28th degree of Aquarius
Sabian symbol
“A tree felled and sawed to ensure a supply of wood for the winter.”
Knowledge and skill used in its natural surroundings for the satisfaction of vital basic needs.
Sepharial
“A cup, a pack of playing cards, and dice.”
This symbol denotes a person of dissipated and irregular life, whose weakness for wine and gambling is likely to lead him into sore difficulties and many excesses. His mind will be addicted to the pursuit of fortune by adventitious means, so that while he may succeed in attaching himself to others of like propensity and habits, he will lack even their confidence, and failing, will lose their adherence also. Thus, unless he shall elect to follow the paths of simple industry and patient toil in the ordinary walks of life, he will come to ruin and will be forced to pick up a precarious livelihood in the, byways of social activity. It is a degree of SPOLIATION.

Kozminsky
“A spire on top of a pyramid, at the base of which is a horse with a manuscript in his mouth.”
Denotes one born for great deeds, aspiring and energetic. His work will travel far and will be of a strong and reformative character, which will meet with the usual opposition afforded to such works amongst a certain caste. He must never stay. Ever with the symbol before his eyes must he continue his way, for victory is sure. It is a symbol of Reformation.
