The name Pleiades (play-at-eez) is the name the Greeks gave to a cluster of seven stars that are more prominent at the springs solstice. Cultures all over the world, ancient and modern, looked to the heavens as winter waned, waiting for the Pleiades star cluster to usher in a new season of growth, regeneration and revitalization.
