Step 5 of 9 · Courage, Fear and Risk

Strength

Modern interpretation

Why this step

Strength is the quiet counterpart. Tyr lost his hand binding Fenrir and did it calmly because someone had to. The entry calls this costly courage that does not need an audience, and says a fear does not need to be destroyed, only met directly. Reversed, avoidance wears the costume of control, and Fenrir, the entry says, breaks free eventually.
