Casting

  • metal: pouring molten metal into molds symbolizes the process in which concentration and acts (fire) transform the solid structure of metals (rigid relations) into liquid, thereby allowing for emotions to enter the process of forming new relations (the castings).
  • the forming of a natural principle in itself for an image whose essence is captured by the shape and character of the casting; a spiritual person should be careful since every work, no matter how beautiful, entails the hallmark of personality.
  • a curse: see Curse.
