 algenib
This white star marks the extreme tip of the Horse's wing, so that its name Algenib has been considered as derived from Al Janah, "the Wing" of Pegasus, but it probably is from Al-Janb, "the Side" or "the Flank".
It was thought that Alpha (Markab), with gamma (this star Algenib) and zeta (Homam), were the Euphratean asterism Lik-bar-ra, or Ur-bar-ra, "the Hyena".
This star, Algenib with alpha Andromedae, Alpheratz and beta Cassiopeiae (Caph) makes up the Three Guides, marking the equinoctial colure, the prime meridian of the heavens.

 Algenib   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Second magnitude (2.83) as viewed from Earth, Algenib is a brilliant hot blue class B (B2) star with a high temperature of 21,500 Kelvin.
Algenib is measured by the Doppler effect to be an especially slow rotator, only 8 kilometers per second (4 times solar), unusual for hot class B stars, which are ordinarily high-speed spinners.
Algenib itself has a principal very short period (the only one so far found) of only 3.6 hours, during which it changes by some 0.07 magnitudes.

The star, Alpheratz, in the upper left corner of the Square marks first base (Alpheratz, in fact, actually belongs to the constellation of Andromeda, the Princess).
Algenib, in the lower left corner of the Square is second base, while Markab in the lower right corner is third base.
If your skies are reasonably dark, you'll be able to see two fourth magnitude stars - Tau and Upsilon Pegasi -- both inside of the Square, and roughly one-third the distance from Scheat to Algenib.

 Star Log: December 2000
Pegasus has long carried the association of a magical horse, and the Arabic names of the two stars at the bottom of the square reflect this history.
The star on the left is named Algenib, denoting the wingtip of the winged horse.
Across from Algenib on the lower-right corner is Markab, which means saddle.

In the beginning of Phase III there were three zenith stars, Algenib, Capella, and Deneb, but about 1000 AD Algenib became a grazing circumpolar star, as indicated in Figure 9.
The walls are either in the rising direction of one of the stars or perpendicular to the direction of the grazing circumpolar star as indicated in the table below.
And the fact that walls P,Q and S are the longest linear ones suggests they were constructed last in the development of the site, when the builders had settled on the nature of the shell structure.

Delta (Alpheratz), the brightest, actually belongs to Andromeda as Alpha Andromedae, leaving Alpha, Beta, and Gamma Pegasi (Markab, Scheat, and Algenib) ranking 3-2-4 in the constellation and 2-1-3 in the Square, Algenib the faintest of them.
Second magnitude (2.83) as viewed from Earth, Algenib is a brilliant hot blue class B (B2) star with a high temperature of 23,200 Kelvin.
From its distance of 335 light years, and allowing for a lot of ultraviolet radiation, we find a luminosity 4000 times that of the Sun (one suggestion as high as 12,000, though that seems extreme) and a radius of 4.5 solar.

I was shocked to find that the next time I met Paul he showed me a painting which he had completed at the same time as my Journey to Algenib (though he had no knowledge that I would be Journeying at this time).
There, on the painting was the exact globe that I had seen, hovering and surrounded by the electric shades of colour that I had seen in my vision.

 Main
It is the star Alpheratz which does double duty and forms the quadrant together with Algenib, Markab and Scheat in Pegasus.
This will coincide with a 15-year Scorpio sub-cycle where the age of Pisces is divided into 144 (12*12) sub-cycles.
Alpheratz brought its manifoldness or culture and Algenib blotted and brought confiscation.

NOTE: the star Algenib goes by many names, but is entered into the Autostar library under that name.
The most common association with this star by far is "Mirfak," which translates as "elbow of the Hero," or "Perseus Elbow." This huge and bright (4,200 more than our own sun!) star is 570 light years distant, making it one of the most remote of all 1st magnitude (it is actually magnitude 1.8) stars.
Wide field views reveal thousands of stars surrounding Algenib, particularly a group of fairly bright stars immediately surrounding the bright star for as much as 2 degrees.
