Right Angle Cross of Eden: your life theme

In this cross lives a deep intuition of how beautiful life can be. You feel it when something is out of accord, often more finely than others, and you long for the state in which people and world are at peace. Your theme is not to lose this ideal and yet to live in the real world. You are here to make abundance possible.

Your strengths on this path

Your strength is a feel for harmony and enjoyment. You bring beauty into the everyday, know how to savour, and give others the feeling of being welcome simply by the way you shape a room or a moment. Near you, life grows a little lighter and richer.

How your cross shows in everyday life

In daily life your cross shows where you create spaces of abundance, a beautiful home, a good table, a warm encounter that others remember long afterward. Your gift is to remind others that life is there to be enjoyed, not only to be got through.

Shadow & test

The shadow shows as flight from the world. You can long so much for the ideal that reality keeps disappointing you, however good it actually is. Then you flee into dreams, numb the discontent, or wait for a paradise that never quite comes, while the good life goes on lying right in front of you.

Your maturation

Your growth lies in finding paradise within the real, not beyond it. Ask yourself: am I enjoying what is, or mourning what should be, and missing over it what is already here? This cross matures when your ideal lights up the present instead of devaluing it.

How you live your cross

Deliberately shape small moments of beauty in your day. They are the garden you get to tend, not a distant place to be reached first. And when the longing for the perfect makes you discontent, return to a simple, sensual pleasure.
