LA STROLEGA - The Astrologer

Sort of a sorceress, but a benevolent one, she reads the good books and makes predictions to who wants to know about his/her future.

Unmarried girls are the preferred ones, but as we can tell from the image also old ladies and men.

"Son qua chi vol la strolega mi crio;
Per veder de becar qualche traireto,
Massime ale putazze da mario."

"Who wants the fortune teller,
here I am, I scream;
To try to make some small change,
Especially from the marriageable girls."

This Astrologer setup is the perfect one here:

• St. Mark's Square, quite in the middle of it
• small stage and chair: so the Astrologer can work from a vantage point, and comfortable
• all the right instruments to deliver her wisdom: book with planets & stuff, long cane for the "personal and magical predictions".
  Can't go wrong.
