The Convergence of Five Hands: Flowing Past the Hero Trap into Collective Sovereignty The raiders struck under the dark of the moon, vanishing into the volcanic hills with the entire wealth of the clan. The village youth ran in ten different directions, tiring themselves against the stones, achieving nothing. Five brothers stepped forward—one could hear a reed bend leagues away, one could read the scratch of an ant on bare basalt, one had arms of ironwood, one smelled smoke on the wind, and one held the medicine of mist. Yet, left alone, each brother was entirely helpless against the canyon pass. How many of us in modern life are running ourselves into an early grave trying to be all five brothers at once? We take pride in saying, "I don’t need anybody, " while our physical bodies, our families, and our institutions bleed out in silence.

Number 2

The 2's element teach us that it is stable and firm. It is confident and strong. From the earth (2's element) we can learn the power of silence and giving. The earth is not judgmental and provides for all. The number 2 is the same.
From its polarity we learn that 2 is a power that is cultivated internally. We first need to learn how cooperate with ourselves before we go out into the world and try to promote cooperation. cooperation can not be forced onto someone it has to be willingly taken. that is where wisdom comes into play. By plugging into the #2 we get access to the wisdom to bring people and systems together.
From its quality we find that the #2 is fixed. This means that its axe'(power) is released in our lives by using patience. This power does not bend, or adapt to the world. The world eventual bends to it. This power stands like the earth firm and unmovable.
Embrace the 2 and see what you can find in this wondrous symbol and release its axe' (power)n your life.
