Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Month: “a woman activist in an emotional speech dramatizing a cause” (the inner self coming forward)
Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: “the magic carpet of Oriental imagery” (transcending the past)
The drama of this lunar month ends today, with the energetics favoring openness, willingness, focus, sincerity, discernment, and effort: With an open heart, we discern our sincere will and desire.
Openness and Strength is discharged by the Sun at the Sabian symbol of “one hand slightly flexed with a prominent thumb.” This energetic involves willingness to “extend” oneself or be open to vulnerability. Flexibility and patience with circumstances and situations is often necessary. We expand our perceptions, feelings, and beliefs to find a true course – our sincere will and desire.
