Sun at Pisces 13: A SWORD, USED IN MANY BATTLES, IS NOW IN A MUSEUM
The Sabian Symbol for the Sun today is one of realising when to fight and when not to… it can signal realisations of putting too much energy into situations that don’t reward, but just lead to problems or alienation or downright injury…. it can be saying to just stop the battle… just let go… Pisces 13: A SWORD, USED IN MANY BATTLES, IS NOW IN A MUSEUM
This Symbol shows the ability, or the need, to be able to know when to stop battling in life, when to lay down one’s “Sword” and take up a higher position that reflects a more intelligent or spiritual way of being in the world. Sometimes, when reminded of the battles of the past, we are influenced towards actions that ensure peace. We are uplifted by the symbolic memory of past deeds of valor, although the stings of defeat may also be part of the story. You may find yourself faced with the choice of fighting or reasoning which is confused by your lack of training or experience in the ways of “Battle”. Don’t go down with the ship. It helps to lay down one’s ‘sword’ – not in order to surrender, but to stop the ‘warring’
