The Passion

The Vulnerable One

Sign

Leo

Role

The Experience of the Body

The Passion is within the body, the container for the mind. The seeker uses passion as endless energy and willpower.

Want to use the natural powers of passion. Want to master the strength.

The poem

Lust betrays, and eros fades,
but passion stays when rules decay.
The body knows what minds delay—
to burn is simply how we stay.
Ropes snap loose, the breath comes fast,
the moment real, the bindings past.
Heat remains when want gives way;
and with that strength the fire stays.
