet individual, but to have a forgiving heart. He's also highly observant. His spirit is the one to notice Rayla's bindings are gone in Through the Moon, and to stop the others from attacking her. While he was the shade that accused her of lying, he's also the first to forgive her and let go of their unfinished business.

Skor

Skor is potentially the one we know the least about, which is a shame. (it's a shame we know so little about them all, though)

He and Callisto both have Scottish accents like Rayla, where the other three's are (presumably) English (Andromeda's is aggressively so, Ram's is less so but his father has far more dialogue and is solidly English).

He seems to be a fairly gruff individual, but perhaps more forgiving than Andromeda, because when Rayla speaks to him after they discover her lie, he answers her. He's short about it and refuses to give her the help she asks for, but he doesn't ignore her like Ram does or give her the silent glower that Andromeda uses. This might be driven by what we can assume is a strong honor code; he swore his strength for honor on the mission.

Skor is also one of the fiercest attackers Rayla faces in Through the Moon, and is the one to shoot straight for her insecurities by saying "What good is an assassin who can't kill?" so he likely is a fairly perceptive individual who can use words with as much deadly precision as his swords.

He's also quite physically powerful, as shown when he and Runaan were able to break open King Harrow's door where Callisto couldn't. He may have survived the longest other than Runaan at the assassination, as he's the only one we see actually break into the room with Runaan. He's also possibly the oldest of the assassins other than Runaan, as he's the only one we don't see being absolutely trounced in assassin training in Bloodmoon Huntress. He and Callisto share the status of being at the training but not quantified explicitly as students or peers of Runaan's.

Skor also has a braid holding back the hair along the shave line of his undercut, which may indicate he has family waiting at home who put it there for him.

[keirakeylb]

She heard the sound of weakness, tormented murmurs. She remembered Narcissa's crying when she was born. He listened to his mother's soft and scratchy voice telling him her last words. Remember the first time Andromeda called her, "Bella”. She listen to Sirius' screams the night before running away from home. He remembers Regulus' bitter sobs determined to seek his freedom.

All his life his love had been mute. Loving in silence has a hint of sadness, it tastes like ink in the inkwell. You can love in silence until one day you find yourself dumb, full of words that torment you in silence. One is speechless and silence arrives, one speaks, makes noise, talks and does not listen, and to listen you first have to shut up.

Bellatrix remembers that as a child she was never afraid of the dark, but she was afraid of silence. He made sure to turn on a radio before going to sleep. The silence scared her, as if she could hear the voice of silence whispering in her ear. And that's why she always made sure of be the opposite; she was bitter, hated, noisy.

Some time later, when Bellatrix understood that she was just silence, she would look back and manage to understand why so much fear of silence.

Algol and Perseus

The rescuer and the demon

Sebastiano Ricci Antonio Canova

Algol is the beta star of the constellation Perseus, currently sitting at 26° Taurus, known as “the demon star” or "blinking demon", its name comes from the arabic Al Ghul meaning "the demon". To hellenistic astrology it represents Medusa’s head, which Perseus holds on one hand, while on the other he has his sword. An important characteristic of Algol is that its glow has a regular variation, it loses half of its brightness for hours and then it gains back. It was believed by astrologers to be an eclipsing star, which means that another non-visible body would be orbiting it and therefore eclipsing its light from time to time. They were half right, because it was later discovered to be an eclipsing star system, and that Algol was actually 3 stars, just like the Gorgon sisters are three: the imortals Stheno and Euryale, and the mortal Medusa. This is such a hallmark of Algol that it gave its name to its class of eclipsing variable: Algol variable.

Eclipses are associated with death, basically because light in astrology is life-giving, and loss of light is death. But it’s interesting that it's frequently associated with the "demonic", capital punishment and decapitation. Algol is telling a story about the decapitation of a “demon”, just like the lunar nodes (Rahu and Ketu) do in the Jyotish tradition when they cause eclipses. Ptolemy only tells us that the constellation of Perseus is like Jupiter and Saturn. Although Robson agrees with Agrippa about Algol specifically being of the nature of Saturn-Jupiter, and “the most evil star in the heavens”, causing a lot of fear whenever we see it activated in a chart. But I’m not here to scare anybody, don’t worry. It’s difficult, but I’ll try to lighten this up, because the most overlooked fact about Algol is that it also protects and can make revolutions and revolutionary heros.

