June 1 belongs to Marfik (λ Ophiuchi), a steady magnitude 3.82 light in the Serpent Bearer. Its Arabic name means 'the elbow' — the bent arm of Asclepius as he masters the serpent — and the calendar gives it the star words technique and fulcrum. Around midnight it climbs to its highest point in the southern sky. Beside it sits the day's color, Pale Crocus (#BEA2CA), whose color word is scented memory: a star for skill, a color for what the heart keeps.
The birthday fish of June 1 is the Gizzard shad (kohada). Its silver scales shine through the rainy season, and it is prized as a summer sushi topping. Fish words: 'silver scale' and 'summer sushi'.
