| Each constellation contains an asterism or a pattern of imaginary lines joining a collection of stars. |
| The cabochon cut can reveal asterism effects, that is to say a four or six-pointed star observed within the stone. |
| With the bright stars Deneb and Altair, Vega is part of the prominent asterism of the Summer Triangle. |
| In mythology the asterism is personified as one of the daughters of Daksha, and wives of the moon. |
| The chatoyant effect is similar to asterism or the star effect, except there is one straight ray instead of four or six. |
