Oar

1- The oar is a tool that enables a boat to move forward successfully; but its use requires some skill. Thus it stands for our own set of personal skills. We have certain skills which help us to ‘navigate’ our lives.

2- To put one’s oar in indicates our ability to interfere with other people’s lives.

To lose an oar indicates the loss of an ability we have formerly valued.

3- An oar can suggest a Spiritual Tool, by nature of its guiding qualities, though ultimately it is we ourselves who have control over the direction we take.
