[SPEC]-pattern b/w starimage/onyx/hidden equation

so i started researchin onyx and on wikipedia it made mention of onyx also being known as Virgo under the Astrological relations area
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onyx
Quote:
The onyx is the stone for the zodiac sign, Virgo


using the astrology clue i searched for virgo constellations and found it, which looks quite like some of our star images (particularly the hexagon on the right side of the constellation looked familiar heres the image:

a lil further research found out that there is a star in the Virgo constellation known as "PSI" Virginis

so keep the ball rollin if u think i might have something here

also a google cached search of Virgo 108 brings up Hawaiian astronomical society, if u scroll down to the only mention of 108 it brings you to Southern Virgo Galaxies star NGC4699 which it says is located 1.6 degrees north-west of Psi Virginis (pretty damn close) so u can use that approximate location to locate Psi Virginis on zoomed in view of the star map on the website, with that we should be able to match up the maps, using Psi Virginis as the star in the center of the glyph....if u ask me, its too close to be coincidental that a search for 108 and virgo also made mention of Psi Virginis

wow

this is VERY interesting, any correlation to a specific point on the earth (continental US) that has any connection with this star, maybe where said specific skylight would be seen

I agree. We should look into this a bit more.

Ive tried to overlay the picture and it doesnt add up there is no way that it is trying to connect that virgo is in that picture....But it is wierd that psi comes up in the equation so something might happen with it later...

thanks for checking dariagan1, although i do wanna ask as to the method of your overlay? for instance if ur talkin u just dropped the map onto the image it most likely wouldnt work b/c i doubt that our image wuz created specifically from that map, i would suggest attempting to plot out virgo using the stars in our star image (while remembering we most likely still have two more images to overlay into it, so some stars could still be missing making an incomplete Virgo constellation)
