mul4KAR2.ŠUL (𒌌𒃸𒂄) is attested only twice, in consecutive omens in the closing section of the series MUL.APIN. In the first omen it is likely a name for Venus since the divine name dKAR2.ŠUL appears elsewhere for the goddess Inanna-Ištar. In the second, mul4KAR2.ŠUL has more than one star making it a multi-star asterism, also most likely associated with this same goddess (see Hunger-Steele 2019: 125-126).

Астрологические предсказания: a) DIŠ mul4KAR2.ŠUL ina itiŠE uš-pa-lak-kam-ma BE u2-sa-naq-ma BE NU (или BE-nu) «Если mul4KAR2.ŠUL в месяце аддару…смерти» (II iii 17) [MA, 108]; смысл протасиса и аподосиса неясен [ibid., 133], b) DIŠ ina lib3-bi mul4KAR2.ŠUL 1 MUL ma-gal KUR4 KUR2 «Если одна звезда в mul4KAR2.ŠUL имеет большой блеск: враг» (II iii 18) [MA, 109].

В списках богов dKAR2.ŠUL соотносится c dIš-tar и dIn-ni-na [Litke 1998, 234:87; MA, 133; Tallqvist 1938, 341], что указывает на связь с Венерой, однако в предсказании b) речь идет, по-видимому, о созвездии.
