1.a Aries zodiac sign, interval of celestial position
Crios autem ideo a Graecis dictum est hoc signum, quod, cum <in> eo Sol fuerit, inter diem et noctem quodammodo iudicat, quod crinein dicitur, et quod in eo signo inter hiemem positus et aestatem ipse rursus iudicetur.
‘This sign is called κριός by the Greeks because when the Sun is in it, it judges between day and night, as it were, which is called κρίνειν, and because located in that sign between winter and summer it is judged likewise.’
