The Love Oracle

Your current love situation

Your current situation can be depicted as "Development (Gradual Progress)" transforming into "Innocence (The Unexpected)".

In front of you lies "Wind" which transforms into "Heaven". That means that penetration and following are being transformed into strength and creativity.
Behind you lies "Mountain" which transforms into "Thunder". That means that stillness and obstruction are being transformed into movement, initiative, and action.

Fostered and nourished all beings.
