THE PLANETS Sun - Moon - Luminaries Mercury Venus Earth Mars Ceres - Dwarf Planet Juno, Pallas Athena, Vesta - Asteroids Jupiter Saturn Chiron - Centaur Uranus Neptune Pluto - Dwarf planet 3
Planets Planets - Wanderers Astronomical - stellar remnants, body orbiting a star Planets travel in the band of the zodiac, the ecliptic(mostly) not all over the sky, bound by the ecliptic 23 degrees North and South of the ecliptic by declination Bound by gravity in the solar system, in their own elliptical orbits 4
Archetype! The concept of an archetype /ˈɑrkɪtaɪp/ is found in areas relating to behavior, modern psychological theory, and literary analysis.! An archetype can be:! A statement, pattern of behaviour, or prototype which other statements, patterns of behaviour, and objects copy or emulate;!
