Your instincts serve you. You feel your way through life and your feelings tend to lead you somewhere true, so you are the master of your own inner weather rather than its subject. You can trust the pull in your gut and act from it with a sense of quiet command over your own moods and reactions.
Your instincts run you rather than serve you. Feelings arrive and you are swept along, reacting before you can choose, as though your moods are in charge and you are just along for the ride. Sometimes the gut pull leads you toward what harms you. The longing here is to be the one steering, instead of being driven by whatever rises up inside.

This system, and the Golden Dawn
Moon ☽ · High Priestess (II)
Saturn ♄ · The World (XXI)

Across the three spheres
| Universe | Year | Soul |
|---|---|---|
| Moon ☽ | In preparation | In preparation |
The Year and Soul columns are being rebuilt from Hayman §§39, 41, 52 and will fill in as that reading is verified.
