Hello, I'm new here so maybe this has been talked about before but I didn't find a post about it.
I was wondering if Easter could be the reason why Aries and Taurus are divided in two each and figures seem to be getting dressed with a transition from more than half the figures lightly clothed in Aries 1 to all (but one?) fully clothed in Aries 2 to most figures covered in Taurus 1 to nudity again from Taurus 2 on (apart from 4 figures in Gemini because why not).
I didn't consider the month names added later, but while checking a few books of hours trying to find similitudes I've found some where Aries is Mars and Taurus Auril:

Also I checked Easter dates for all of the 15th century (Julian Calendar) and the earliest was on the 22nd of March in 1478, and the latest on the 25th of April in 1451 (which it seems is the normal range) so this would only make sense ignoring the month names.
So far I failed with finding similitudes with a book of hours, the only familiar thing I could see was this one maybe making wine in Virgo.
I'd appreciate opinions or links to earlier posts or related information.
Cheers
