Procyon: Decan 8 - Loyalty & Courage (May 29 - June 7)
The photons entering your eyes right now left Procyon in 2014. At 11.46 light-years, this is not ancient light. It is recent, intimate, close enough to touch. The star that rises before Sirius, the star that orbits its dead companion every 40.8 years, teaches loyalty and courage in their most structural forms: going first, staying faithful, carrying a bright light in a sparse constellation.
