How they combine

The backstage strategist stepping into the light: the Lion's glow with the Snake's calculus — power and strategy in one frame. The gift is "a born operator" — scene and bottom cards held in the same hand. The risk is one demanding daylight, the other the darkroom: the Lion wants everything said aloud, the Snake wants the cards kept face down.

The Snake side

Its strengths are deep insight, calm self-command, and the focus to research to the bottom; its weaknesses are wariness and concealment — keeping its own counsel so that even intimates guess wrong. Depth is the gift; trust is the assignment.

The Leo side

Its strengths are generosity, responsibility, and the warmth that lights up everyone nearby; its weaknesses are dependence on face and applause, and a gloom heavier than most when ignored. Its pride is both engine and soft spot.
