Stellar Symbolism, Sagittarius, and the God Nurgle
The analysis of Balenciaga's imagery continues with a focus on stellar symbolism, specifically the use of a teapot representing Sagittarius and the galactic center. Knowles associates this with the ancient god Nurgle, a deity of disease and death. He also identifies alignments of Draco and Ursa Minor in the imagery, which he notes appeared on the cover of Alice Bailey's first occult book.
