The drawing is of a person on a horse holding an upraised club riding towards a disk with a dot in the middle ready to do battle. This dot indicates the disk is meant to represent the eye with its inner pupil. This then is the Druid dark new moon and eye pupil god Su. In older texts he is the source god of all the non-fate motion powers (emotion and astrological). At this time he is only the god of the astrological powers which have been associated with the powers of fate (hence the evil eye). Beside the horse is a dog in the lower left.

This text is promoting the use of human emotion magic in preference to the astrology magic of Su to enable life powers. Emotion magic will activate the life powers while astrology magic will only open up the curses of fate (revelations) from the astrological night sky.
