"What might we see, how might we act, if we saw with a webbed vision?
The world seen through a web of relationships…as delicate as spider’s silk,
yet strong enough to hang a bridge on.”......Catherine Keller
A weaver takes threads of many colors and skillfully weaves them together into a beautiful tapestry. We talk about "spinning a tale", meaning a storyteller takes "threads" of different characters and weaves them together into a good story with many inter-woven events.
The name "Penelope" originally meant "with a web on her face", a term that was probably a title for an oracle, or perhaps a Goddess of Fate. But "webbed vision" can also have a contemporary meaning as a way of seeing the world with a unitive eye, all people connected and in relationship to each other. That kind of vision enables you to be a "good weaver" in your community, family, and life. You are a person who helps others to "connect the dots" - a true instinctual networker.
Reversed: You may be having a hard time seeing the connections between people and/or events in your life, partly because you feel so disconnected and isolated from others. Get back "on line" with your life, and reach out to re-connect with whatever it takes.
