Calculate Labrum in the natal chart

Labrum (Delta Crateris) is located in the constellation Crater, “the Cup,” symbolizing the goblet associated with Apollo, given to the sacred crow (Corvus) to fetch water. In myth, the crow delayed its task, lying that it was impeded by a serpent, resulting in Apollo casting crow, serpent, and cup into the sky as a perpetual reminder of integrity, responsibility, and the consequences of deceit. Thus, Labrum embodies themes of trust, obligation, and consequences tied to ethical choices.
