1953. Elimination of Stalin Kolkovsky Veniamin

Chapter 18 September 1952: So what happened?

Having understood what Beria and his team wanted, we will complete our historical retreat and return to the autumn of 1952, when events finally came to their natural conclusion.

On September 22, 1952, Chou En-Lai left Moscow ( Ledovsky A.M. The USSR and Stalin in the fate of China. P. 175). Meanwhile, the transfer of troops as part of Operation Putyatin was approaching its final stage. For example, on September 4, the very day when Beria, as we remember, wrote in his diary that “things are going well with the North Korean comrades,” nuclear charges for anti-ship guided missiles were delivered to Port Arthur. However, even earlier, on July 30, enemy UFO drones spotted the latest, newly tested Soviet R-5 missiles in the Far East. In August, Stalin instructed A.S. Yakovlev development of the first Soviet helicopter. And on September 8, the Leader of the Nations signed a decree on the construction of the first nuclear submarine in the USSR.

There were also measures to “strengthen the rear.” Thus, on August 10, 1952, the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and the head of the Soviet Information Bureau during the Great Patriotic War, Lozovsky, and about 20 other cultural and artistic figures, who had nothing in common with Lozovsky except Jewish nationality. On August 12, Beria succinctly writes in his diary: “The Jewish Committee was shot” ( Beria L.P. We live with the atomic bomb! P. 156). Molotov's wife escaped with exile to Kazakhstan. There are serious reasons to think that if the “authorities” had waited another month or a month and a half to convict her, she would not have gotten off so easily. In any case, already on January 21, 1953, she was arrested again in exile, and this time she was not “prepared for treason,” but simply “treason” (Article 58, paragraph 1-a) ( Mlechin L. Death of Stalin. P. 83). From this, again, it is obvious: between August 12, 1952 and January 21, 1953, something happened, and something connected with Molotov...

And it was time to hurry! The Gulag Empire, for example, continued to be rocked by uprisings. So, on the same day when Stalin signed the decree on the construction of the first nuclear submarine, September 8, 1952, a prisoner uprising occurred in Ozerlag (near Taishet). It broke out after the murder of a prisoner in the ranks at the watch ( Solzhenitsyn A.I.. GULAG Archipelago. Part 5. Ch. eleven).

And everything seems to be going as it should. It’s clear that the other side isn’t wasting any time either. Here, in August, the Hawker long-range jet bomber was tested in Britain ( Zakoretsky K. Stalin's Third World War. P. 92). Thus, not only the USA, but also Britain have long-range jet bomber aircraft. But new types of superweapons are much more exciting, and not so much the developments themselves as the geography of where they were discovered. For example, in the summer of 1952, Norwegian pilots during an exercise discovered a crashed UFO on Spitsbergen, capable of flying at an altitude of over 160 km for a distance of over 30,000 km, with Russian letters on the measuring instruments.

Let us ask ourselves: whose apparatus was it - Soviet? But why then, given the fact that Spitsbergen was actually a co-ownership of the USSR and Norway, did the Soviet side not reach its crashed aircraft first? This is how M.B. poses the question. Gerstein ( Gershtein M.B. Secrets of UFO crashes. pp. 125–128). And we will try to guess: maybe these were not Soviet, but anti-Soviet Russians, who showed themselves hostile to Stalin and after (or even during) the war fled to some South America or New Swabia both from Stalin and from the allies from whom could they quite reasonably fear being handed over to Stalin for execution? And then our pilots noticed some strange devices in other areas of the Soviet Arctic and not only the Soviet Arctic - to the west, all the way to Greenland...

By the way, Russian emigrants also participated in the Korean War on the side of the Allies, and as emigrants of the first wave of 1917–1920. (for example, Russian Cossacks from Paraguay), and those who fled from the USSR during the Second World War. When the war in Korea began, an opinion began to spread among emigrants of both waves: this is not a local war, but part of a world war, with the help of which Bolshevism wants to extend its dominance throughout the whole world (Korean War 1950–1953 // Website http://www .histussr.ru/hussr-123–40.html). By the way, according to Solzhenitsyn, Korea and the prisoners of the Gulag Archipelago of the early 1950s were perceived as “Spain of the Third World War.” (GULAG Archipelago. Part 5. Chapter 2).

