Charubel's image for this degree is architecture without people: a lofty building, with nave and massive pillars on each hand. The word nave places it, since a nave is the long central walkway of a church, the part built for the congregation rather than the clergy, and the pillars stand to either side the way they do when a visitor is walking down the middle looking up. The image is therefore a point of view as much as a structure, the experience of moving through something far larger, older and heavier than oneself, held up by supports one did not raise.
Read against the second degree of Capricorn the picture states the sign's deepest respect, which is for structure that outlasts its builders, and adds the correction the sign periodically needs, that the massive pillars exist for the sake of the open walkway between them, not the other way round. Institutions, in other words, are for passage; the stone serves the procession. The shadow readings are two. One is the visitor dwarfed into passivity, a life spent admiring an aisle it never walks to the end of. The other belongs to the builders, weight added for magnificence until the building is all pillar and no path. On a natal Saturn or Midheaven this degree tends to mark people drawn to great structures, churches, firms, laws and disciplines, and its counsel keeps the proportions straight: honour what bears the load, and keep walking down the middle of it toward whatever the far end holds.
