Lenormand de Saint-Ouen
Le Lys
The Lily
Virtue's Position
The Quatrain
Au-dessus de ta tête, Ta vertu, le lys fête. Mais placé au bas, Gare le faux pas.
The lily honors integrity when elevated; below, it warns that dignity can be compromised by one careless step.
The Archetype
The same integrity is celebrated when held high and put at risk when it slips low. Jung's Self is sensitive to exactly this kind of context — virtue isn't a fixed possession, it's something carried well or carried carelessly, and position matters.
A Practice For Today
Carry one value you hold with a bit more visible care today than you usually bother to.
