Scorpius

Antares anchors it

Scorpius is a constellation in the southern sky, one of the zodiac constellations lying along the ecliptic.

Its brightest star, Antares, marks the scorpion's heart.

In astrology, Scorpius corresponds to the sign Scorpio, though the two have drifted apart due to precession: The moon was in Scorpius last night.
