The journey in fragments, cling! clang! You are split off from your place and grasp disaster. Your journey is falling apart before it has begun because you are grasping at all the little details. Do you really want to act like this? Do not stay in mourning for the past. Your melancholy and pain are in danger of destroying you. Organize yourself and set off. There will be excellent results. You are connected to a creative force.
