Talk:Canis Minor

message: It can be seen [at night] in [all but polar] Northern Hemisphere places from December to April. It is given in Norton's Star Atlas (1973 edition) as having culmination at 9pm on February 28. This is close enough to March for the original entry to remain unmodified. -- <SPAN STYLE="font-family:monospace; color:#006666; background-color:#ffffcc; border:1px solid #ffaaaa;"> B.d.mills </SPAN> (Talk) 11:18, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

message: (This section is linked from Procyon in Astrology)
Astrologically, Procyon portends wealth, fame, and good fortune. It is also one of fifteen Behenian stars, associated with agate and water crowfoot. According to Cornelius Agrippa, its kabbalistic symbol is .
: The star itself was once on the ecliptic of the zodiac in ancient times, just between of the constellations Gemini and Cancer, but I can't say for sure if the star and companion Beta Canis Minoris were forming a zodiac sign of its own. Sirius and Canopus form a singular up-down (north-south) line, but whenever the sun or moon crosses the northern edge of Canis Minor or close to Procyon, many astrologers consider the near-transit (about 3 to 5 degrees above Procyon) as a time of financial prosperity for the world. 71.102.3.122 (talk) 02:17, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

message: I removed a sentence ("Andromeda was one of the original 48 constellations formulated by Ptolemy in his 2nd-century Almagest, in which it was defined as a specific pattern of stars. However, Ptolemy only identified two stars and hence no depiction was possible.") from the article as I was not sure if it was a simple mistaken name or if the sentence was truly meant to refer to Andromeda. Can someone check the original source and see if this is meant to be about Canis Minor or Andromeda? --Khajidha (talk) 17:54, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

message: Leaving notification here that with this edit I copied across the referenced paragraph that is present here on the Canis-Minorids to the main article (which was a one-line stub). Still a stub, but a bit better now. I believe the edit summary I used there is sufficient to ensure backwards attribution of the authorship of that text, but if those here who wrote that text want to go over to that article and edit it and note their contribution there and maybe even help expand that article, that would be great. Many thanks for doing such great work on this constellation article. Carcharoth (talk) 23:41, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

message: The article lead cites NGC 2359 as a Canis Minor object, however the page NGC 2359 positions it in Canis Major, and so do this and this source. Can it be clarified? --Cyclopiatalk 15:50, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Damn - meant to take that out of the lead as we'd figured that out a while ago. Removed now/well spotted. Casliber (talk · contribs) 19:55, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
