The hand of god holds "Nature" (the naked woman) on a chain. She in turn holds man (represented by an ape!!!!!!! ) on a chain. Man is on Earth at the center. The next spheres represent all the flora and fauna and minerals and things on Earth...in their order of supposed importance.... and related to the 4 elements. Then the spheres of the firmament.... with planets and the sun (the moon is considered a planet. See...no Pluto!) Then the stars. And beyond that the sphere of heaven and its hosts.
