This was the very first of my own attempts at coming up with my own planetary image - a very regal looking image for Jupiter. The symbols at the bottom of the image are taken from the Picatrix.

FIrst image posted is this original design by myself. The images of the moon traditionally found in texts such as Agrippa and The Picatrix are incredibly complicated (usually involving multiple snakes wrapped around multiple limbs) and i will attempt to work on them at some point - however for now, i'm pretty pleased with this image of my own creation.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was one of the first of a set of personal images i came up with for my own use, combining various elements of luna attributes to make this design. The mask is indicative of secrecy and illusion, the plants could be healing herbs, or the leaves (the part of the plant ruled by the moon) of a number of healing herbs. She wears a mantilla/habit like cloth over her head akin to various religious women as well as the high priestess in the Tarot. Her stomach is swollen with pregnancy, and finally her face is that of an owl, which to me, is one of the most overtly lunar animals. </div>

I set up this page so that I have an online space in which to store my various images in a chronological way so i can access them wherever - rather than using a private drive of some kind, i thought i'd do them this way, so that other people can have a look and maybe get something from my interpretation of various images etc. Like I say, this is new to me, and I'm not particularily good at articulating myself in text, that said, i shall press on and hopefully things will grow from here into something interesting to look at!<br />

A note on the name of the blog: Et Sint In Signa is taken from Genesis 1:14<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'times new roman', palatino, serif; line-height: 24px;"><i><br /></i></span>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'times new roman', palatino, serif; line-height: 24px;">Then God said: “Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven.

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman', palatino, serif; line-height: 24px;">This quote always stuck with me and as this is going to be a blog primarily concerned with planetary/astrological images i thought i'd pilfer it for my blog title. who knows, it could all change, but for now, i'm going with it. First images should be coming soon.</span></div>
