This
zodiac plaque represents the celebration of the Jewish lunar calendar.
The Hebraic script for the months (center ring)
is translated into phonetic English (outer ring).
Like many calendars before Roman times, the Hebrew calendar was a lunar calendar
based on the moon as well as the sun cycles. This wonderful calendar gave an
indication of the day of the month through the phases of the moon. Anyone
looking up into the night sky could get some idea of the day of the month, if
they recorded thier first sighting of the new moon. The first day of any given
month was determined by the first sighting of the new moon.
Black bonded stone wall plaque with ash colored antiquing measures
5.5 inches X 5.5 inches X 1 inch
