Conservation of Highest Values
Conservation fulfils the promises inherent in Temperance and Excellence, marking the completion of Propriety’s moment. The onset of Conservation signals the first wholeness in Reason’s journey. It is the realisation that virtues must be preserved and nurtured, not just acquired.
Seven, the quintessence of Life, embodies this virtue, turning division towards the greatest Good possible. Change is constant, Conservation is cherishing what is best in all we have done, most especially internally. It encourages stewardship, the careful management of resources, both spiritual and the material (though also ultimately for the spirit) and ensures that these strengths can endure through time.
