Orbital resonance:
4:7 with Vesta (99.9%)
11:16 with Juno (99.9%)

Greek mythology

At first, the name chosen to call this asteroid was "Maximiliana" in honor to the King Maximilian II of Bavaria. But at that time, by convention, asteroids received classical mythological names and many astronomers protested.

In a hunting day, in which it began to rain, Atalanta and Hippomenes took refuge in a temple of Cybele and made love there, enraging the goddess for doing so in a sacred place. Cybele transformed them in male lions and sentenced them to look each at a diferent side so that they never would be able to see each other again. 

(65) Cybele is related with the beliefs and structures of thought that determine the philosophy and personal way of seeing things.

It has an orbital period of 3 years and 175 days. It has an inclination of 8.7º. It has a diameter of about 80 km. There are important observations between the years 1980 and 1985.

Orbital resonance:

• 3:17 with Venus (99.8%)
• 17:5 with Jupiter (99.7%)
• 7:13 with Mars (99.6%)

• 5:4 with Juno (99.7%)
• 11:7 with Europa (99.6%)

Greek Poetry

Sappho was a Greek poet that lived during the 7th and 6th centuries BC in the island of Lesbos and wrote a wide range of poems about love.

(80) Sappho enjoys very much the company of the other person and, although the main interest of (80) Sappho is not the sexual relationship, so that the phase prior to it extends more than normal, there is a clear passion that manifests itself through an assertive attitude toward the relationship. Also, he/she makes jokes and symbolic allusions to the sexual contact.

(80) Sappho is related to the stage of the relationship immediately preceding the first kiss, which is characterized by very common visits and encounters: more time is spended with the person that is special. There is spontaneous good humor and details of earlier conversations are remembered; he/she always looks directly in the face when he/she speaks, aligning the chin; it maintains a closer distance, from which the casual grazes are more frequent; sits and places in positions slightly open and shows a total confidence during physical proximity.

"War Games" (1983)

(80) Sappho creates a solid commitment, that is increasingly strengthening, as the relationship moves from one stage to the next (resonance 5:4 with Juno).

Ally Sheedy, actress of the movies "War Games" (1983) and "Short Circuit" (1986), has Sappho in Pisces (5th Moon-Node House) in opposition to the Black Moon in Virgo (11th Moon-Node House), and in square with the Sun in Gemini (2nd Moon-Node House).

[Hailee Steinfeld, actress of the movie "The Edge of Seventeen" (2016), has Sappho in Capricorn (10th Moon-Node House) in the Crossing Point of Age Progressions (Signs Horoscope / Moon-Node Horoscope), and in semisextile with Uranus in Aquarius (9th Moon-Node House).]

(45) Eugenia is a main belt asteroid discovered in June of 1857. It was spotted without being identified in January of 1941.

The orbit is located at the middle of the main belt. It has a perihelion of 2.49 AU and an aphelion of 2.94 AU. The semimajor axis is at 2.72 AU. It has an orbital period of 4 years and 178 days. It has an inclination of  6.6º. 

Orbital resonance:
2:9 with Earth-Moon (99.7%)
-
13:9 with Sylvia (99.9%)
5:4 with Euphrosyne (99.9%)
17:12 with Cybele (99.8%)
10:9 with Psyche (99.8%)
5:4 with Davida (99.7%)


Historical character

(45) Eugenia was the second asteroid to be named after a real person, instead of one of the classical mythology (the first was (12) Victoria, which received the name of the Queen of the United Kingdom).

The Empress Eugenia de Montijo (1826-1920) was born in Granada (Spain), but at the age of 9 years she was sent to France to study at the Convent of the Sacred Heart. At the age of 23 years she met Napoleon III, with whom she married four years later.

(45) Eugenia is related with the displacement to the source of nourish, like migratory birds in nature.

However, those who had to comply the terrible order is backed down and abandoned on the banks of the river Tiber, where a wolf that had gone out to drink, nursed them. Later, they were found by a shepherd, who took care of them.

"What Maisie Knew" (2012)

(87) Sylvia is related with adoptive relationships, like in the movies "Mostly Marta" (2001), "Rails & Ties" (2007), "What Maisie Knew?" (2012), "Welcome Aboard (Bienvenue parmi nous)" (2012), "Safe Heaven" (2013), "Red Corner" (1997), "I Robot" (2004) and the video game "The Last of Us" (PS3, 2013).

(3362) Khufu, developing the appropriate strategies or techniques to fight opponents who seemed invulnerable

(3362) Khufu is an aten asteroid discovered in August of 1984.
 
Its orbit is located between Mercury and Mars; forms an orbital piercing from Mercury to Venus. It has a perihelion of 0.52 AU and an aphelion of 1.45 AU. The semimajor axis is at 0.98 AU. It has an orbital period of 359 days. It has an inclination of 9.9º (quartinovile@10º, 0º05' orb).

Orbital resonance:
5:8 with Venus (%100.0)
21:11 with Mars (99.9)
-
17:3 with Hygiea (99.9)
14:3 with Ceres (99.7)

Egyptian mythology

Named for the Egyptian god-king Khufu, better known by his Greek name of Cheops, a pharoah of the 29th century B.C. and builder of the largest of the great pyramids at Giza, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.

The discovery of the asteroid Khufu coincided with the popularization of martial arts films, like "Karate Kid" (1984), in which the protagonist first lost against the bad guy, but then developed a special technique, with which he finally managed to beat him.

"Ghouls 'n Ghosts" (Capcom, 1988)

It also coincided with the popularization of video games, like "Kung Fu Master" (1984), in which at the end of each phase or at the end of the game itself, a particularly difficult boss or monster awaited, which, however, due to it was a character controlled by the computer and limited to its artificial intelligence, sooner or later, one became familiar with its movements and ended up discovering its weak points and the way to beat him.

Similarly, the asteroid Khufu is related with the ability to develop appropriate strategies or techniques to fight opponents --who initially may  seem invulnerable-- by closely observing their movements.

"Karate Kid" (2010)

Jackie Chan, actor of the movie "Karate Kid" (2010), has Khufu in Aries (10th Moon-Node House) in opposition to the Black Moon; and in binovile with the Lunar Node in Capricorn (1st Moon-Node House, cusp).

(3753) Cruithne, intelligent and powerful phrase

(3753) Cruithne is an aten asteroid in 1:1 resonance with the Earth discovered in October of 1983 and rediscovered in October of 1986 [1983 UH=1986 TO]. There are prediscovery images back to November of 1979, October of 1975 and October of 1973. The dinamics of the orbit was understood in the year 1997, it is between Mercury and Mars, but constantly modified by the gravity of the Earth (co-orbital asteroid). It has a perihelion of 0.48 AU and an aphelion of 1.51 AU. It has an inclination of 19.8º.

Named for the most common term used by the Irish for the Picts--one of the ancient peoples of Scotland. 'Cruithne' was the eponymous ancestor of the Picts, and it was his seven sons who gave their names to the seven divisions of the Pictish Kingdom. 

The word Picts comes from 'picti' in latin meaning 'the painted' or 'the tattooed'; the world could also come from 'peihta' in celtic, previous popular etymology, meaning 'fighter'.

With (3753) Cruithne, body language acquires great importance. First, through the distance and relative position of the body during the communication; and second, through the physical appearance, which includes the body (tattoos, hair and beard), clothing (corporate or official uniform, for example) and equipment (tools or weapons).

(3753) Cruithne represents the powerful and intelligent phrase, full of will, that inclines the balance of a discussion towards victory, like Luck at the end of the movie "Star Wars. Episode VI - The Return of the Jedi" (1983).
