The fourteenth arcane of the tarots shows us the angel of universal life pouring the vital fluid from a silver urn into a gold one. With its beneficial liquid, it revives the flower at its feet, about to wither.

It, therefore, represents the blade of healing, of regeneration, in close analogy with the zodiac sign of Aquarius. Indicates evolution, happy transformation, progress, future, serenity, and spirituality. The sentimental life consolidates, and reaches stability; the individual lives in harmony with the environment which shows him great solidarity and often achieves perfect, faithful, and solid unions.

It promises completed projects, creativity, prudence, favorable conditions for new businesses; calm, trust, serenity, self-healing, balance achieved. It represents a very good omen, a positive influence. It heralds a birth, a positive unexpected event, a realized hope; friendship, sympathy, social movements; humanitarian feelings; charity.

The fourteenth arcanum is linked to politics, elections, mass media, electronics, and the telephone. It corresponds to winter, the month of February, the elements air and earth, the planets Mercury, Uranus, Saturn, the signs of Virgo and Scorpio, Capricorn, and Aquarius. Indicates a parental figure, a loved one, a psychologist, an astrologer, an advertising employee, an original and unpredictable person.

In the negative: this arcanum symbolizes all that is extreme; a wrong conversion, an unsuccessful or missed change; a deal cut short; sentimental oppositions, tensions, misunderstandings, divorce, excesses, prodigality or avarice; selfishness, dryness, coldness; projects that run aground, stasis, instability, sterility and conflicts. Physically it corresponds to nervous and circulatory disorders.
