    I think that if there are constellations named after the gods then they were
    named after the original gods first, and only after Deismaar did they take
    their current names.

    Looking at the PHB you can see that the 9th level thief only gets a dozen or
    so theives for his guild, I would say that this would amount to less than
    what is required for a guild(0) to function, so I would just count them as
    ineffective against the economy of the province they are in
    However, if the (probably extremely wealthy) 9th level thief were to
    spend 1GB to expand his operation into a level 0 Guild then he would become
    a regent and the problem would go away.

    As the original post said, "no Earth Zodiacal signs are named after gods"
    (paraphrase), and I mearly pointed out that it is really a big coincidence
    that Aries happens to be a zodiacal sign and the name of a GOd without the
    two being related....
