The Love Oracle

Your current love situation

Your current situation can be depicted as "Limitation" transforming into "The Taming Power of the Small".

In front of you lies "Water" which transforms into "Wind". That means that danger and the unknown are being transformed into penetration and following.
Behind you lies "Lake" which transforms into "Heaven". That means that joy, pleasure, and attraction are being transformed into strength and creativity.
