Cor Caroli
Star words: loyalty, kingly heart
Canes Venatici · α2 CVn · mag 2.89 — Culminates around midnight
The blue daisy takes April 5. Its season in the calendar is wider than most — March to May — though the peak is April and May. Hanakotoba are good luck and blessed day, about as cheerful as this month gets. The birthday color is Aofujiiro (#84A2D4), a soft blue whose color word is "an anchor": presence that holds a boat steady on a windy day. Luck, and something to keep it in place.
Cor Caroli means Charles's Heart, a Latin name offered to a king at England's seventeenth-century Restoration — and it stuck. This 2.89-magnitude star glows at a Hunting Dog's neck, and on April 5 it is your birth star. Its star words are loyalty and kingly heart. At midnight it beats quietly at the height of the southern sky. The day's color is Aofujiiro (#84A2D4), blue wisteria, read as an anchor. A loyal heart beside an anchor blue: one fixed point makes walking easier.
