Do you see that cluster of seven bluish stars in the upper right? They are the Pleiades, also called the “Seven Sisters.” The Pleiades were known by many ancient civilizations. They look blue, because they are hot blue stars. They look luminous because they are passing through a dust cloud.

The Pleiades are in the constellation Taurus. I identify Taurus by that group of stars that looks like a “V” just above the words, “It is,” in the quote. In my mind, that “V” looks like the face of the bull.

Do you see that in the place where the bull’s eye would be on the left there are two stars together? Those are the double stars of Theta Tauri, visible to the naked eye. Some people think a better star for the bull’s eye would be Aldebaran, the orange-hued star above the double stars. I like how Aldebaran sounds.

I took this photograph in 2010 during the “Winter Star Party” in the Florida Keys, where I interviewed amateur astronomers for the End of the World 2012 Movie, Book, and EBook. At that time, I also photographed the galactic center that appears in the movie, book, and ebook.

I chose this hope inspirational quote, because we need to hold onto hope right now, especially with the amount of fear some people are feeling, because of sensational, inaccurate reports and videos about the 2012 Mayan prophecy.
