Sepharial

“A man and woman standing hand in hand, looking with affection towards one another.”

This denotes a person of an amiable and pleasant disposition, friendly to all, and beloved of his kinsmen. One who desires peace and concord, and who will meet with success through the intervention of some female friend. It is a degree of AMITY.

Charubel

“A battle field where two contending armies are engaged in deadly conflict.”

This prefigures a life of conflict. Such an one can scarcely avoid being a military person. Should he pass through an engagement, he would be killed. If he does not become a soldier, he must be watchful over his own conduct, or he will come to grief.

Kozminsky

“The goddess Venus holding out her hands to a wounded soldier, who is painfully trying to”

reach her. Denotes sympathy. Many times will the native stumble and fall by the way, but ever will there be a bright light before him to dispel the darkness of the night and to dissipate his fears. The mind is aspiring, but to reach its ideal, pain and struggle are involved. The native must not falter, for very nigh unto him is his hope—a little sacrifice and endeavor will unite him to it. It is a symbol of Upraising.
