The planets from left to right: Moon (in silver), Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, Neptune, Uranus. In contrast to the figural group opposite, these faces represent the positive aspects of the named planets. Accordingly, they gleam in gold and their glow can be seen from afar. The invisible planets whose negative aspects are embodied in the Erinyes just a short distance away, stand to the back.
