Zodiac sign – Alpha House
The title “Zodiac” spans epochs, weaving through early Babylon, Greece, and Byzantium. A mesmerizing zodiac wheel unfurls, intertwining symbols from Greek, Byzantine, and early Christian cultures. Within this mosaic, a fifth or sixth-century synagogue emerges, adorned with celestial symbols in a Jewish settlement. The seemingly alien zodiac, perceived by Jews as linked to a seasonal and agricultural cycle, once harmoniously adorned the synagogue floor, a natural element of daily prayer. The essence lies in the positive cultural influence we wield when coexisting peacefully, crafting a shared heritage tapestry.