The Soviet leadership was especially alarmed by the fact that all this enemy activity was taking place in the polar latitudes, in the only direction from which only ground forces could reach America (for which the USSR was preparing). It is in these areas that the enemy is undertaking retaliatory activity. Reasonable fears arise: this is not without reason! But the enemy is even more active in the Far East...

On September 14, American reconnaissance aircraft discovered Soviet R-5 missiles manufactured for attack in the DPRK and the People's Republic of China. In general, lately they have been hovering around our military preparations like annoying flies - reconnaissance aircraft, UFO drones, pilot underwater and surface (the latter - especially in the Sea of ​​​​Japan) “saucers”. But on September 19, American aviation struck all strategic targets of North Korea with a blow unprecedented in strength since the spring of 1951 (Korean War 1950–1953 // Website http://www.histussr.ru/hussr-123–33. html). This is after it began to seem to many that the war was coming to an end. How is it? Something is happening!

The last event in this series completely infuriated the leader. On September 19–22, 1952, cone-shaped UFOs of the “Medusa Gorgon” type, at least four to five in number, were spotted over Yorkshire (Great Britain). It became clear that the enemy managed to commission several of these vehicles ahead of schedule (as already mentioned, the planned delivery of 100 of these vehicles was scheduled for January 1953).

By the end of the third week of September, there was no longer any doubt that the enemy had “sniffed out something” about our plans. Therefore, as soon as Chou En-Lai left Moscow, on the same day, September 22, a meeting of the top Soviet leadership was held.

Stalin summoned a new one, appointed instead of M.V. Zakharov, Chief of the GRU General Staff, Lieutenant General Mikhail Alekseevich Shalin, and directly posed the question to him: how could the enemy know about our preparations for Operation Putyatin? And if he doesn’t know, why is he so active? Shalin answered without batting an eyelid: they don’t know anything and can’t know, they just want to tickle their nerves just in case, they take it out of fear!

Stalin was not satisfied with the answer. He called Minister of State Security Ignatiev and asked him the same question: how could the enemies know about our preparations?

Ignatiev did not expect such a question. I was not prepared to answer it. After all, he was not a professional security officer (or rather, he stopped being one long ago; although they say that “there are no former security officers,” he apparently lost his skills over many years), before that (and after, as we will see) he worked almost exclusively for party positions. And at the head of the MGB, while remaining a civilian, he recruited a couple of dozen “party members” who headed a variety of departments of the MGB ( Mlechin L. Death of Stalin. pp. 155–157). This, by the way, never happened in the USSR either before or after...

And Ignatiev now laid out everything as it is. The leak comes, he said, from Foreign Minister Vyshinsky through State Counselor of the First Rank Volodin. The MGB established this for certain ten months ago, when Comrade Stalin was on vacation on the Black Sea. This is what they, Ignatiev, reported to Comrade Molotov, who then once again remained behind Stalin. “Didn’t Comrade Stalin, Comrade Molotov report this to you?” – Ignatiev finished.

Everyone present turned to Molotov. Or rather, to the place where he had just been sitting, with the intention of asking the same question: “is this really true?” But “man No. 2” was no longer there... While Stalin asked Ignatiev a question, and he answered it, Molotov quietly left the meeting.

Stalin, as if not seeing that he was gone, seemed to say to himself: “Well, I didn’t expect it from you, Vyacheslav...”

On the same day (or rather, at the same hour) Innokenty Volodin was arrested. The driver, who was driving him from the next diplomatic reception (some stranger gave him a lift, explaining that he was replacing an ordinary Foreign Ministry official who was supposedly ill), on the way for some reason responded to the request of a man (“an acquaintance”) who asked for a ride. An “acquaintance” sat down with Volodin in the back seat, thrust a piece of paper under his nose, asking him to read it, “otherwise he couldn’t see it in the dark” (in Volodin’s seat the light shone brighter). And the piece of paper turned out to be “an arrest warrant for Innokenty Artemyevich Volodin, born in 1908...” The driver turned out to be an MGB employee. And the “passenger” too. Right in his ceremonial diplomatic uniform, Volodin was taken to the internal prison at Lubyanka...

