Alcyone
Descendant Conjunct Alcyone
Alcyone, brightest of the Pleiades, carries far sight and ambition shadowed by an old sorrow, and here it marks partnership and the people you meet. Bonds may run deep and visionary yet carry a note of grief, tears, or longing that asks to be felt rather than feared. Read Alcyone with the whole chart, since one star colors how you relate but does not dictate, and a hard star rewards conscious handling.
