MORE DETAILED INFORMATION:
0) Join Fallen Gods Inc. Group (Hud giver will prompt invite in local chat)
1) Get the Hunt HUD from Fallen Gods Inc. from Selidor, for example here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Selidor/123/137/36
2) Wear the HUD: it offers a map teleport to you, use it.
3) The HUD also gave you a hunt hint in local chat. If you missed it, press the HINT button to get it again.
4) Find an armillary sphere. It looks just like the sphere on the Hunt Poster and HUD. Click it, and the HUD congratulates you in local chat and offers you a new teleport. You have to be close enough to the sphere for the click to register, in a few locations you might need to fly.
5) Once you have found all the spheres, the HUD will teleport you to the Prize Room where you will get all the prizes! Either click the big sphere to receive all of them, or go one by one clicking the stands.

PROBLEM-SOLVING FAQ:
Q) I found a sphere, but didn't get a gift!
A) That's right. Complete the hunt and you will get all the gifts at the end of the ~Zodiac~ Hunt.

Q) I closed the teleport map by accident, how do I get it up again?
A) Click the HINT button. That will repeat the next hint to you, and if you are not in the right sim, it will pop up the teleport map again.

Q) I forgot what the hint was!
A) Click the HINT button, it will repeat the hint to you.

Q) I found the sphere, but clicking it doesn't do anything!
A) Check your local chat. You might be too far from the sphere, sometimes you have to fly to be within the reach. Or maybe you did get it, but the map didn't pop up. Press HINT button again to see if it will repeat this location's hint, or give you the next one with a map teleport. Also try right clicking the sphere and then choosing 'touch' from the menu. Make sure the item you are clicking is called ~Zodiac~ Anchor, and is not a promotional stand that just looks similar.

Q) I've searched and searched and can't find it! Are there any extra hints?
A) You can ask for help in Fallen Gods Inc. group. Be polite, and also ask for the extra hints to be im-ed to you, to avoid spoilers in the group chat. Fallens are usually very helpful and friendly. You had to join the group to get the HUD, but if you already left it Fallen Gods Inc. group can be joined by copy-pasting this in local chat and then clicking:  secondlife:///app/group/ed1aa2db-9919-01c0-1573-624f32aad180/about

Q) I'm banned from a store on the hunt, am I now stuck?
A) Nope! Contact Sonya Marmurek and she'll help you out so you can still finish the hunt.

Q) I can't go to the next sim because it's Adult rated, am I now stuck?
A) Nope! Contact Sonya Marmurek and she'll help you out so you can still finish the hunt.

Q) I ended up somewhere where there's no stores at all!
A) Teleport out, for example your own home, and click HINT button again for a fresh teleport to make sure you are where you should be.
A2) Check from the hover text of your HUD what is the store name you're asked to visit. Then click STORES button and choose the same name from there. This will give you a landmark. Use it.

Q) There's a lot of buildings here, which one is the right one?
A) Some stores have other stores nearby. Check your HUD, it says the name of the store you're supposed to go to with a hover-over "Visit <store name>". Make sure you're in the right store: usually the stores have their name on top of their door, but the very least you can see it from their vendors. Sometimes the beacon of the teleport guides you the right way, too.

Q) I want to go back to a store I visited earlier for important shoppings!
A) All the stores have landmarks in the HUD. Click STORES button and find the store you want to visit from the menu, then click it to receive the landmark.

Q) I want to visit the Prize Room again!
A) Keep the Completed HUD. When you want to re-visit the Prize Room, just wear it and click HINT button. There will be local chat text, ending in a SLURL to the Prize Room. Use that to go back.

Q) I'm buried under all these gifts and cannot move!
A) Open them one at a time and remember to caffeinate between loot-sortings!
