Three-section orbs

[Barbrey]

That the spirals in the small cosmo illustration seem to come from outside the universe is reflected in the rosettes page as well -the “frame narrative” outside the rosettes spheres proper show, at least to me, a Greek/hermetic philosophy on the creation of the cosmos.  Top left, empty path to something?  Using my perspective, this can only lead to the  invisible “unmoved mover”. Bottom right: the creation of the elements from matter (watery earth). Bottom left: Aion, the ages, cosmic time rather than chronological. These are three existing pillars of many philosophies and religions from before the creation, particularly the Greeks.  So basically, cranks or not, the first cause of motion in an Aristotelian universe comes from outside the universe.
