Shustah Black 13 represents unconscious desires and motivations based on the individual’s Karmic blueprint. Wherever The Card of Destiny falls on the Astrological Wheel, it indicates that the area is governed by destiny.

Destiny as represented by Black 13 is not a fixed sequence of events that is inevitable and unchangeable. Destiny is the direct result of the choices and decisions made throughout one’s life, as well as the unconscious motivations governed by the karmic influences of previous incarnations.

The Card of Destiny brings the energy of the moon to bear in Houses of the Zodiac. The moon represents change as it passes through its four phases, and change is to be expected in whichever House this card influences.