"Perseus is like Jupiter and Saturn: but the nebula, in the hilt of the sword, is like Mars and Mercury." (Ptolemy - Tetrabiblos) "It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens" (Vivian E. Robson - The Fixed Stars and Constellations in Astrology)

Illustrations from Al-Sūfī's book of fixed stars

Eletrocution or electrical problems are an issue with eclipses and apparently also eclipsing star-systems like Algol. This is noted by Christopher Warnock about his Algol talismans:

"I have had multiple reports and have myself experienced Algol’s tendency to cause electrical and electronic interference when the talisman is first used.  I mysteriously lost my Internet connection for an hour and my electronic thermostat died.  One user had his entire block lose power.  Less frequently but still regularly clients have reported that while wearing their Algol talisman, “weird” or “freaky” people took one look at them and fled." (Christopher Warnock - Fixed star, Sign and Constellation Magic)

Other one of its proeminent themes is vengeance, or the dichotomy of justice vs vengeance, but the effect of reflecting back evil that's sent towards its direction, or of ending curses describes it better in my opinion. About the images of the fixed Behenian stars, Agrippa says that:

“Under Caput Algol, they made an image whose figure was the head of a man with a long beard, having a bloody neck. This brought the good outcome of petitions, gave the bearer boldness and nobility, preserved members of the body from injury, helped against sorceries, and reflected evil attempts and evil incantations from enemies”. (Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy - Eric Purdue's translation)

Piero di Cosimo

This protection side of the star is illustrated by the story of the champion Perseus not just decapitating the demon but using its head to free Andromeda from her chains and saving her and her city from another monster, and then Athena herself starts using the head of Medusa as a symbol on her shield. As established, this is a star of the nature of Jupiter and Saturn. The nature of Saturn is evidenced even by the names given to the star: demon, cacodaemon, which is also the greek name for the 12th house. Imprisonment, monstruosity and madness are clearly the most important Saturn and 12th house themes. But Algol is a protective star, particularly in astrological magic, although I'll show how this kinda manifests in nativities as well. Algol is mainly of a jupiterian nature, that's why it does liberates. The head is an evil daemon but also a protection amulet. This is interesting regarding the eclipsing factor and the similarity of the significations with the Jyotish Rahu and Ketu. In western astrology the nodes are considered to have effects like Jupiter and Saturn, and the topic of imprisonment-liberation is explored in the dynamic of the two*.

With the new interpretations of the Medusa myth, some astrologers say that Algol can be about "female rage" or "dark feminine", or "feminine jealousy" etc. I think this is one of the stories that people mix the astrological meaning with the morality of the greek myth associated with the star the most. The greek myth is not really the star and the star is not the greek myth. In my opinion, you always must take into consideration that some things can be just the way the greeks or romans viewed a certain theme, and of course they would put a violated woman to represent a monster on a mindless vendetta, and it's not meant to be complimentary. I believe that's already way beyond Algol's effects, it could be just their misogyny projected onto the stars. I can think of examples where I can see that kind of story taking place, but that doesn’t mean that the star is about those things, but just that this is one possibility because we live in patriarchy and things around women's issues can get ugly in an Algol manner. The star can be about capital punishment, monstruosity, madness, captivity, violation, injustice, vengeance, evil daemonic influences etc, but it's not really about cishet women. So, even though I’m also using the greek myth here, I’m not giving the most importance to the detail that it is a story about a woman receiving unfair punishment and that there's a lack of comradery between women, because I'm interested in the star beyond what greeks and romans said, because the stars can’t be represented by just one hegemonic narrative. A lot of other cultures had their different stories about Algol, the Medusa one isn’t special to the point that we could assume every detail about it, even its moral issues (which are also in this case suffering a bit from anachronism), has meaning for the star associated.

Perseus is a spring time constellation very near the bull (taurus), and that may sound too nice for such a scary one. But in babylonian astrology, the stars of Perseus actually formed the constellation of the Old Man, who also held a decapitated head and a rod instead of a sword. Of it, Gavin White has an interesting perspective to share:

“At this time of natural abundance, the earth was thought to ‘open up’ in order to yield her bounty, but to the archaic mind this opening up was accompanied by a host of dangers, chief of which was the potential pollution from the dead who could gain easy access to the upper worlds at this pivotal time. In light of this belief, I would suggest that the Old Man, with his wand and prophylactic head, is banishing the ghosts of the old year and driving them back to the underworld.”

