Alpheratz: Decan 26 - Liberation & Empathy (November 25-December 4)
Alpheratz is the only star in two constellations simultaneously — Delta Pegasi and Alpha Andromedae, a dual citizenship formalized in 1930. 97 light-years, photons from 1928, chemically peculiar with abnormal mercury and manganese. November 25-December 4: liberation, dual identity, and the discernment between chains and roles.
Enif: Decan 25 - Aspiration & Vision (November 15-24)
The photons arriving from Enif tonight left the orange supergiant in 1335 — Ibn Battuta was in the midst of his great journey, the Black Death twelve years away. Expanded to 185 times the Sun's radius, Enif marks the nose of Pegasus: the forward-sensing point. November 15-24.
Markab: Decan 24 - Foundation & Legacy (November 5-14)
The photons arriving from Markab tonight left the cornerstone of Pegasus in 1892 — the year Ellis Island opened and the foundations of modern America were being laid. 133 light-years, spinning at 125 km/s and holding structure. November 5-14: build systems that outlast their builders.
Scheat: Decan 23 - Innovation & Risk (October 26-November 4)
The photons arriving from Scheat tonight left a dying red giant in 1829 — the early Industrial Revolution, before photography, before the telegraph. 196 light-years, pulsing between magnitude 2.31 and 2.74 on a 43-day cycle, shedding mass through stellar winds. October 26-November 4: innovation and risk at the edge.