As for the rest, their fate, of course, was also decided. The fate of Molotov and Vyshinsky goes without saying. And the fate of Ignatiev: formally he did the right thing, but according to unwritten rules he was obliged to check through his own channels whether it was reported to Stalin himself! So the Leader decided that he was an amateur (“to say the least,” as Comrade Stalin once said on a similar occasion)! Actually, the game “both ours and yours” cost him dearly because it was revealed somewhat ahead of time. Now Ignatiev was doomed both in the event of Stalin’s victory and in the event of the victory of his opponents: after all, he had revealed their conspiracy, at least partially (he only said about Vyshinsky, he simply did not know for sure about the “four”). And in general, as we have seen, Beria was against the leading role of the party “in everything and everyone,” and even more so against the “clogging” of MGB personnel by leading party workers... So Ignatiev’s fate was in any case unenviable. The head of the MGB still had one hope: if Stalin was eliminated first, and then Beria... But it’s true: before March 1, 1953 (the last day that Stalin led the country), Beria should have received permission to arrest Ignatiev, but didn't have time ( Prudnikova E. 1953 Deadly games. M., 2011. P. 104). And after the murder of Stalin, Beria again wanted to arrest Ignatiev, but again he did not have time - he was arrested himself ( Mlechin L. Death of Stalin. pp. 312–313).

It is clear that the official accusations against high-ranking participants in the conspiracy were somewhat different: Stalin was unable to advertise a large-scale conspiracy in leadership circles. Molotov, in addition to vague hints that he, having remained in Moscow for Stalin, decided something wrong (K. Simonov writes that he never understood what the matter was, but perhaps Stalin deliberately expressed himself so vaguely) was accused , for example, that he either allowed or wanted to allow “the publication of bourgeois newspapers and magazines”, that he planned to “hand over Crimea to the Jews”, and also that he “informed all decisions of the Politburo to his wife” (the latter accusation , by the way, it was quite plausible taking into account the fact that the wife also held significant leadership positions).

Along the way, Mikoyan also came under fire for opposing the reduction of taxes on collective farmers. But it was time to reduce it! The terrible situation in agriculture by 1953 has already been mentioned; even Sergei Kremlev is forced to admit it. It is not clear after this why Mikoyan condemned Beria for refusing grain supplies to India ( Kremlev S. If Beria had not been killed... P. 50–51), but he was probably forced under Khrushchev or later...

Voroshilov was also declared an “English spy”... ( Mlechin L. Death of Stalin. pp. 78–80). However, he got less than the other two. “Immediately after the 19th Congress of the CPSU,” Khrushchev also testifies, “Stalin took the line to isolate Molotov and Mikoyan... He did not invite them anywhere, not to the dacha or to the apartment, not to the cinema, where they had previously gone together” (quoted from: Kostin A. Death of Stalin. What does Brezhnev have to do with this? P. 43).

And in Mikoyan’s memoirs there is an interesting episode. “Six months before the congress, in 1948 (?! - so in the text . - VC.) Mikoyan came to Stalin, who was vacationing in the south with Molotov. Stalin’s faithful secretary A. Poskrebyshev was also present at dinner at Stalin’s dacha. And suddenly, during lunch, the latter said: “Comrade Stalin, while you are resting in the south, Molotov and Mikoyan are preparing a conspiracy against you in Moscow.” The matter, as Mikoyan reports, almost came to a fight between two members of the Politburo and the Stalinist “slanderer” secretary, but the Leader turned everything into a joke: don’t pay attention, they say. It is clear, Mikoyan summarizes, that Poskrebyshev did not say this himself, it was “Stalin’s test for lice” (ibid., p. 77).

This story looks implausible as presented by Mikoyan, at least based on the dating of the event: “1948, six months before the congress,” but with a kind of reflected light it tells about what actually happened. Mikoyan, in fact, as always, correctly understood whose he would take, but this time he was in a hurry, or rather, he could not foresee what happened on September 22. That's why I had to pay with several months of fear of daily arrest.

Another thing is interesting: why weren’t all the culprits (except for the “small fry” Volodin) arrested immediately? In the old days (and even quite recently!) Stalin would undoubtedly have torn off their heads right away! Well, or at least arrested, never to be released! What happened now?

