I actually finished these a while ago but forgot to upload them, so now is as good a time as any I suppose! Ursa Minor appears most prominently in the beginning of Starglass Zodiac as one of the first spirit encounters on Earth, and the need to return him home becomes more desperate for Ursa Major as she grows more restless without her baby.

Despite how iconic these constellations and their nicknames are, it posed some interesting challenges to try and combine bears with uh… ladles? xD It didn’t feel right to include one but not the other, so I think I found a decent compromise here. I’m not sure if the concept reads as well on Ursa Minor compared to Major, but I’m happy with the direction so far at least.

The constellation symbols for Ursa Major and Ursa Minor were originally designed by Denis Moskowitz and Alec Finlay and released to the public domain. https://www.suberic.net/~dmm/astro/constellations_t.html
