Abstract
The article presents different gardens featuring cosmic principles or motifs. Among the examples: the first garden mentioned by the Sumerians; the Biblical Garden of Eden; the astral-related gardens of the Ancient Egyptians; Plato’s garden in Athens; and Tycho Brahe’s ‘Uraniborg on Hven’. The motifs usually focus on planetary spheres and star-shaped designs. Allegorically, these, as well as other thematic astral elements of gardens, enabled the elite to ponder astral and religioud mysteries.