There can be only one answer: Stalin planned to hold a Plenum of the Central Committee after the congress, which was conceived as something like the February-March (1937) Plenum (at which, right after its end, the last remaining major oppositionists, Bukharin and Rykov, were arrested). And there, at the Plenum, accuse and arrest everyone! And Molotov, and Kaganovich, and Mikoyan, and Voroshilov, and Vyshinsky, and Ignatiev! It was in Molotov, Kaganovich, Mikoyan and Voroshilov, and not in Beria, Malenkov, Bulganin and Khrushchev, who joined them, that Stalin now saw enemies. Yes, after Ignatiev’s report at the meeting on September 22, it was difficult to expect a different reaction! Moreover, the Quartet had not yet done anything at that time.

Well, the rest of the old leaders – including the last “four” – could have been “finished” later. They, of course, also understood this. And it is logical that they subsequently fought to ensure that Stalin did not have any “later.”

But still, why not all at once? I believe that Stalin first needed to complete Operation Putyatin victoriously. And only then, on the wave of victory, deal with those who doubt and hesitate, not to mention outright “traitors.” And after that - with the rest of the old members of the Politburo. He devoted the next few days to this task...

On September 24, 1952, the small Japanese research vessel Kayo Maru (displacing 210 tons) with a crew of 22 people and nine (according to other sources - seven) scientists on board was approaching the recently emerged underwater volcano Mejin. On approaching the volcano, the ship stopped responding to radio call signs, and two or three days later, search ships and planes discovered wreckage at the site of the supposed death of the ship that clearly belonged to it. The schooner Kayo Maru is believed to have sank on September 24, 1952 at 12:30 local time.

The question, however, is why she died. Here is a description of the death of the ship as presented by a professional volcanologist: “The location indicated by the coordinates has been reached. The ship slows down... The underwater volcano lurks. And suddenly (this is especially typical for volcanoes - suddenly) a huge column of steam, gas, water splashes and pieces of pumice soars into the air; he picks up the ship like a piece of wood... No one saw how the Kayo Maru sank, but it is known for sure that it happened on September 24, 1952 at 12:30 a.m. "( Markhinin E.K.. Pluto chain. M., 1973. S. 193–194).

However, it is still very rare for volcanoes to explode like this - without warning, without an underground rumble, preliminary activity, etc. In addition, in official comments we always come across some omissions, such as, for example, a statement by the head of the Center for Meteorological Observatory of Japan that the schooner... “was sucked into the crater of an underwater volcano” ( Kushe L. Bermuda Triangle: myths and reality // Website http://www.gumer.info/bibliotek_buks/History/kusche/03.php). It is not entirely clear how this schooner could be “sucked” into the crater of an underwater volcano. Death from an explosion (official version) - this is understandable, but a ship cannot be “sucked in” either if the volcano is in a calm state, or if it erupts (suddenly or not) - in this case, the ship, on the contrary , can be thrown “like a piece of wood” far to the side by the impact of the wave caused by the explosion or, if it is close to the crater, thrown upward by the force of the explosion.

So what actually happened? In light of all that has been said above, it can be assumed that the ship was destroyed by the launch of a missile, and, most likely, a Soviet missile, probably the same R-5. In general, the place where the schooner died is located in suspicious proximity to places that the Soviet side later declared dangerous for navigation due to missile launches. And not so long ago, a North Korean missile, flying over Japan, fell somewhere in those places.

The question, of course, arises: why did the missile hit only one ship (there were no other reports of ships being lost in the Pacific Ocean at the end of September 1952), and not a military one, moreover, which was so far from the theater of military operations (the underwater volcano Medzin is located several hundred kilometers southeast of the coast of Japan).

There seems to be only one answer. Of course, more than one rocket was launched. A blow was struck against Japan, American troops in Korea, and the US Pacific Fleet with a large force (possibly hundreds of missiles). It’s just that little of it reached the targets, and what did reach hit the wrong targets. The system of protection against missile strikes, created with the help of those types of superweapons described above, worked...

Logically speaking, retaliatory strikes should have followed. However, all the books about the Korean War that I quoted above, as one, remain silent about the events of the end of September 1952. It seemed that nothing had happened, the war was coming to an end, and already from the summer of 1951, a certain military tension was maintained only by inertia. So in September 1952, nothing special happened.

And only occasionally do messages appear, mostly on exotic Internet sites, for example about the attack on the Soviet embassy in Pyongyang on September 29, 1952, when 400 bombs weighing 200 kilograms each were dropped, that is, they were bombed clearly with the intention of “destroying all living things.”

