Sepharial
“A woman seated in an altitude of grief, her clothes disordered and her hair unkempt, holding some faded flowers in her hands; among the flowers are lilies and roses.”
It indicates a person of fateful inclinations and strong passions, whose life will be subject to the influence of the opposite sex, and who, if not extremely cautious in those relations, will suffer injury and perhaps disgrace. It points to one of weak will, but strong feelings which are apt to over-rule reason and experience. It is a degree of SPOLIATION.

Charubel
“A deep shaft descending into the earth, and right overhead a balloon.”
This denotes an all-round person, one conversant with the different strata in the formation of the crust of our globe. In the meantime the native will wake himself familiar with those graduated densities in the atmosphere that are found at different altitudes. He will be a scientist of some note.

Kozminsky
“A creeping plant—worms eating at the root— growing over a rustic summer-house.”
Denotes one who inclines to a quiet and simple life away from the din and struggle of cities. Of a kind and trusting nature, he may leave his vital affairs too in the hands of others, and thus risk danger, trouble, and losses. He will be wise to look to his affairs and to those he trusts to attend to them. It is a symbol of Entrusting.
