The kestrel hangs almost still in the wind before it strikes, so tradition reads it as stillness in the middle of motion. It stands for poise, quiet attention and the right moment.

My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
