Bamboo 1
Symbol: Peacock
This is the first tile of the first suit in a Mahjong set. Overall, it represents success. However it also warns that success sometimes turns to arrogance, which can lead to loss of everything that has been gained. The Peacock tile also suggests a change in your life path is forthcoming.
The Southern Tiles represent current and near-future influences that are affecting The Nucleus.

Circles 7
Symbol: Insect