And here is an excerpt from the diary of US President Henry Truman for approximately the same days. Let me remind you that Truman was (by the standards of that harsh time, of course) a “dove”; a year and a half ago, he removed General MacArthur from command precisely for his proposal to transfer military operations to the territory of the PRC. And suddenly now he writes in his diary: “The correct decision should be a ten-day ultimatum informing Moscow that we intend to blockade the entire Chinese coast from Indochina to the Korean border and that we are going to destroy all military bases in Manchuria.” These are precisely the measures for which MacArthur lost his post. But then it’s even cooler:

“This means Moscow, St. Petersburg, Mukden, Vladivostok, Beijing, Shanghai, Port Arthur, Dairen (English name Dalian– Far . - VC.), Odessa, Stalingrad and all industrial enterprises in China and the Soviet Union will be wiped off the face of the earth! And further - something completely in the spirit not even of MacArthur, but of McCarthy (the senator whose name is associated with the “witch hunt” carried out in the United States at that time, a gross violation of democratic norms and principles, by American standards, of course) or Reagan model 1984 (“I have declared the USSR - the Evil Empire - outlawed, and the bombing will begin in five minutes”): “The Soviets themselves must decide whether they deserve to exist or not!” (quoted from: Korean War 1950–1953 // Website http://www.histussr.ru/hussr-123–26.html).

What happened to Truman in the seemingly calm September 1952, that the “dove” turned into a “hawk”? The conclusion suggests itself that these could only be some out of the ordinary actions on the part of the USSR.

If we assume that the USSR, somewhere in the last week of September 1952, attempted to strike Japan and US forces in East Asia, then everything falls into place: the mysterious death of the Kayo Maru, and Truman’s rage, and the threat (which had begun to be carried out) of a blockade of the entire coast of China, and terrible blows on the Soviet embassy... But this is only what was leaked onto the Internet. And if we assume that the threat to “destroy 78 cities” (not only Korean, but also Chinese and Soviet – let’s list again: “Moscow, St. Petersburg, Mukden, Vladivostok, Beijing, Shanghai, Port Arthur, Dairen, Odessa, Stalingrad (from the context it is clear that the list is far from complete, and it is clear that “all industrial enterprises” means many more cities . - VC.) refers to this time, if we recall what we said above about “the appearance of a total of 45,000 UFOs over several years,” which Marina Popovich wrote about and which appearance in such quantities overwhelmingly, as one can assume, refers by the fall of 1952, then we can get something like this.

Between September 22 and 24, 1952, a Soviet missile attack was carried out on South Korea, Taiwan, Japan and Alaska (possibly on the west coast of the United States itself), repelled mainly by attacks from the “Amazonian-New Swabian superweapon.” As part of this operation, on September 24, the Japanese research schooner Kayo Maru sank, which was hit by accident...

On the same day, September 24, the United States began a blockade of the coast of the DPRK and the PRC. At the same time, attacks are being carried out on a number of targets in the DPRK and the PRC, including Soviet diplomatic missions, and threats are being made from the mouth of the US President. True, so far on an unspoken level...

And Stalin wavered. Somewhere after September 24, but obviously no later than the 28th, he called it quits. Operation Putyatin was curtailed. Both sides decided not to advertise this event: the Americans also do not want war unless absolutely necessary, at least a significant part of the American establishment. It is enough that the USSR retreated. Four months later, Truman, ceding the White House to Eisenhower, will tell him: there is no need to touch the Russians unnecessarily, under the existing economic system they will collapse on their own in 30-40 years. And I wasn’t wrong! In short, there is no talk of peace negotiations and further concessions (yet), but it is clear to everyone involved in high politics that a blow to the enemy did not work out...

And now we come to the answers to the questions that were posed at the beginning of this book and in the books that I wrote before.

It is now clear why Stalin in August agreed to convene a party congress, which had not met since 1939. In fact, that the congress would take place this year, Beria was clear already in July - an entry in his diary dated July 15 says: “This year we will be without vacation, we will hold a Party Congress" ( Beria L.P. We live with the atomic bomb! P. 155). Stalin hoped that by the time it was held he would be able to defeat all his main rivals in the international arena, and under these conditions the Congress would become something like a “congress of victorious communism.” However, for reasons beyond the leader’s control, the “congress of winners” did not take place...

