The Lunar Mansions

☾Al-Na'am

Lunar mansion 20 · the ostriches

The twentieth lunar mansion, the Moon's station among the Ostriches of Sagittarius.

Al-Na'am is the ostriches crossing the desert, the mansion of thirst and the long walk toward water. It reflects the endurance in you that keeps moving toward a need not yet met, trusting the far spring more than the near mirage.
