A question that is never considered is why has this constellation contributed so much to psychology and religion? Some called it the big bear (Ursa Major). Notice how the pattern of stars forms a figure of a swirl. Like a clockwise vortex. This pattern has been observed in garments from pre-christian Estonia. That would be before 1227 AD. In group theory the position of the North Star behaves as a center-of-symmetry. The position of the winter constellation is related the the position of the summer constellation by an inversion. The constellation is referred to as chariot, pulled by horses. This is the frequent motif in esoteric texts to refer to the mind. The text Zechariah 6:1-8 contains references to 4 chariots. There is a reference to our thinking as a chariot in the Bhagavad Gita. The description is the following: The Chariot = The Body (Sarira), The Passenger = The Soul (Jivi), The Driver = The Self (Atma), The Horses (the five senses, Indriyas), The Reins on the horses represent the Mind (Manas). This chariot is driven along a road. The road contains the objects of the senses. To achieve control all the actors must be involved. When asleep the chariot is on autopilot. Much is left out of consideration. Who drives the chariot when we are born? Why do we struggle to gain control of the chariot in our teens and early adult life? When we awake spiritually we find ourselves inside a chariot. Then the series of shocks begin. They occur seven in number. That is why when we set upon a plan we can end up where we started. Again we have to control the chariot and not let the road or the horses be the guide. Chapter 3:42, of the Bhagavad Gita, outlines the order of importance of our reasoning process. Which are superior in this chain of communication? Senses > Mind > Intelligence > Individual Consciousness. In this list, Intelligence is superior to Mind, But Consciousness is Superior to both Mind and Intelligence. Our type of personality does not reveal itself on an exam. Some events can make a part of our personality emerge that was not apparent. It may have been dormant. This is addressed in the seven rays. The rays emerge from the seven stars in the constellation described above. The rays are also represented in the Christian symbol of the dove.
Although, it is often displayed. The meaning is not explained. In some representation the seven rays terminate in seven stars. Other representations in paintings can be a rainbow. On certain days you may feel your best, other days you surprise yourself in what you can achieve. Still others you feel sad. Understanding yourself is the road to wisdom. Your mind is personal and is the greatest mystery. We tend to look outside for a solution rather than from within.
The seven stars and the Seven Rays that come form them.
We all exhibit these personalities. They are called upon, by us, when needed. Working out your current personality with this method will give you a deeper appreciation of yourself. It is far better than a magazine psychology test, or a human resource test. Which some psychologists have proposed for job screenings.

The evidence of the seven rays can be seen in this painting entitled van Eyck, The Annunciation, 1420-1434. Also note the rainbow on the wing. This relates to the seven Rays in Islam. The mention of the dove is in Luke 1:26-38.
