The Lunar Mansions

☾Al-Qalb

Lunar mansion 18 · the heart

The eighteenth lunar mansion, the Moon's station at Antares, the Heart of the Scorpion.

Al-Qalb is the burning heart of the Scorpion, the mansion of the fixed center. It reflects the core loyalty around which your life turns — the thing you will defend at cost — and asks you to keep that fire warm without letting it scorch what it means to protect.
