Yakov said to Eisav כה אמר עבדך יעקב. - the word כ״ה hints to the acceptance of מלכות שמים in the 25 letters of the pasuk שמע ישראל, the concept of עבדך.

Under the mazal,

First, it is the hidden level that you are loving, not the revealed. Second, expressing this love means striving to the point of self sacrifice to preserve the well being of another who is in trouble.