Illutration from Gavin White's Babylonian Star-Lore

There's a lot of examples of charts for literal decapitation or capital punishment, injuries to the head or neck area as obvious manifestations of the star: The most famous is probably the catholic Saint George, who is said to have been executed by decapitation on April 23 back when that was the time of year when the Sun would conjunct Algol, and he later became associated with the constellation. Back then, Algol was at 2° Taurus. Gianni Versace, who had Algol on the descendant, famously made Medusa the logo of his brand and also died with a bullet to the head. Freud had Mercury with Algol, his 8th house ruler, and he died with throat cancer. Nick Yarris, who spent two decades on death row after he was wrongfully convicted of murder, has the Sun with Algol. Patrick Henry had Jupiter, and he was a murderer whose case influenced the abolition of the death penalty in France, which was done by the method of guillotine until its abolition. He was defended by Robert Badinter, who was an activist against the death penalty and could sucessfully propose its abolition in 1981. Badinter has Jupiter with the alpha of Andromeda in the first house. France has a thing with decapitation, some of the charts for its republics have either Algol or Mirfak activated, the alpha star of Perseus.

Algol and Madness

But I want to talk about Algol's special relationship with madness, in the demonized/criminalized sense, because after all, "the demon" is unwanted, it frequently represents the marginalized and their opression. In Brazil's history, especially during the military dictatorship organized and imposed by usamerican capitalist imperialism, asylums imprisoned and tortured mainly black people, women and queer people. Some asylums got so overwhelmed that they became concentration camps, like the famous case of Hospital Colônia in Barbacena, known as the Brazilian Holocaust case, where people died by the thousands from starvation, hypothermia, anemia, STI's, untreated diseases from the lack of hygiene etc. Some important psychiatrists, psychologists, psychoanalysts have Algol activated by some planet. Freud has Mercury, Fritz Perls has Jupiter, David Healy, who literally has a book titled "The Decapitation of Care", has Venus. But what's more interesting to me is the protection element of Algol in some cases and its role in mad liberation movements, after all, Perseus is a liberator. Algol shows up in very important people in the pysch field who question medical power and have antipsych views, and on important events of the psychiatric reform.

Hospital Colônia de Barbacena - MG

Franco Basaglia, the main responsible for the dismantling of psychiatric hospitals and for the psychiatric reform in Italy and for inspiring the one in Brazil, had the Moon with Algol in the 10th house, representing his deeds, while ruling the 12th. In Italy, the Law 180 (Basaglia Law), the Psychiatric Reform law that determined the progressive extinction of asylums throughout the italian territory, was sanctioned with the Sun on Algol. In Brazil, on May 18, 1987, the exact day of the year that the Sun conjuncts Algol, a meeting of mental health workers at a conference was the major milestone for Brazilian health reform and the anti-asylum movement. And since that event, May 18th has become our national anti-asylum movement day, and it becomes more and more culturally relevant as a day to discuss psychiatric reform and the fight to guarantee the rights and autonomy of mental patients.

Marches on May 18th

An important activist, Austregésilo Bueno, born with the Sun with Algol, survivor of compulsory hospitalization in asylums in the 70s, wrote a book "Canto dos Malditos" about his horrible experiences as a psychiatric patient treated with eletroshock therapy (another one of Algol's effects). He had his book adapted to film and his story played by the actor Rodrigo Santoro, who has Algol on the Ascendant. The name of the film is Brainstorm in English, but I find the original "Bicho de Sete Cabeças" much more compelling. It's a truly devastating story, and it's the story of thousands unfortunately.

One thing about Saturn and madness is the recurring idea of wearing masks. Masks and theatre have always been associated with Saturn. Saturnalia was a roman festival where all the roles switched, where kings pretended to be fools and fools pretended to be kings. In modern astrology Saturn ended up associated a lot with a raw and harsh reality, disregarding the most mystical and unreal characteristics of Saturn that have always been present. Although life, reality, identity and reason are always a performance, we're always wearing a mask and performing life. There's a point in the movie "Bicho de Sete Cabeças" when the protagonist is having a difficult time on his first days of being an inmate, he's fighting too much against the forced treatment and expressing too much unsatisfaction with his imprisonment, thus getting even more forcebly medicated and punished by the staff. At this point one of the older inmates shares an important advice with him:

"You have to pretend, who in this world doesn't pretend? You have to say that you're in a good mood, you have to say that you're not hungry, you have to say that you don't have a toothache, you have to say that you're not afraid, otherwise you can't do it, you can't do it. No doctor ever told me that hunger and poverty can lead to mental disorders, but those who don't eat become nervous, those who don't eat and see their family go without eating can go crazy, a discontentment can lead to madness, a death in the family, the abandonment of the great love. We even need to pretend to be insane when we're insane, pretend to be a poet when we're a poet."

