Ὑδροχόος

ἔστι δὲ ἐν αὐτῷ τὰ μέσα τοῦ Αἰγόκερω καὶ οἱ πόδες τοῦ Ὑδροχόου (...) τοῦ Σκορπίου τὸ κέντρον· εἶτα διὰ τοῦ Τοξότου πρὸς τὰ μέσα τοῦ Αἰγόκερω συνάπτει

‘In it (sc. the Tropic of Capricorn) are the middle of Capricorn and the feet of Aquarius (...) the stinger of Scorpio, and then it joins to the middle of Capricorn via Sagittarius’

ζωϊδίων δέ ἑ κύκλον ἐπίκλησιν καλέουσιν· τῷ ἔνι Καρκίνος ἐστί, Λέων ἐπὶ τῷ, μετὰ δ’ αὐτὸν Παρθένος· αἱ δ’ ἐπί οἱ Χηλαὶ καὶ Σκορπίος αὐτὸς Τοξευτής τε καὶ Αἰγόκερως, ἐπὶ δ’ Αἰγοκερῆϊ Ὑδροχόος (...) ἐν τοῖς ἠέλιος φέρεται δυοκαίδεκα πᾶσιν πάντ’ ἐνιαυτὸν ἄγων, καί οἱ περὶ τοῦτον ἰόντι κύκλον ἀέξονται πᾶσαι ἐπικάρπιοι ὧραι.

‘They call it (sc. the ecliptic) by the name 'Circle of the figurines' (zōidiōn kuklos, i.e. the zodiac): in it is Cancer, after that there is Leo, after that is Virgo, and after that, the Claws and Scorpio itself, Sagittarius and Capricorn, and after Capricorn, Aquarius (...) In all twelve of them the Sun moves along as it passes each year, and as it goes around this circle, all the seasons wax fruitful.’

‘And the 12 zodiac signs are these: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces.’

Ὑδροχόος ἐστὶν ἐν οὐρανῷ ζῴδιον ἀρρενικόν, στερεόν, ἀνθρωπόμορφον, πάρυγρον, μονογενές· ἔστι δὲ ἄφωνον, κατάψυχρον, ἐλεύθερον, ἀνωφερές, θηλυνόμενον, ἀμετάβλητον, κακόν, ὀλιγόγονον, αἴτιον μόχθων τῶν δι’ ἀθλήσεως ἢ βασταγμάτων καὶ σκληρουργίας, ἐργαστικόν, δημόσιον
