In 1 and 2 all lines changing
01.all A flight of dragons appears without a head. Auspicious. Real creativity surpasses everything human. Only if not one human thought or wish does exist, creation is possible. Only pure energy and the absolute moment can incite matter.
02.all Harvest: everlasting determination. Earth is the field that supports and brings to life everything, all beings. She has no action at all of her own, and that frees the way for creation and energy. When everything is receptivity, nothing stands between man and universe or man and god. If man can merge with a thought, an action, an ideal, then nothing can stop him.
