Taurus 26

In this symbol we find unusual and striking formations (the rocks in the garden) existing among the ground-down remains of other rocks (the sand), just as in the Omega Symbol we find the disintegrating remains of verbal documents flowing beneath the formal word constructs of the city above. In both symbols we have spontaneous natural processes—the rocks created by nature and the words disintegrating—as well as elements that are consciously and objectively formed—the sand garden and the very words themselves.

We may think of this degree as signifying the rise and fall of forms as they coalesce and then disintegrate. Beauty and meaning are ever-present in nature, and transcend words and all other constructs of the human mind. How wonderful and refreshing to get beyond the mind and to see striking uniqueness and originality in every aspect of cosmic processes. You dwell in the sacred patterns of decay and reformation—finding high, spiritual art in the raw processes of transformation.