It is now clear why Stalin refused, as A. Avtorkhanov told us, to make a report at the congress, which “Malenkova had to take over.” Moreover, this was known at least a week before the Congress: from Beria’s diary it is clear that the fact that Malenkov would be the speaker was known no later than September 28, 1952. On this day, the following entry in the diary: “The report for the congress is almost ready. The keynote address will be given by Georgy (Malenkov . - VC.). There will be big changes." True, it is further added that the report is “discussed with Koba” (ibid., p. 159), but at the beginning of this book he posed the question: what kind of “discussion” was this? In what form? And was Stalin satisfied? Now it seems this question can be answered. As with the question: if Stalin was dissatisfied, then why did he endure it? It is clear that after what happened, the leader could no longer so easily and immediately deal with his opponents. “A defeated Caesar is no longer Caesar” - it was said long before these events!

Stalin lost his status as an unquestioned dictator. Without euphemisms, Stalin at this congress was “lowered” to the level of 25 years ago, when he was only “first among equals” - he had to fight for absolute power against numerous oppositions. It is clear that Stalin’s position was now much stronger than then: his authority allowed him even in this position to be terrible and deliver enormous blows to his enemies, but he was no longer an absolute dictator...

I have been collecting material for a long time for a project codenamed “The 20th century, year after year in color.” As is known, the first color photographs of almost modern quality began to be taken in Europe in 1901, but until the advent of “autochrome” records on the public market in 1907, color photography remained a rather rare phenomenon. Therefore, it is quite difficult to “cover” the first years of the 20th century with color photo and video material. But for other years, quite a lot of photographs have already been collected. Therefore, I decided to publish the years of the project in a free order. Let's start from the middle of the century, 1952. There are a lot of pictures and therefore it will have to be given in two parts: the USSR and the rest of the world.
So, what our country looked like in the last year of the Stalin era in color photographs.

I think that in the USSR in 1952, more than one thousand color photographs of excellent (even by our times) quality were taken. So what is presented above is only crumbs from the general image of the era, captured in color.

If readers have more color photographs of the USSR in 1952, send them and I’ll add them to the post.

1952 who? 1952 what animal? — Year of the Black Water Dragon. Probably every person knows about the Water Dragon. But not everyone thinks about the exact meaning and characteristics of the Water Dragon. People who were born in the year of the Water Dragon have good qualities that distinguish it from all other characteristics.

What kind of personality does this type of person have?

The personality of the Water Dragon is distinguished primarily by the manifestation of tender and reverent feelings. Such a person takes everything to heart. He is ready to do anything to overcome any obstacles - fear, anxiety, uncertainty. A person with the Water Dragon type lives here and now, not knowing the warnings of the future. He is distinguished by kindness and wonderful humor, but on the other hand, this person is strong in all directions. He will not stand as a pillar in a relationship - he will take everything upon himself by taking the first step.

How does the 1952 Water Dragon show itself in love?

The Black Dragon in love is significantly different from others. He only shows the good side of himself, but you shouldn’t stand in his way. A person will do what he considers necessary for himself.

This type of person shows warm and tender feelings towards a person in a sexual way. He shows care and loyalty until the end of his days.

In sexual relations, the Water Dragon has no equal. All this person does in love is successful development in the relationship.

This person does not need to be contradicted and constantly monitored - he is independent and is able to complete any work efficiently and on time. From others he demands full dedication to what they do.

But in no case should you think that this type is a cruel and treacherous person. He is friendly towards employees, showing sincerity and kindness. You can find a common language with him by discussing all matters.

Of course, every person has selfish motives and actions, but the Water Dragon shows a slight minimum in this. He respects and loves himself, while demanding that people surround him. But it is enough for him that this person is noticed and a conversation begins. The dragon does not like excessive attention, but occasionally wants it if desired.

The Black Dragon knows how to develop itself without making major mistakes. He also cares about those people who surround him. The Water Dragon loves to educate, and this will have a good effect on others.

The Black Dragon also has a small minus - it is a lot of activity in all directions. This energy has a bad effect on his life. Therefore, he should not get involved in everything that he immediately liked - after all, it is easier to leave unspent energy for later, and when the moment comes, he can get down to business with pleasure.

The main fear of the Water Dragon is the fear of some kind of failure. Be it failure at work, failure in relationships, failure in sports. If a person does not fight fear, this may negatively affect the further development of the Black Dragon’s personality. To do this, a person needs to overcome fear with all his might, and express himself in life in even brighter colors!
