A WOMAN ENTERING A CONVENT
RETREAT OR ESCAPE?
GENERAL INTERPRETATION
Indicated here is a need to immerse oneself in a situation that
focuses one's senses upon some more meaningful reason for being, Great train robbery- Mo
be it in a religious, artistic, scientific or some other specific field of
endeavour. This Symbol can sometimes mean that you have been
trying too hard to get the answer you want (possibly from the Oracle),
and that it is now best that you withdraw from it for a while.
KEEP FOCUSED ON …your sense of fate or destiny that guides
you and which ignores everything but your inner calling. …taking
time out somewhere quiet or sacred for long enough for matters to
return to normal, or to get the 'call'.
WATCH OUT FOR …an ostensibly worthy course of action (or
non-action) which is really an escape from facing life. …hiding away
(your) female (or male) sexuality, because of a mistaken sense of
shame.
LOVE/RELATING/SOCIAL
You or another could be in need of getting away from the
emotional pressures that a relationship can so easily put one under.
You or they could be there already, which could be posing a problem,
such as not finding it easy to relate in the ordinary way. There may
also, or alternatively, be the need to make contact with some spiritual
dimension to your love or social life, requiring you to look at the
deeper motivations and reasons where relationships are concerned.
KEEP FOCUSED ON …retreating from the 'slings and arrows' of
emotional or social interaction – but only long enough to gain a new
perspective and heal any wounds. ...returning to a state of
innocence, possibly though a means such as Tantra or Taoism.
WATCH OUT FOR …avoiding social or emotional interaction to
the point that you become progressively more ill at ease in these
areas.
MONEY/WORK/CREATIVITY
If
your question is concerned primarily with this, the material
sphere of life, then the Oracle is asking you to consider whether you
should withdraw completely from whatever you are considering, or, to
resist retreating into obscurity for fear of failure or because you feel
you cannot hack it. The material world is hard because it has no time
for those who are half in or half out of it. So either…
KEEP FOCUSED ON …giving your fullest commitment, energy
and involvement to whatever you are concerned about, or, take a
back seat, possibly with a view to withdrawing completely.
WATCH OUT FOR …being neither one thing or the other
materially or spiritually minded – that is unless the business
concerned is expressly to do with some kind of creative dedication or
spiritual devotion. But then again, be careful that this is not just an ill
conceived escape from reality.
KARMA/ATTITUDE/HEALTH
It is worth considering that historically the most common lives that
have some drama to them are those of soldier, prostitute, slave or
nun/monk. This Symbol is obviously referring to the last of these and
how such a reclusive period is now affecting how you live now. Then
again, it could simply be saying that it is a good time to go on some
sort of spiritual retreat or find sanctuary. With regard to these…
KEEP FOCUSED ON …how it affects one being out of circulation
for some time. …what caused or is causing you to retreat or escape
from the world. If it is or was purely for the positive purpose of getting
closer to God or your inner being, then well and good, but if it was or
is merely to escape what you could not or cannot handle, then…
WATCH OUT FOR …negative or judgmental feelings about life,
for they are rooted in what you fear or feared.
'Many people believe that they are attracted by God or by Nature,
when they are only repelled by man'
The Moon at 24° Capricorn, with the Sabian Symbol “A Woman Entering a Convent,” reflects the Great Train Robbery’s DISCIPLINES, SECRETIVE execution (Capricorn retreat) and its profound public impact (MC, North Node). The gang’s “convent-like” WITHDRAWAL into a meticulous plan aligns with the symbol’s FOCUS on a higher purpose, but the caution against ESCAPING reality highlights their overconfident mistakes (square to Jupiter in Aries, 12th house).
