Pisces sign is seen on top center of a Georgian medieval piece of art, on the right of the sun sign. The order of the astrological signs of the zodiac is against the clock. In middle top we see the sun and opposite it- the moon. During the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the Roman Church considered Zodiac signs as representations of Christ, and this Georgian zodiac seems to be inspired by this conception. Picture is courtesy of henribergius from Flickr who took it in the Sakartvelo Republic of Georgia.
Under each sign we see one of the twelve apostles.
From Kerikeri Christian Assemblies Of New Zealand:
