For this image, a great Warrior blends both Dia de los Muertos make-up with the older tradition of an Aztec or Mayan headdress and shield. The plumes from Warrior of Scepter's headdress and face paint are the color of flame, the color associated with the fire element, and show his passion. The Warrior's face bears the confidence, determination, and his quest for success. He holds an Aztec shield covered with the symbol of the fiery and magical salamander, the circular design moving forward against all obstacles and danger. Be mindful that Warrior of Scepters can express himself as an 'act first, think later' type of person. In your pursuit for action, you may be impulsive and impatient.

Find a way to focus your energy and enthusiasm on the activities that will move you closer to your goal.
