GEMINI 7
A Table comes to Life and Runs Away.
The inner story is fanciful, full spectrum open, unformed. Outward events do not match the inner story. A question arises where to put the emphasis--what do you believe? If the way things go outwardly is all, the spirit is crushed. If caprice and whimsy contain treasures, there is room here for HOPE and for permission to be. But you cannot depend upon caprice and whimsy. So the battle rages between doubt and conviction. Doubt knows that it never works out as you planned. Conviction answers that it is entirely up to you and you will get what you asked for.
BELIEF in oneself and one’s plans can lead to achieving desired outcomes.

Gemini 7: An old-fashioned well
Inner resource...
"The Well" throughout human history, is a core image... one of which human being could not survive without.
Think of it in terms of needs. The well is the source of water. Without water, human habitation is impossible. So, in the Chinese classic of change, the I Ching, it says, "The city can be moved, but the well cannot."
Another way to think about this is to consider how much more important the well is to human being than 'fashion'. It really does not matter if the well is old-fashioned, or a new-fangled high-speed, digitally compressed with analogue fenders and metallic avocado spouts featuring heat sensor pressure control.
What matters is a direct relationship to water.
The well is also an image of repair, renewal, nourishment and rejuvenation. It is a symbol of a centre to which one must return after venturing to the edge of the world. Everything, in human reality, is organized around the well.
Other things can wield a strong attraction for human interest. but, in the end, if one ventures too far away from the source of life, one in dangerous territory.

Gemini 7. Poetry which sounds beautiful but makes no logical sense. (Omega Symbol) Interacting/Sensitive
(Degree Angel: Eyael (AY-ya-EL) Great Expectations, Transformation to the Sublime)
Logic, which is so compelling and seems so set and clear can be a powerful illusion, for there is always a higher logic, or a different logic which we haven’t taken into account. You are aware of this, and know that what people most need is to listen to the music of their soul and the boundless joy it evokes. This is the guiding force of life.
The Chandra Symbol for this degree is “A table comes to life and runs away.” We sometimes try to make something serve a purpose it doesn't want to serve. Words, too, have a purpose, but in the Omega Symbol they are freed from that purpose to roam in the imagination. This degree is all about giving up expectations and agendas and either letting things be what they will be, or experimenting with them in new, often unorthodox and unexpected ways.
