Paramour - Love’s Scar Attraction and temptation an aspect of one’s life may have to be sacrificed; lifestyle may be sacrificed and a relationship gained (or vice versa). One potential partner may be chosen while another is turned down. Whatever the choice, it should not be made lightly, as the ramifications will be lasting.

XX RESURRECTION ASTROLOGICAL RELATION PLUTO m SCORPIO m FIRE
Z h N Resurrection Of All God’s Children Resurrection calls on souls to begin a new life starting right after a release or breakthrough from a certain kind of Hell where metamorphosis — shape-changing occurs.

In fact, the substance of these beings has never changed, despite all attempts to undo it. The unity of body and soul is indestructible. Selfhood cannot be undone, though mythological or magical transition to try to get at the meaning of the body-soul nexus is a method that one may adopt on other occasions.
