Moving away
Once the object of the relationship is over, the attempt at separation arrives. Moving away from what has already been fulfilled gives way to farewell. In the farewell there is an orderly retreat.
In the Mandala of Emotions moving away belongs to the family of desires. Moving away and approaching are two brothers with antagonistic paths in terms of intention. Knowing how to move away and approach is the key to any lasting relationship. The flip side of walking away is the will. In this case the power decides whether or not to take the object, while moving away implies separating from the object. A beautiful retreat is as glorious as a gallant rush.Emotions are in balance or not. This depends on the mode, the occasion and the duration of the emotion. Walking away when it's balanced leads to success, but when it's too much or too little, it leads to failure.
