Knight of Wands + Hanged Man, Heart of Stars + Voodoo
Will (Power) has left the building!
"Here the dark will not come and Light will not shine. Here actions know neither success nor failure; conclusion is forgotten in numb repetition."
The spider mechanically moves in circles.
For the impatient, it's enough with a couple of days of 'neither success nor failure' to 'loose the spark'.
No signs of progress or results, and no 'redirection'.
Success gives us adrenaline and energy, failure gives us something to work on, correct, process or solve.
Nothing, gives us... nothing...!
These periods when it feels like we're 'working for nothing' really tests our #faith
Enforced surrender. Or "externally motivated" as the book calls it ,:)
Really triggers that part of us who "would like everything to work in your favor right away" (portrayed by the 'risky and unpredictable' Maverick in Top Gun).
So I guess that's were the work is :)
Not calling for fierce bold fast action like the Knight likes it, but important work (requiring other kind of courage) nonetheless!
Doing nothing is also an action ,:)
Maybe the hardest one!
It makes me think about horse carriage driving, where 'the halt' (standing still) is called 'the most important gait'!
For how long can we stand still without 'loosing it'?!
I better come to peace with this, I have my Midheaven in HD Gate/Gene Key 52 - #KeepingStill / #Restraint - #Stillness !
It's in opposition to my Mars though >< so I wonder if I ever fully will ,:)
Mars having the shadow of #SelfObsession , the gift of #Naturalness and the Siddhi #Being
So the key really is in the Being, it's the Self-Obsessed ego that wants to do, do and move (and the Capricorn part that gives it a rather narrow view on the concept of Work ,:) ).
