Happy August! Reaping is the Labor of the Month this month, as presented in LJS 449, a 15th century Medical and astronomical miscellany from Germany that includes a full calendar. I’ll be posting a Labor from LJS 449 every month for the next year. The manuscript also includes illustrations of all the astrological signs, which I’ll also be posting.Manuscript description and images: http://openn.library.upenn.edu/Data/LJSchoenbergManuscripts/html/ljs449.htmlEbook (epub format): http://repository.upenn.edu/sims_ebooks/62/Katelyn Mesler, 13th Century Entanglements, Part 2, a post on the SIMS blog about the Techel/Azareus Complex, “a Latin lapidary in which engravings of astrological symbols are said to imbue the stones with powers” - which is included in LJS 449 -- source link
