Citrinitas · 4/7 refined

The seven spheres
- BindingMoonThe force of growth and waning — the involuntary swelling and shrinking that follows every external tide
- BindingMercuryMachination — the habit of bending intelligence into cunning and contrivance
- RefinedVenusClear-sighted love — loving what a thing is, not what it promises
- RefinedSunHumility — shining on all things without claiming the credit of light
- BindingMarsReckless audacity — headlong collision that mistakes impatience for courage
- RefinedJupiterGenerosity — letting abundance flow through oneself without damming it
- RefinedSaturnTruth — looking limits in the face without being deceived by them
