Humanity's enduring works. Genius across the surface of the globe that spans eras and language barriers. Creative research of a bygone era or civilization. Achievement based on past greatness. Proudly standing on the shoulders of giants or struggling to fill large shoes. Antecedents, descendents, spiritual ancestry. Traditional knowledge, archetypal principles, re-evocation of the past. Grandeur and history, days long gone, the panorama of time, ancient wonders. Power of the past coming through and affecting people in today's world. Any large edifice from another era, particularly those that inspire awe or hold mystery as to how or why they were built. Monuments from past civilizations that provide wonderful puzzles as to how great the human mind and how vast human accomplishment can be. Something that makes a huge impression, something that won't easily be forgotten. A situation so big or so old, it can hardly be approached. Magicians and prophets. Secret messages or tricks of perception. Decoding mysteries from the past. The immensity of all that remains unknown.  A mind given to the study of literature, history and other intellectual pursuits. Scientific taste cultivated and trained to be useful but in a somewhat odd way. A live wire imagination, harnessed by a grand project. Prolific writers who combine science and invention with romance and creativity. Magnetic and intense intellect. Creative capacity, penetrative power and clairvoyant gifts. Engaged in too many things at one time and unable to relate to their given time and space. Racing thoughts. Aloofness through perceived superiority. Ideas so all encompassing it seems impossible to manifest thoughts and vision. Working for the benefit of future generations. Departure from the beaten track.
