clear that Venus was either in Taurus or on its boundary with
Gemini, outside Gemini. Indeed, Venus is located outside the
Gemini brackets, on the side of Taurus.
Now it become understandable why in the group of Venus,
in which we initially included four female figures with the
planetary walking sticks, there were two larger and two
smaller figures, while on all the previously analyzed zodiacs
Venus was always represented by two figures of the same size.
In fact, as it turned out, in the case of the Small zodiac, it
wasn’t different. Simply, two female figures of the larger size
were not related to Venus, but they were a part of the Gemini
brackets. Their similar to Venus appearance was caused by the
association of this symbol with the astronomical hieroglyph
of the summer solstice in Gemini, where such a female figure
symbolizes Venus (see subsection 5.8.4). On the Small zodiac,
this hieroglyph is divided into two parts, which are the Gemini
brackets in the bottom row.
On the color annotated zodiac, two female figure corresponding
to the Gemini brackets are marked in red, while
two other, which symbolize Venus, are marked in yellow.
7.6.3 Planetary Figures in the Main Horoscope
on the Small Esna Zodiac
Let us begin with the Sun and Moon. On the Small zodiac
there are only two discs, which could be considered as representations
of the Sun and Moon, present. Both discs can
be found in the middle row — the first one is located in between
the horns of Taurus, and the second one is over Aries.
We had a similar situation on the Big Esna zodiac, although
on the Small zodiac the two discs are completely identical.
Therefore, as it was also a case with the Big zodiac, we have
to consider two possibilities:
(1) The Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Aries, or
(2) The Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Aries.
In the full solution, we’ve obtained later that the Sun was
located in Taurus and the Moon in Aries.
All the other planetary symbols, as we already discussed
it the previous subsection, are placed in the bottom row of
the zodiac. They are arranged in groups of travelers holding
walking sticks. It was the most fortunate that all these planetary
symbols were located in the preserved part of the Small
zodiac. Among these groups only Venus can be recognized
without any trouble. For the remaining male planets we had
to consider all the possible cases in order to avoid eventual
mistakes caused by our subjective judgment in recognizing the
male planets symbolized by these groups of travelers. Nevertheless,
in the final full solution, we found out that many of
ours initial ideas were confirmed. We’ve already discussed in
section 5.4 several specific attributes of the planetary symbols
in the main horoscope on various Egyptian zodiacs, which can
be used to identify these planets. In particular, we discussed
there the planetary figures on the Small Esna zodiac.
7.6 Decoding the Date from the Small Esna Zodiac 199
Let us list the planetary groups in the bottom row on
the Small zodiac and indicate their identification, which was
obtained in the final full solution. We begin at the left end
of the zodiac, and move gradually to the right side till we
reach the destroyed part of the zodiac. On the color annotated
zodiac, all these groups are marked in yellow.
The First Planet — the group composed of two travelers
holding planetary walking sticks. Both of them wear high
hats. According to the full solution, this group represent Mars
in the main horoscope. Following them is the male figure,
with falcon’s head with a feather, holding a planetary walking
stick. This figure is the left Gemini bracket. That implies
that this planet was in Gemini. A small star is placed in front
of the face of the first traveler in this group. This is the usual
attribute of visibility, which means that this planet was visible.
It is quite clear, because according to its location among
zodiacal constellations, it was very far from the Sun.
A little further to the right, the same planet (again represented
by two similar male travelers) is shown in a boat.
That means, this is a symbol of the partial horoscope. We
will discuss it later. Further, there is the right Gemini bracket
symbolized by a pair of female figures holding planetary walking
sticks. The Gemini brackets were already explained in the
preceding subsection. After that, we reach the next planetary
procession on the Small zodiac.
The Second Planet — two female figures holding planetary
walking sticks. The leading female has the lioness head. This is
clearly a symbol of Venus (for more information about Venus
symbols see subsection 5.4.8). This pair is located on the right
site of the right Gemini bracket, i.e. it was not located in
Gemini. That means, Venus was either in Taurus or between
Gemini or Taurus. There is again a small star in the front of
the first female’s face, which means that Venus was visible.
However, here this is a rather important information, because
the Sun could be located in Taurus as well.
The Third Planet — a single male figure with human face
holding a planetary walking stick. According to the obtained
full solution — this planet was Mercury. It was located under
Taurus and Aries, thus Mercury was in Taurus or in Aries.
There is no small star around it, so Mercury was not visible.
The Forth Planet — three male travelers, two of them with
ram’s heads and one with ibis head. According to the full
solution — this planet was Saturn (see subsections 5.4.2 and
5.4.3, where we discussed in detail the symbolism of Saturn
in the main horoscope on the Egyptian zodiacs). This planet
is located in between Aquarian brackets, therefore it was in
Aquarius. In front of the middle traveler’s face there is a small
star — an attribute of visibility for this planet. However, it is
clear that with such a large distance from the Sun, this planet
had to be visible, so even without this attribute (which is
could be omitted here) the visibility of this planet is obvious.
The Fifth Planet — the long procession, composed of seven
male travelers at the right end of the preserved part of the
