Deneb Okab (Delta Aquilae) is the tail of the Eagle in the constellation Aquila. The eagle has long symbolized power, divine will, courage, and connection to the heavens—often seen as Zeus’s messenger or associated with spiritual ascension. The star name comes from Arabic Dhanab al-uqab, meaning “tail of the eagle.”

In mythology, the eagle was a solar bird, bringing divine messages from the gods and representing lofty ideals, vigilance, and boldness. As part of the Aquila constellation, it holds the mythic echo of divine favor and celestial duty.
