46 Aconite

Difficult decisions, sacrifice

You’re facing a difficult or painful decision with no ‘right’ answer readily available. Yet, in your heart of hearts, you already know what you’re going to do - don’t agonize over it for longer than you have to.

Named for the hills on which Hercules fought Cerberus in a short but bloody battle, aconite promises that there’s relief to be had after the brief and challenging fallout of your decision. When things seem unbearable, know that this won’t last forever.

Learning a new skill, expanding knowledge, transformation

Aconite is a scholar's plant, always hungry for knowledge and the power that comes with learning. Through its wisdom, it turned the maiden Arachne into a spider and taught the first werewolves the power of transformation.

You've made it as far as you can with the expertise you already possess - now it's time to assess the gaps in your knowledge and focus on filling them in. A new class, hobby or experience will be a rewarding opportunity for you to further yourself and become a wiser you.