It's a powerful speech about the farce of medicine's ownership over the subject of madness, the farce of reason and that it must subjugate or dominate madness. Pretending and acting out the platonic ideal behavior at all situations under all circumstances, as if it's normal, that's the only way anyone is seen as sane.

Bicho de Sete Cabeças (2000)

Another important date in brazillian history is the 13th of May 1888, the day of the passing of the law that abolished slavery, which also had Algol activated by the Sun. This was obviously not the definite end of slavery and not the end of the struggle of black brazilians, just like the Basaglia Law didn't mean mad liberation, but I'm just demonstrating how powerful Algol is to protect from evil and put an end to injustice in an official and legislative manner. Like Saint George defeating the dragon, Perseus defeats a monster that is impossible to defeat, the "impossible victory" and liberation is recurrent in the stories linked to it. Systemic opression and injustices a lot of times seem like impossible problems, it becomes harder and harder to imagine a world where they don't exist, but Algol events revolutionize the impossible.

"The important thing is that we have proven that the impossible becomes possible. Ten, fifteen, twenty years ago it was unthinkable that a mental hospital could be destroyed. Maybe mental hospitals will return to being closed and more closed than before, I don't know, but in any case we have demonstrated that the mad can be cared for in another way, and testimony is fundamental. I don't think that the fact that an action manages to energize itself means that it has been won. The important point is another, it is that now we know what can be done." (Franco Basaglia - Conferenze brasiliane)

An important honorable mention should be made to Carlos Marighella, a guerrilheiro in the resistance of the brazilian military dictatorship who was executed before he could see our democratization. He had Mars with Algol.

"The urban guerrilheiro is an implacable enemy of the government and inflicts systematic harm on authorities and men who dominate and exercise power. The main work of the urban guerrilheiro is to distract, tire and demoralize the military, the military dictatorship and repressive forces, and also attack and destroy the wealth of north americans, foreign managers, and the Brazilian upper class. But the fundamental and decisive characteristic of the urban guerrilheiro is that he is a man who fights with weapons; given this condition, there is little chance that he will be able to pursue his normal profession for a long time or the reference of the class struggle, since it is inevitable and necessarily expected, the armed conflict of urban guerrilla against the essential objectives: A. The physical extermination of the leaders and assistants of the armed forces and the police. B. The expropriation of government resources and those who belong to the big capitalists, landowners, and imperialists, with small expropriations used to maintain the individual urban guerrilheiro and large expropriations for the support of the same revolution. (Carlos Marighella - Manual do Guerrilheiro Urbano)

Algol in Cannes

Lunga in Bacurau (2019), the first queer Perseus I know. The actor Silvero Pereira has Venus on Algol.

I’ve said here before how much I love Bacurau. The movie premiered in Cannes, on May 15, 2019, at 10 pm**. This is a chart full of fixed stars, with the Sun with Algol in the 6th house. You'll find in the film the Algol classic of extreme injustice being overcome. But one curious thing is that the Cannes Film Festival always happens around the same time of year when the Sun is at the last degrees of Taurus and beginning of Gemini, making a lot of the movies premiered at Cannes have Algol activated. And it shows. It’s a great opportunity to watch how varied the Algol themes can be. On that same year of 2019, they had: THE DEAD DON’T DIE by JIM JARMUSCH, a pretty obvious Algol movie about zombies, whom you defeat by cutting off the head, of course; LES MISÉRABLES by LADJ LY, inspired by a real-life event of police violence that inspired the 2005 riots in Paris, it seems to have a very radicalized discourse about raging against violent injustices; ATLANTIQUE (ATLANTICS) by MATI DIOP has dead unpaid workers coming back as spirits possessing their city’s inhabitants to take vengeance on the tycoon who withheld their payment; LITTLE JOE by JESSICA HAUSNER is a film about a lab created flower that alters people's behavior in strange ways, and these last two kinda have the feeling of that "spring danger" Gavin White talks about. DOLOR Y GLORIA (PAIN AND GLORY) by PEDRO ALMODÓVAR has Antonio Banderas as the protagonist who develops dysphagia, caused by a caucified growth in his neck. Etc. And these are all just some of the 2019 films. I haven't watched most of them, but you can always look for the films which had their first screenings around 14-20 of May and they'll be rich in Algol content.

