“Objectivity cannot be equated with mental blankness; rather, objectivity resides in recognizing your preferences and then subjecting them to especially harsh scrutiny — and also in a willingness to revise or abandon your theories when the tests fail (as they usually do).”

Stephen Jay Gould

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: If you find yourself getting frustrated, perhaps you need to become more objective. Even if you’ve suffered a rejection, consider that it may be a form of protection working in your best interest so that something better can take its place. Perhaps a third party is instrumental in helping you see the truth of this situation. You’re being challenged to step outside of your subjective experience to better understand the real cause of behavior in a situation where someone may have acted in a hurtful or dishonorable way toward you. It’s likely related to their childhood experiences or lessons from other lives. This might be a chance to develop compassion and respond differently so that you can release a pattern and move on.
