Through bound, they are freed, by their King!

The first of the three companion constellations of Pisces is the band which ties the two fish together. The Arabic name is Al Risha which means the band or the bridle. The Egyptian name U-or means He comes. This coming one speaks of his relationship to the fish, He is the coming redeemer of the fish. The band not only holds the fish but is tied to the sea monster Cetus.

Our next companion constellation is Andromeda the woman chained, but the deliverer is near, He is Cepheus, the Crowned King and Redeemer the coming one who breaks the chains and all things that bind the oppressed. The ancient Egyptian Zodiac of Andromeda is Set which means set, or set up as a queen. In Hebrew her name is Sirra which is the chained.

The brightest star in Andromeda is Al Phiratz which means the broken down. The Beta star is Mirach which means the weak. The third brightest star is Al Maach or Al Amak which means struck down. These stars all describe the future bride of Christ, the broken down, the weak, the struck down. Isaiah prophecied about this woman who is the bride of our Lord. "The Lord is your husband... Oh thou afflicted, tossed in tempest... In righteousness you shall be established" (Isaiah 54).

Our last companion constellation of Pisces is Cepheus who is the Crowned King, the broken's redeemer. The Egyptian Zodiac gives us the name Pe-ku-hor which means the one coming to rule. The Greek name Cepheus is from the Hebrew and it means branch but is also called the king. The three brightest stars tell us all we need to know about Cepheus; first the alpha star Al Deramin means coming quickly. The second brightest star Al Phirk means the Redeemer and the third brightest star is Al Rai which means who bruises or breaks. This is our King of Kings and Lord of Lords!

I find it facinating that two of the largest stars we have found are in this constellation they are Mu Cephei and W Cephei. They are very similar in size both are capible of hold our solar system from Saturn into the Sun within them. These stars are so huge for light to travel around their equator would take 8 hours traveling at 186,000 miles per second. Light can travel around the earth 7 times in one second at 186,000 miles per second. We are talking some huge stars and they are found in the King Constellation Cepheus, that's just cool!