So, I'll leave you with that: a bunch of movie recommendations. Thank you for reading.

Late night pondering...

Titan had slept so hard for a majority of the day and it felt so good to be on something soft. When was the last time he lounged on something that comfortable?

Not since the room he once shared with Andromeda used to be theirs. Not since Atlas Titan came to the theater. He had stayed with them for a bit at Andromeda's request for the guy to be comfortable and have a place to rest. After he drifted out to find his own resting place, Titan could be comfortable staying in his own goddamn room.

But then he met Callisto...

This is where he got out of the bed he had been sharing with Malware and went to go walk around the playcare. He made sure to try and not disturb him, giving the dark colored magical animatronic more time to rest. Titan stared at him for a moment with a fond look before leaving to wander around.

Maybe if he walked around, he could process everything...

Callisto was different...she got him. She understood and listened to him more than Andromeda did. But. He couldn't blame her. Andromeda resented him for years' worth of bullshit he put her through. Still, it was nice to be seen. It was nice to start to experience what he was sure was love. And.

....Titan frowned as he found himself peeking into a random storage room if only to occupy himself--

He did love her. In fact, he's sure he still does. But he ruined that relationship by giving into his code and his old desires to have Andromeda to himself for one more night.

...............Titan paused as he stared at a worn out poster with a deep frown.

....It wasn't worth it.

It really wasn't. It wasn't worth breaking someone's trust. Every anonymous person who threw shade and hate his way made him want to shut off his emotional matrix and reset everything. He didn't want to feel the guilt for hurting Callisto. He didn't want to feel the pain of being unwanted and hated by the only person who had been there for him from the start. He didn't WANT to feel jealous over Blem. He didn't want to be seen as using Malware for pleasure to forget everything-- he actually cares about him.

He cares about him. Titan really cares. His stupid grin...the way his face lights up that beautiful yellow starlight... How he laughs with his whole body. Malware's kindness and generosity. Was Titan doing something wrong by being attracted to him? Was he really being seen as a terrible person?

How does he show that he actually cares?

....God, why won't they just let me rest...

Drawn my favourite nightsky (except sun) objects which I like observing with either naked eye or my humble telescope. We've got here the Sun, the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn and Mars. Big middle star and smallest dot and 8-armed stars are just for decoration, but biggest 4 armed stars are a collection of 8 constellations (placement of constellations and their distance from eachother is not accurate to their real-life position): Cygnus, Cassiopeia, Orion, Pleiades, Big Dipper, Dolphin, Corona Borealis and Andromeda (including the galaxy with same name). Below are pics of marked constellations.

Andromeda Shun, Shin Mouri & Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury: Shin Mouri a.k.a Cye of the Torrent is basically a boy which mistaken as a girl, such like Andromeda Shun, but his attacks are water-based like Sailor Mercury.

Their respective rivals in the respective series are: Pisces Aphrodite, Naaza/Sekhmet & Zoisite: Naaza a.k.a Sekhmet in Ronin Warriors is the main rival of Suikou no Shin, being associated with poison, such like Pisces Aphrodite and Zoisite, who both voiced by Keiichi Nanba.

I'm . . . ngl I have no idea what to do for the next chapter of Different Path Taken. I want to do Moon Nexus fluff and actually explore some of the time before Soren and Claudia catch up, but like . . . I want the next chapter to be pretty chill and wholesome, give the heavy stuff a break, but I got nothing. Currently the only plot bunnies I have running around are: a conversation between Callum and Lujanne and then Ram (about magic and dreams). Another one between Callum and Skor (what happened with Amaya). Another one between Ezran and Runaan (grief and the difference between losing each parent). Beyond that ???? until the magekids catch up, and then there's some Entertainment planned for their interactions with Soren and some Drama with Claudia.
