A robed woman stands on a circular platform engraved with astrological symbols, raising her hands toward a dark eclipse in a star-filled sky. A beam of golden light connects the eclipse to her hands. Constellations glow above, and a waterfront city with boats, candles, and an armillary sphere appears in the background at night.

From the Greek-derived elements astro- (“star”) and -latry (“worship”).
