I feel like i am lying next to a tiger - its quiet and if i stay calm it will not harm me -but i dont know when it will turn round and bite me and if i'll survive the next time - I always have so far- so is there really a danger? - (so if i dont talk about it it will be ok) I would like to find a way to be safe - safer - (not sure that exists - so want another word.....) you see i even have a problem using real words for this

hi p, hope i can think about this one? its intriguing... it sounds like the classic lion and lamb scenario in a way... you represent the lamb... the lion is, well, the lion... you are prayinig that you not be harmed.. or, wishing it, or hoping for it... well, trying to figure it out anyway... you know the lion is wild and you wonder if it will harm you in the next moment.. you feel the feelings of weakness, powerlessness, and fear.......... you know you need an answer too....

so..... along comes the painting... the lion and lamb one.... in it, the lion and lamb are peaceful.... this is the image you are challenged to create in your life using this scenario.... its as if you must tame the lion yourself to establish this unbelievably kind relationship... the lion of course represents all that is wild... including hunger... as the lamb, you are vulnerable, exposed...

next instant could change it all and that is where the anxiety comes from...

the image portrays kindness and gentleness among the beasts.... it has a lot of symbolism connected depending upon your reads...

well, overall, i get a message that the lamb had to have such a nature as to settle the lion.... it must have taken at least three identities of conciousness.... the lions, the lambs, and one other un-named peaceful energy combines to form the image of peace on the land... interesting... thanks for sharing...
