Charubel
“A white oval figure on a very black background. The background contains no forms or shapes of any kind.”
This is an important degree: whoever may have this degree on his or her ascendant will be unfortunate through marriage. If a female, should she ever become a mother, the labor will be attended with much suffering, and possibly death. A very negative person, open to evil influences.
