The Force is Strong With This One
I would like to know the symbolism behind the Myth of Cassiopaea. Henceforth, I will use only the word Cassiopeia (in Spanish) because it is easier to write.
Please take the liberty of correcting everything I write.
Unfortunately, my sources are internet only. I made a search on this site about this myth and found nothing.
Here are summaries of what I found online:
Cassiopeia was the daughter of "super ancient god" Nereus sea, one of the 50 Nereids, according to sources. He married Cepheus (or Cepheo), king of the Ethiopians.
Nobody knows what it means Cassiopeia.
Cepheus and Cassiopeia had a daughter called Andromeda which means "ruler of men".
Cassiopeia was punished for believing the most beautiful of the Nereids, critics say. Other sources say that the Nereids were offended because Cassiopeia said that she and her daughter Andromeda were more beautiful than the Nereids.
Then the gods Spoilers (won the war against the Titans) to send a great flood to the land and sea monster, Cetus, to destroy the land of the Ethiopians and as punishment for Cassiopeia.
Wizards of Amon advised the Ethiopian Kings give sacrifice Andromeda to the monster Ceto to save the Earth.
However, Andromeda was rescued by Perseus who killed the monster Ceto. Perseus meant "destroyer". Perseus married Andromeda, their "savior".
The Olympian gods had made gifts usurpers Perseus, a demigod son of the king of the gods, Zeus, to deal with the Gorgon, half woman half snake monster that made everything looked in stone. The gifts were: a magic sword to kill powerful enemies, a helmet of invisibility, winged sandals to fly and a shield.
Cassiopeia did not want to marry Perseus Andromeda but with his brother Agenor (or Phineas, according to other sources).
The gods "away" Cassiopeia men making it a circumpolar constellation that never sets on the horizon, always skirting condemning it to the North Pole, 50% of the time is 50% head up and head down (supposedly to his humiliation) . In the first pictorial, Cassiopeia has a palm in his hand and stands. In later representations, is tied to a chair and has a mirror in his hand, a symbol of her vanity as his detractors.
. -------------------
I suspect we know who these "critics" of the 4D. History proves: it is always written by the victors.
Nereus was the "real" god of the sea, long before the Olympians and the Titans. Poseidon simply was "drawn" and he had to be god of the sea after the war where new gods, the Olympians, won the war against the Titans, sons of the "super old gods" primordial. Among the latter was Nereo. Therefore Cassiopeia was truly a goddess descended from ancient gods.
The control system of the lizards, seeing that Cassiopeia was very "beautiful" or "desirable" for men, invented that she was very "vain" and was punished by Zeus, king of the Olympian gods.
His punishment is "remarkable" for its symbolism. Cassiopeia was not death but directly was "transformed" into a constellation. It was away from the presence of men in the sky, but always in sight, never hides.
The fact that it is always bordering the North Pole, half the time up and half down once, I suspect that Cassiopeia can see all the faces of God, or Yin and Yang. And always at the sight of men in any season, ie representing Kansas "at sight" or "whenever we want".
One of its stars indicates the "north" to continue for some sailors, when the North Star is not visible. This can also be very suggestive.
Distrusted Cassiopeia Perseus, the destroyer, demigod son of one of the new gods usurpers. She prefers another candidate for his daughter.
Perseus appears on the scene and with all the gifts of the Olympians: The ability to not be seen by men (4D), the ability to fly (hyper dimensional?), The ability to overcome powerful enemies by the sword and cunning, the ability to turn men into stone (hypnosis? dimensional constraint?).
But Andromeda, the ruler of men, married Perseus, the son of the new gods and took with him seven children. And good. I think this represents that went for the pot of gold, or we have in hand, the mind or the blood of the "destroyer"
The rest, as they say, is history.
