Meaning

A flock of stars rushes toward the earth, carrying away a young maiden who travels peacefully under the open sky. What is the meaning of this sudden phenomenon? Is a battle beginning? Is this destiny or a sign? All she knows in this moment is that something is rapidly changing—for better or worse—and she should find a safer position to assess the situation.

Keywords

unclear information, hasty response, heightened activity that requires direction.

Visual Description

A young woman stands in a grassy field studded with small flowers and a flowering bush, a long scarf trailing down from her neck. Eight wooden wands streak diagonally across the sky behind her from upper left to lower right, their motion implied by angled lines and a few scattered leaves. She looks upward with raised hands, as if surprised or bracing against the rush of air, and a warm orange sky fades into a cooler blue above the distant fields. The image is framed by an ornate border of curling vines and leaves, with the numeral 8 at the top center.
