Lyra (lat. Lyra) is a small constellation in the northern hemisphere of the sky, located between Hercules and Cygnus.
The constellation Lyra is not large, but it is easily identified by the star Vega.
Vega is the brightest star in the constellation and can be easily identified in this image.
The Arabic name of Vega is the falling eagle.
This star is often mentioned in various scientific and poetic texts.
There is also information that it was called the falling vulture.
Vega is the first star after the Sun to be photographed.

Let's remember the character of Greek myths, named Orpheus, whose songs made even the Furies cry, and Hades himself with Persephone.

Orpheus played the lyre.
Like Apollo, who is sometimes called his father.
That is why his father is the river god Eagre (there are often several versions in myths), and if it wasn't, Apollo treated Orpheus with kindness...
And it was Orpheus who was the first of the people to whom Apollo gave Lyra...
So these two characters are combined with the constellation of Lyra.
When I look at this myth and the symbolism associated with Lyra and the Arabic translation of the name of its main star.
One picture clearly emerges in my mind.
But before voicing my opinion, I need to introduce you to the myth of Orpheus, and write about the symbolism of this musical instrument...

One thing that always intrigued me was the origin of the name of the constellations, since you have to be very tolerant to believe that there is a similar shape.
Of course I respect the story, but I believe someone drank mushroom tea!
