You mention the medieval universe, and concentric spheres, which to me describes various representations of geocentric cosmos.



But then you say 

In the center is the sphere with the jars from which the essences come out, the virtues of the stars that make de herbs sprout and grow. 

and i realize that the medieval universe you are describing is not fitting with any i am thinking of. Can you point to an example showing the medieval universe you mean? 

Also, you haven't answered Koen's two questions re your astronomical clock being off center, and having only 8 divisions.



Here are some more questions:

Is it only meant to represent a hint toward an astronomical clock? Because it seems greatly lacking in complexity.

As it is off center, why are the divisions generally equally set? (How does one read this clock?)

What are we to gather from this representation?

How does it relate to the rosette it is closest to?
