I see. That's a pretty small thing to build a great
theory on though. It is not clear that it has a 
meaning that extends to the twelve-fold division
outside it. 
While to me it does look like a windrose (is that
English?), that may be anachronistic.
The words around it are also eight in number,
but are not aligned with the eight divisions, and
there is a clear start marker, so this looks more
like a short sentence.  

Mind you, a figure combining a 12-fold division
with the compass directions would not at all
be impossible. It would refer to an observer
at a certain date: Aries (e.g.) would be due south
(culminating) and the other signs could be 
correlated to the other directions.

Cheers, Rene
