At first glance, I thought this Princess had fired up the barbie (it's actually an altar, not a barbeque grill). But in a sense, that is just what she does with her lust for life. If she gets in her mind that there is something that needs to be accomplished, she'll tell you to throw every fear and doubt in the flames and burn them to a crisp. She knows that getting rid of those old patterns and self-restrictions will free up energy that can be used constructively.
The White Dwarf is what is left over after a small to medium-sized star has died. It is much like the white coals left after a hot fire, which are better for cooking over. In relation to the Princess, enthusiasm can get things moving, but the heart of the matter - the essence - must be considered. After all the flamboyant, searing flame is removed, what is important that should be emphasized, carried forward and completed?
If a man has any greatness in him, it comes to light, not in one flamboyant hour,
but in the ledger of his daily work. ~Beryl Markham
The flash of excitement verses the long slow simmering of desire. Both burn.
