Reflection

Light
Allowing yourself to be moved by the plight of others Feeling strong emotions Possessing unusual sympathy or empathy Trusting your feelings to guide you Calling on psychic abilities Achieving unity with Spirit

Shadow
Becoming so caught up in matters of Spirit, you become detached from the world Allowing empathy to disable you (instead of inspire action) Using psychic abilities to wield covert influence Wallowing in emotionalism, sentiment, or self-pity

Symbolism

Beautiful, fair, dreamy--as one who sees visions in a cup. This is, however, only one of her aspects; she sees, but she also acts, and her activity feeds her dream.
