Tierkreis 1 Font
Author's note
Tierkreis 1 by Dieter Steffmann of Typographer Mediengestaltung is a free astrological dingbat font built from hand-drawn figures and zodiac symbolism. The scenes resemble rough medieval woodcuts.
As illustrated emblems, the symbols can shape horoscope columns, almanacs, and fortune-telling events. Their uneven contours and compact storytelling also suit historical fantasy games. Each sign functions as a miniature scene, so it can become a map badge or card device rather than ordinary text.
