the meaning of the name Aldebaran healing
Aldebaran refers to the fixed star Aldebaran - the brightest star in the constellation of Taurus. Aldebaran comes from the Arabic name, Al Dabarān, and translates as ‘the follower’ of Pleiades - Matariki. One of the Māori names for Aldebaran is Whetū-kura. This image of the night sky shows the blue Matariki - Pleiades in the top left corner, and the bright golden Whetū-kura - Aldebaran. Many cultures around the world were traditionally deeply in touch with the cosmos, and the stars were connected to life on earth in many ways, e.g. navigation, hunting and gathering, agriculture, art, storytelling, divination, healing, prayer, fate and destiny … The name Aldebaran Healing was chosen in remembrance to the heavens from which humanity seeks guidance, inspiration and healing.
