Thank you, VViews, it's a very interesting illustration.
I cannot answer your question, but some of the other planet personifications are peculiar. Venus and Saturn seem to be represented by their "children" (a lover and a hanged man). This possibly apply to Mars and Mercury too. But Jupiter is even stranger.
The only thing that comes to my mind is that, since Jupiter is the king of the seven planets, all the seven have been included in its medallion.
