Acrab
Acrab
Acrab (Graffias), a claw of the Scorpion, is of the nature of Mars and Saturn. It marks penetrating research, intensity, and the ability to dig into hidden and difficult matters, with a malefic edge to guard against: malice, crisis, or sudden adversity if the darker currents run unchecked. It rewards depth used in service of truth.
