THE WHISPER
“A giant holding a number of bleeding hearts pierced on his sword.” — The 360 Symbolic Degrees
Progress is blocked, communications are blocked; and confusion creates insecurity. Trust issues come out as annoyance, tension, or fool’s pride. Maybe a partner doesn’t show up. But you can relax.
Listen to the whisper. That’s the thing you’re supposed to do.
Ambition stabs people in the heart, attacking people who are better than him. He’s bitter, makes enemies, and plays the martyr… but he succeeds in the end. A deal is broken. Or, a settlement occurs.
It’s a great day for facts and figures, or paperwork. Reevaluate your finances, change bank accounts. Patience and detailed precision will lead to success.
