Fortune smiles and pleasant surprises will come to you unexpectedly. Something positive is on the way. Something that is also deserved. You will receive rewards, perhaps a promotion at work, recognitions, prizes or gifts. There is hope and joy. There is promises fulfilled and dreams fulfilled. There is grace and forgiveness.
Perhaps some kind of association is brewing. If so, you are advised to maintain your individuality within that union. Remember that true union is achieved when two beings form a team, but each one retains its own singularity.

Gebo tells us associations are possible, understanding improves and agreement is effective. In that sense, agreements take into account the needs of the parts. Different factors join and they develop a new strength or entity, even old relationships start to communicate again. Encounter, either renewal of old ties or the beginning of others, are practically inevitable.
The answer to why Gebo, refers to the fact that the conditions to get to an agreement, to make a pact or to do some business are great; they just can not be better, because all parts� possibilities are balanced. The needs of each factor, with its tendency, lie towards one common point, where they coincide; so, they need each other. That is to say, because of a specific reason, they meet each other and that is why they can raise their interests.
Gebo states that it is important to look for points of coincidence and make an agreement and associations, look for partners and help to go ahead. If our choice is to resume old relationships, the action will be advantageous as well. In summary, we have to encourage cooperative work or group undertaking better than isolated ones.
It helps to go back to one�s infancy, purity and original ideals once more. It is about not being sophisticated, difficult, and this way one can get to simple rules in life. The end is to get back happiness and not to deny success, if we accept the challenge to turn daily actions into a celebration.
Gebo leads us into a moment of meeting, union and coincidences. It is a period of balance, and equality and shared responsibilities, to some extent. It is also an important moment when friendship prevails and sharing ideas is advantageous. In other cases, it may refer to noon or midnight, the half part of the week, month or the year; it still can talk about the middle point of one�s life. The moment Gebo talks about is the one in which, eventually, one share hands.
Gebo makes reference to crossroads, or a place to stop by where people coming from different places get to know each other. It may be a place for private or public gatherings, or a place where the main cause to join is solidarity. Some examples are a fair, a registry office, a notary�s office, a place in the middle of two other points at the same distance, o a place of gathering.
Gebo mixes with someone who is liable to reconcile and be unbiased in his judgments, but most of all, this person is fair in his actions and he never avoids commitments. Therefore, it is not a radical person; he likes to negotiate instead. This person has great abilities to summarize; he is practical and he always goes to the point. He can act as a mediator; he may be a judge; he may be someone who is married or has a couple or a business relationship.
