Greater Fortune
The Geomancer is connected to the earth beneath their feet. With simple hand gestures, the Geomancer plants seeds for a bountiful fortune.
Latin for “greater fortune”, Fortuna Major is a highly favorable figure in almost all matters. It is an extremely good sign when Fortuna Major appears as the first figure in a geomantic shield. It promises of longterm success and great fortune. The presence of Fortuna Major does not represent easy success, but rather the success of hard work and dedication. Fortuna Major reminds us that fortune does not come without hard work. The formation of dots resembles an upright goblet. Fortuna Major is strengthened in the 5th house and weakened in the 11th.
