Yes, i quiet agree with the above statment.
Sometimes thing like these need to happen. without them, we would be stuck in past of things and we would never move on or learn from our mistakes. Aragorn would never gain the sense of a higher responsiblity if they hadn't have to continue without Gandalf. If you are familiar with the author/artist Brian Froud these next statments you will understand. especially if you have read [i]Good faeries/Bad faeries[/I.
If we could draw a faerie oracle for Aragorn and Gandalf these helpful things would show up:
The guardian at the gate: Passages to a new life. Openings. gatekeeping.
The singer of transformation: Transformation. Transscendence. Metamorphosis.
The sage: Wisdom. Hidden knowledge. Old age. Patience.
The friends: Friendship . support .aid
The topsie Turvets: Change of veiwpoint. Fresh looks. New ways of seeing.
And many more. as you can see all these represent: new ways, responsibilty, taking on a new challenge, support, new found wisdom, and let's not forget friendship.
All this info. (if you are interested, is avaliable in the following book.) The Faeries' Oracle : working with the faeries to find insight, wisdom, and joy. this also is another of Brian Froud's books.
Ihope that i have given some insight on this topic if you think that my knowledge is helpful. write soon. good bye. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Merry meet, Merry depart, Merry meet again.
"Remember, each journey inot Faery is complete only when we come home again and make human sense of faery nonsense, passing on or making use of wharever we have learned."
