Personal symbolism
Illumination makes hidden things visible, but these strange scenes carry sharply different meanings. Unusual lights point toward disappointment and failure; glowing faces suggest unsettled private and official affairs. An uncanny illuminated sky carries severe distress, while children in it warn of harm done in an emotional frenzy. Figures or animals in the heavens suggest trouble, though their fall and being shot can mark obstacles overcome through determination. Illuminated snakes or creeping creatures bring the image back to threat and hostile forces. Notice which scene dominated and whether you felt wonder, fear, anger, or resolve.
Questions to reflect on
