Ophiuchus1
The orignal name was eaiser to pronounce but there were some issue with that one and poor associations in the past we'd rather not see happen again,
some thought it was too foreboding and a sign of things to come, a reckoning from the stars, a portent and harbinger, this celestial object doesn't
seem to be manevolent in it's behavior if these reports are to be taken at face value.
It has the potential to be, but seems to act with a sense of serene peace, and a "just checking up on you, behave yourselves."
I understand the reasoning behind, but I still maintain for those of us with learning disabilities when it comes to certain aspects of certain written
languages, being able to use the original shorthand name without fear of negative connotations and associations would be nice.
It's not a declaration of alligence to any negative things based on the exposure I've had on the subject, except for that one period of history where
things got really, really dark, an stories that were orginally beautiful got twisted to horrible and abusive ends.
On a side note And I really wish the site would stop changing "the" to teh when I type.
This isn't funny and I'm not here for the lulz.
I take my studies seriously, this is just a new school for me and while I aprreciate the attempts to make me feel at home and in good company, I'm a
bit particular about proper grammar and honest communication.
Sit up straight, eyes on your own paper, and write what YOU know on the issue.
Don't try to influence me or bring me down to your level.
I'm not laughing about this and am completely serious right now.
