Abstract
Lunaries have been a subject of research in world historiography for a long time. The article is devoted to two zodiacal lunaries as well as the specific character of their content. They are part of the Codex Suprasliensis, along with other astrological texts. A Zodiac lunary is a prognostic based on the position of the Moon in the zodiac signs. It possesses advice for medicine and everyday life. Generally, lunaries belong to popular astrological literature, do not require serious special knowledge, and are widely available for understanding. This type of sources was widespread in Babylon, Ancient Greece, the Byzantine Empire, medieval Europe and England. These lunaries came to the GDL from the Byzantine Empire.
