does not represent the actual representation <strong>of</strong> the star configurations in the sky<br />

but should be interpreted symbolically. Notice that the bull as Taurus is shaped in<br />

the form <strong>of</strong> the leg itself! Taweret is present to assist with the birth <strong>of</strong> the Sun.<br />

Leg <strong>of</strong> the Bull, Dendera and Senmut tomb. Notice that while the horns <strong>of</strong><br />

Taurus correspond with the mural <strong>of</strong> Senmut, the Milky Way resides to the<br />

left and not to the right as is depicted in the mural.<br />

The reason why the mural <strong>of</strong> the Senmut tomb does not correspond with the<br />

situation in the sky is that the graphical representation was meant to symbolically<br />

depict the Galactic Alignment. The Sun and Milky Way actually should have<br />

appeared left <strong>of</strong> Orion, but it would have destroyed the simplicity and symbolism<br />

<strong>of</strong> the Leg <strong>of</strong> the Bull theme in the mural.<br />
