Personal symbolism
A yoke makes direction and obedience visible. Consider whether you felt subject to someone else's expectations or responsible for guiding those who depend on you. The difference matters because the image moves between reluctant conformity and accepted authority. Difficulty yoking the oxen brings concern about a friend's excesses into the picture. Reflect on how much responsibility you feel for another person's conduct and how it feels when your guidance is accepted, resisted, or unable to bring the reassurance you want.
