Q the Dendera Zodiac

Note in each of the four corners (Scorpius, Leo, Taurus, and Aquarius) there are four feminine figures standing erect with their feet on a larger square. Also seen are four personification of Horuses (eight figures) with their arms refolded and correspond to the four sides of the square. They all hold on to the cupola of the sky. On the Eastern side of the image to the right is also seen (not shown here) an image of a nude woman (the Goddess, Hathor) with arms stretched above her head and toes extended. The orientation of the zodiac has her head pointing to the south.

I would like to point out that Libra appears to have the symbol for Harpocrates (Horus the Child) in a sun disk pointing to his lips (a figure pointing to their lips is the Egyptian hieroglyph for child).
