North America mythology

Pawnee was an indigenous tribe from the center of North America that lived in the middle basin of the river Platte, in the current Nebraska and Kansas.

The celestial vault represented the supreme divinity, in particular the Morning and Night Stars. The tribe witnessed shocking human sacrifices of captured women. They dressed and got ready for rip off the heart with a knife, to then leave the body in the plains. The rite was abolished in 1816, when Petalesharo, leader of the tribe, saved a young comanche who was about to be sacrificed.

Atira was the goddess of Earth and Star of the Morning. She was the woman of Tirawa, the creator God. Her earthly manifestation was the corn, which symbolized the life that provided the Mother Earth.

"Phone Booth" (2002)

(163693) Atira combines the sensory perceptions (Earth-Moon system) with the ability to analyse (Mercury). It is related with the observation and analysis of the physiological and behavioral reactions of another person by a group, like in the movies "The Recruit" (2003) and "Phone Booth" (2002).

67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, personal ideals and values in the handling of objects

67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is a short period comet discovered in September of 1969. It has a perihelion of 1.21 AU and an aphelion of 5.70 AU. The semimajor axis is at 3.45 AU. It has an orbital period of 6 years and 153 days. It has an orbital incination of 3.8º.

In February 1959, a close encounter with Jupiter moved its perihelion inward (close to the Earth-Moon system), where it remains today.

67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is the destination of the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission, launched on 2 March 2004. The Rosetta spacecraft rendezvoused with the comet on 6 August 2014 and entered orbit on 10 September 2014. Rosetta's lander, Philae, is scheduled to land on the comet's surface on 11 November 2014.

"The Diary of Anne Frank" (1959)

67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is related with the self-confidence that arises before starting the physical contact, when the fulfilment of the task is in complete accordance with the personal ideals and values.

"Sleeping Beauty" (1959)

Self-efficacy in the handling of objects

"
The theory suggested by Albert Bandura (1987) proposes that the perception that has a person about her domain on the task will determine her expectations of success, and also its persistence in the implementation and the amount of effort invested in carrying out the task. Self-efficacy is based on different cognitive factors such as the history of the reinforcements, the previous evaluations and information on appropriate strategies. According to this, when students show doubts about their ability, they tend to avoid participating in that task, spend less efforts and do not persist in the face of difficulties, all this causes a lower performance than those students who feel able to cope. But self-efficacy is not the only belief that influences the behavior, the expectations about the results also have an effect on it." (UNED, 2009; "Psicología de la motivación")

(2) Pallas, practical intelligence pointed to the success of projects


What it is outstanding about (2) Pallas, is practical intelligence pointed to the success of projects through knowledge about reality and the present, practical experience, intuition on the feasibility of projects and a clever use of the resources and the time available without giving up quality (18:7 resonance with Jupiter), like in the movie "Michael Clayton" (2007) or "The Kingdom" (2007), wich is an example of assistence in interrogating the witness, searching for evidence and reaching agreements.

"The Kingdom" (2007) 

The contribution of (2) Pallas is always greatly appreciated in the company for which it works; by the Community, if it works in an NGO or forms part of a political party or a community association (1:1 resonance with Ceres)


Jamie Foxx, actor of the movie "The Kingdom" (2007), has Pallas in Virgo, in the 8th cusp of the Moon-Node Horoscope. Pallas is surrounded by Uranus and Pluto, in square with the Sun in Sagittrius, in the 5th house of the Moon-Node Horoscope.

George Clooney, actor of the movie "Michael Clayton" (2007), has Pallas in Pisces squaring the Crossing Axis of Age Progressions (Signs Horoscope and Moon-Node Horoscope) in Gemini/Sagitarius.

(511) Davida, fascination and admiration for the personality of someone

(511) Davida is a main belt asteroid discovered in May of 1903.

It has a perihelion of 2.57 AU and an aphelion of 3.76 AU. The semimajor axis is at 3.16 AU. It has an orbital period of 5 years and 233 days. It has an inclination of  15.9º.


Orbital resonance:
1:3 with Mars (99.9%)


"One Day"(2011)

(511) Davida was named in honor of David Peck Todd, notable astronomer who produced a complete set of photographs of the 1882 astronomical transit of Venus (Sun-Venus conjunction with the Venusian Node).


The discovery of (511) Davida clashed with the emergence of the color in the portrait photography.


Unlike Neptune, which has interest in the divine part of another person (his/her Soul), (511) Davida feels fascination and admiration toward the personality: his/her physical body and his/her emotional and mental nature.
