Note to self: Red Book of Westmarch–YouTube video schnap-schot  ;)
p. 266     AN ASTROLOGICAL MANDALA, by Dane Rudhyar (1973)

PHASE 327 (AQUARIUS 27º): AN ANCIENT POTTERY BOWL FILLED WITH FRESH FLOWERS.

KEYNOTE: The importance of traditional skills and artistic values deeply rooted in man's instinctive feelings as frames of reference for man's most authentic emotions.

This symbol contrasts  with the preceding one just as personal reticence and a simple love of natural beauty contrast with the rush, bawdiness and intellectual efficiency characterizing so much of our modern existence. Violets have often been considered symbols of modest and humility–values which were understood to be the mark of true womanhood…long ago, it seems!

In this symbol we see pictured the dependence of the purest feelings of natural living upon the traditions within which they find their most adequate and effective setting. It is a symbol of DELICACY OF FEELING.
