Degree of the physician; associated with food and drink (N. DeVore). “A serpent coiling around a man and a woman” — the power of higher wisdom revealed in bipolar nature. Patronage of the higher genius of the Self. Ritualization of relationships. Fulfillment in truth (D. Rudhyar). “Testing.” Spherical surfaces: ball players or astrologers (B. Israel) in cases of weakness of character, powerlessness. A person carried by the waves (Thebeotic Calendar). Meanwhile, a monkey devours their supplies. To his right stands the spirit of Truth; to his left, the spirit of Error; at his feet sits the spirit of Love; behind him, clutching his garment, stands the spirit of Hatred. Indicates a personality striving to attain a responsible position, power, and influence. Such a person will seek the spark of perfect light in others, which only needs a little help to ignite into a bright flame of glory. Yet he himself is threatened by Error and Hatred, and must turn toward the light of true understanding.
