Symbols*: The condors survey an ancient landscape dominated by ruins and swords. The abandoned swords have been left to rust indefinitely and are now firmly entrenched in the aged soil Ancient markings signify the indelible nature of past lives. Roots grow amid the grass and rocks of the forgotten land. One of the condors observes the symbols still visible on a sword. It does not know how to remove the sword from the stone so that it can decipher potential messages more easily. The three condors represent birth, deaht, and rebirth. They hover above the deserted plains for clues into the past lives that once occupied this terrain. They have forgotten to look beyond the confines of the sword-littered environment.

Description*: You are experiencing an inability to move forward and to explore other areas for potential answers. Your limitations spill over into other facets of your being. You may become too focused on a particular aspect of an issue at the expense of looking at the whole picture. If you cannot break patterns of redundancy and narrowmindedness, it may be time to sit back and wait until the inflexible tethers loosen and allow you to explore other avenues for future objective analysis.

Keywords: Inflexibility, Self-imposed restrictive thinking

Thoughts/Points to Ponder: Whenever self-doubt comes to play, you can always see it immediately – it reflects very strongly to the outside world. That is exactly what I see here.
