Unukalhai
Unukalhai
Unukalhai, Alpha Serpentis at the serpent's heart near 22 degrees of Scorpio, holds the serpent's old double nature. Robson ties it to chronic disease, accidents, immorality, and danger, but also to success in war and politics for those who master its force. Brady reads the serpent as poison and medicine, the power that wounds or heals by the same edge. It is intense and demands conscious handling.
