Sepharial
“An ancient hieroglyphic manuscript with a retort and crucible upon it.”
This symbol is the index of one who will essay the Magnum Opus or great work of alchemical science. It may be that he will attempt the solution of some scientific problems, and in such would be successful beyond his belief. On the other hand its scope may be restricted to the world of commerce, or even extended to the spiritual world, so that the transmutation of the gross and external body of the soul may be effected. In any case the native will be a deep researcher and will study ancient methods and principles with benefit to himself and advantage to the world. He will begin a new school of thought and his mind will be set upon reforms in the scientific and philosophic worlds. It is a degree of RENOVATION.

Charubel
“A ferry boat in the act of taking people across as a wide deep stream.”
Denotes one who will be a guide and a teacher of the public; he or she will prove of much service to others, far more than to himself.

Kozminsky
“The head of a goat with the solar disc between its horns.”
Denotes an extremely sensitive and impressionable nature of romantic and strange fancies. If the sun is afflicted at birth or if the moon is changing from old to new, the native is liable to obsession or evil company, which threaten his honor, and he will have to seek help from more positive minds. But if the orbs be in good aspect and the moon be elevated, strong, advancing from new to full, advancement will be the native’s destiny. It is a symbol of Perplexity.
