What happened in a past life
In a past life you went through loneliness and a separation from the one you loved that was not your choice, perhaps because your relatives would not accept your partner. You could not be with your beloved and never loved anyone else for the rest of your life.
This key rests on the energy of conception, fertility and the feminine principle. In the past you may have been a wise woman who served people or science, with the ability to heal. If you took part in conflicts and wars in the past, karmic lessons await you around family problems and relationships with women.
The arcana of the 9-12-3 tail

Where to start
- Do not lean on old experience and do not shut down after failures. Open your heart to love, stay open to the Universe, and do not fear new relationships after a break-up. See a separation as a release and be ready to let new experience in.
How this tail shows in your own chart

How this code comes about
The third number is point D (the sum of the day, month and year of birth), here 3. The first number is D + the centre of the chart, here 9; the second is D + the first number, here 12. That gives the code 9-12-3.
