Pleiades, seven luminous blue tinted stars that can be viewed in the Northern Hemisphere during the winter months. The Greeks called them the Seven Sisters. I plan to wait for a clear night and take the dog for a midnight walk and look at them, but I keep falling asleep.
American Indians tested the keeness of their vision trying to see all seven. I doubt my short sighted eyes will see them all, but perhaps I will be lucky.

I always vow to go out and see them--but remember how cold it is and decide against it. Falling asleep is also a problem...I am blaming it on age.
