The above image has two heavenly objects that are coalesced with the sun. It is the planet of Mars and the moon
seen in the Constellation of Cancer. Let us next take a look at the Constellation of Cancer which represents a
crab or a snapping turtle in Babylonian times. Cancer is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac. Its name is
Latin for crab and it is commonly represented by the symbol. Cancer is considered the “Dark Sign.”

Constellation of Cancer:

The modern symbol for Cancer represents the pincers of a
crab, but Cancer has been represented as various types of
creatures, usually those living in the water, and always those
with an exoskeleton.

In Babylonia the constellation had a name which can refer to
both a crab and a snapping turtle. On boundary stones, the
image of a turtle or tortoise appears quite regularly.

There also appears to be a strong connection between the
Babylonian constellation and ideas of death and a passage to
the underworld.

among them brightened, So that, if Cancer one such crystal had, winter would have a month of one sole day.
