4 of Clubs – Crater

The sun begins its journey through Leo, from July 23^rd through August 3^rd, in the constellation Crater. From the classical ages on-ward the Crater is most often depicted as the cup of one God or another and even the holy grail. Prior to that the Greeks and their forerunners perceived Crater to be a funerary urn. A pot of hot coals and ash that signified a death and loss often correlated with trials by fire. As the sun moves through the Crater it enters the hottest time of the year and equally one of the darkest portions of the sky. Here in the Crater even the great ship Argo may be lost in the deepest depths of the night.
