Constellation Witch - Lemizh grammar and dictionary

Constellation Witch (trèw.)

The Witch is the constellation we call Virgo, the virgin. She is depicted as driving in a sledge in a southeasterly direction. The star μ Virginis is the tip of her whip.

Legend has it that she commissioned the craftsman (the Mechanic) to make her a crown and a Trumpet, and that she later quarreled with the Lion and was killed by him.

The 118 naked-eye stars

In the ‘Our designation’ column, letters (sometimes with superscript numbers) in front of constellation symbols refer to Bayer’s catalogue or to variable star designations, and numbers to Flamsteed’s catalogue. Row colours roughly approximate the stars’ colours. The links lead to the stars’ entries in the SIMBAD Astronomical Database.
