One Thin Ring can mean a lot. Sometimes One Thin Ring will be significant because it goes around a woman’s finger and a closed circle means something, as does the capture. The ring owns the finger, not the other way around, according to that symbolic meaning. One submits like a king to a palace.

Other times One Thin Ring can gain significance by being different. Crop circles stand out because not because they have some newly discovered property — roundness — but because they don’t conform with the rest of the field. That’s a good thing, minus the crop damage. How we love to ponder the significance of unclear symbols!

The greatest treasure a mind can hope for is meaning that can be grasped, turned over, inspected, and placed where it grabs the eye and reminds us why it matters. We like truths heavy enough to stay where we put them.

Often we search for the meaning we hope, but find another, or none. Not every symbol hides meaning worth the mental horsepower required to expose it — and some symbols are Trojan horses. Best to keep their gifts out your head.

And alas, still other times, One Thing Ring is a mistake. No meaning — unless — that moment of misplaced attention, frozen in time, shiny, is like an atom pregnant in the waveform, not yet collapsed by the eye of the beholder into the meaning it needs to see, somewhere, anywhere, or all is lost. Then One Thin Ring becomes the love of your life, a partner in the chaos, a holder of truth, a cache of hope.

All I can say is, I dig all of them.
