Grass star - Kusaboshi
|
The Japanese name for the Pleiades. It is also called Ogusa-boshi, Mogusa-boshi, or Ookusa-boshi. The character kusagusa is used, but the meaning is unclear. It seems that the group of stars was named this way because the word kusagusa means "abundant things."

プレアデス星団の和名。おぐさ星，もぐさ星，おおくさ星ともいう。草星の字をあてるが，その意味は明らかではない。物の多い様子をくさぐさということから，星の集団をこう呼んだらしい。
