It’s at the point when the last light of the reflective light of the moon is waning. The Alchemical stage of Albedo (Self Reflection) is being driven into darkness as we move into the Nigredo which is a time of endings as well as potential new beginnings whose colors surround the darkening moon. Behind the rose bud ‘in potentia' lies the coiled snake that has the ability to shed its skin and be reborn. But it also can be lethal. First there are the fierce winds of destruction coming from that which is hidden in the shadows and therefore not realized.
