Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know you’re not alone
'Cause I’m going to make this place your home
Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you’re not alone
'Cause I’m going to make this place your home
~ G. Holden and A. Pearson
Lorenzi-Prince's view of the Three of Disks is that it represents the bonds and connections that help us expand our world. I couldn't help but hear Phillip Phillips singing "Home" when I saw the image. Looking down that unfamiliar road, I'm sure the robed companions are glad to have each other along for support. We all have an area where we are more talented or knowledgeable than the average person. It makes sense that together rather than separately is how we'll make the most progress.
The dragon Selbern has been given the keyword "loquacious," meaning talkative. But this isn't engaging, informative or thought-provoking talk, it's just annoying jabber - the kind meant to fill the space of quietness. In the Jewish practice of Mussar, the definition of humility is "limiting oneself to an appropriate space while leaving room for others." There may be times when I need to speak up and dispense information or ask questions. But there are also times when I need to listen while others speak or even just sit and think. Working together, especially in unknown terrain, we need to be aware of our appropriate space.
