Vespa Symbolism[edit]

Vespa also has other connotations that incorporate all of its definitions. The italian motoscooter, the constellation, and its latin name which refers to a wasp; all relate to a modern term which is simply Vespa. A Vespa is a mythical creature that only makes its presents to children who are ready to make desicions, the instant in time which chalenges make and create the young adult. The Vespa is said to leave a mark. In modern terms this could be concluded to be a "hickey" or other some other form of adolescent foolery. The mark is said to never leave the body if the the victim is impure in thoughts. Obvioulsly the chalenge would be in decideing whether a child is pure of mind. Though this is a confusing chalenge because in its efforts to sort the "good" or "evil" from a child would be senseless, the fact that some "pervertness" is present in a child would simply show that they have been exposed to the "evil" in this world and grant that presence to adulthood. Although actions would be deciding factors in the entire chalenge not thoughts. However, these are just opinions of the actions of a mythical creature. A Vespa establishes all definentions because the form of travel, a vespa motorscooter, makes invasion into childrens life easier as it represents the "coolness" that can be easily accepted as well as the fact that change in life is fast and unpredictable; the latin word meaning wasp refers to the mark left by the Vespa; and the constellation refers to the instinct driven into every human soul and reveals itself in the chalenge during a childs life, a revelation that children can reach for the stars and that all that must be done is to arch to the heavens and to make a full swing and aim for the stars. In conclusion, Vespa is a mythical creature that is sometimes used to express the coming of age in children.

Anachronistic reasoning, unless we can prove that this was the reasoning when Bartcsh introduced the constellation around 1624. Documentation and external sources needed for usage of this. Rursus declamavi; 23:46, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

There are too many next-to-infinitesimal stubs about obsolete constellations, Vespa being the origin to Musca Borealis obviously. I object against renaming a constellation requires the need of a separate article – I propose mergers, whenever an asterism or a sky area is renamed rather than changed considerably.

Makes sense to me.—RJH (talk) 21:56, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have marked the articles with the {{Merge}} template. - Soulkeeper (talk) 17:34, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I just merged the articles. Now Vespa (constellation) redirects to Musca Borealis. Thimbleguy (talk) (contribs) 18:33, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
