Hey Oncers,

watching the Sneak Peak of Heroes and Villians something that Gold said to Hook striked me:

Mr. Gold: Tonight, when the stars in the sky aline the stars in the sorcerer's hat, I will finally do what I should have done so many years ago."

So, celestial allignments have a say in whether Gold's plan works or not? Obviously, Mr. Gold needs to wait for a certain constellation. The sky needs to match the hat, right? I mean, I always wondered how Gold will know, if he has collected enough power within the hat. Looking for a constellation that slowly build herself up every time a new star (new power) was added to the hat, makes  it easier for Gold, right? Counting stars would be much more tiresome.

So far, so good. However, in the Land Without Magic some celestial allignments or stars are only visible on either the in the southern hemisphere or the northern hemisphere. The Pole Star is only visible in the northern hemisphere. The Southern Cross is only visible in the southern hemisphere. Depending on the season some constellations can be seen more clearly in the northern hemisphere or the southern hemisphere. For example, the constellation Leo is visible in spring (I live in Germany)

Adam and Eddy said the show's timeline is behind our present time, Henry hasn't seen Frozen yet. So, which constellation is Gold waiting for?

Wouldn't sucking another person into the hat change the hat's sky making it impossible for Gold to achieve his plan? Releasing someone would change the sky, too, I think. Is that even possible? Leaving the hat,  I mean?
