Yes, something like that. currus in classical Latin is a wagon or cart, but a Medieval latinist would think of the verb currere/to run as well and invent a new meaning like " the running of the stars"
If they did mean to write curru rather than cursu, then perhaps the wagon they mean is a "chariot". The gods/constellations were often depicted in chariots (especially the sun god, but often some of the others).
I just looked at the original. Could it be "intuitu" (look, view, glance) rather than "in curru"?
I think it is "intuitu". Look at the end of the word right above it, where it says "_____tu[m]", it's written the same way, with the old-style "t".
