Interest in occultism (B. Israel). Catastrophe of hopes, obstacles caused by someone’s malicious will (O. Troyanovsky). Degree of Mercury. A solitary, unsuccessful life, especially toward the end. Seemingly achieving something, yet ending life in isolation. Someone restrains him, prevents him from expressing himself. Limited, prolonged illness. Danger of degradation (Teboichnyi Calendar). Degree of Neptune. “A heart rising atop a bare cliff jutting straight out of the ocean; white seabirds flying in a flock shaped like a crescent moon, rapidly approaching it from the east.” – Indicates a person capable of great sacrifices, who gives himself entirely to his cause without expecting reward. He will often be alone, and life’s storms and tempests will constantly threaten him. Ultimately, he will attain wisdom and abundance, and the second half of such a person’s life will prove promising. This is the symbol of Devotion (I. Kosminsky).
