Rasalhague

Rasalhague

Rasalhague, the head of the Serpent-Bearer Ophiuchus, is of the nature of Saturn and Venus. It marks healing and the handling of what is toxic, medicine and poison, the balance between order and the dangerous, and the capacity to work with the very things that can harm. It rewards the healer who can face the poison.
