Title : The Twelve Ecliptic Constellations with Kepler's First Law
The composition of this calligraphy work is similar to the astronomical chart written on the wall of the ancient Kitora tomb, located in the village of Asuka, Nara prefecture, Japan.
The three larger circles are formed with the twelve ecliptic constellations, written in both Japanese and English, and the astrological houses.
The central circle consists of the ruling planets of the constellations.
Finally, on top of this all, there is the formula of Kepler's First Law of planetary motion, written with diluted ink.
