-The Singer of Courage-
Bravery. Sublimitation of fear. Moral strength.
Reversed.
When the song of courage has grown faint, and we feel overcome by fear and self-doubt, the questions we need to ask ourselves begin with "What am I really afraid of?" Quite often deep soul-searching enables us to discover that our true fears are hidden behind our false fears. It is impossible to face false fears because they are merely shape-shifters and shadows without substance, continually changing form. Facing a real fear is much easier because it doesn't keep changing the rules and moving the goalposts. The question then becomes "What can I do to open my heart to courage so when I feel fear, I can follow though on what I want and need to do?"
As an Oracle group member wisely suggests, another question to ask is "What else is present?" She notes, "When fear of any kind arises in the mind, more space is allowed in the heart if one acknowledges the fear while at the same time looking for whatever else, besides the fear, is also there. Thus one neither ignores nor gives too much focus to the fear itself - and more space opens up within which the fear can be explored and liberated"

"Faery wings, formed of shifting light, emotion, and energy, are the manifestation of the power of those beings that transcend the mundane world" -Brian Froud
