This symbol may seem frustrating, but it is only a matter of time until the roses bloom. The fact that there are many buds is promising. One needs only to meet the bush’s needs—water it, protect it from frost, etc.—to bring the blooms forth. You’re about nurturing yourself and others by figuring out what you or they need to thrive and grow. The man of the Omega Symbol walks into the pages of the novel because he must need what the novel’s story has to offer. The stories we tell ourselves and the stories we are drawn to are reflections of our own story, and are a key to what it is we need to fulfill ourselves.

We cannot manipulate the rose bush into blooming, and there is no need to try to make happen what will occur effortlessly anyway. The secret of success for this degree is to meet the needs of the moment, which is the best way to create an optimal future. And to listen carefully to the stories we’re telling ourselves.
