This diagram illustrates the science of precession, with the addition of the designation of stellar axes as golden and iron and approximate year dates for each Age. I have also added the big southern stars which mark the Pole, Canopus, Achernar and Beta Carinae, and the Large Magellanic Cloud which is located at the base of earth's spin cone. The diagram shows how the Vedic imagery matches the zodiacal ages as a model of the temporal structure of the earth.
