The Hunter of the East is a reference to the constellation Orion,
connected by some with the Fool.
As a meditative pleasantry it sounds delightful.
What would be the other 21 constellations? ;)

A great (and quick) read: Constellation: Orion.
The ancient Arabians called Orion Al Jauzah...
He was the Sun-god of both the Egyptians and Phoenicians.
The Hindus once called him Praja-pati, meaning~ The Stag.
In ancient China, Orion formed part of a larger constellation
recognized as the White Tiger.
