Dreamtime - The movement to the beach is important. For you were or are moving from what you know, your house, to a great and beautiful border. You move across a field, leaving behind duties or links with the past into greater freedom.
The beach is something ever changing yet ever the same - the beach. It is a border and a link with the forces of nature that are fundamental things that gives you life, like the sun the air, but also the immense ocean of life that we are largely unaware of.
I am not surer about the torches, but I feel they are thing that people carry about with them to make life more pleasurable but are not actually necessary. You wonder when you enter a new type of consciousness whether you will easily return to ‘normal’ life again. But changes are only an addition to you and nothing is taken away.
You are thereby entering a healing process, but it will be short lived.
The ring is very important and I wish I could see a picture of its design, but it has the square and the circle or round in it. It is another way of showing you wholeness, the fact that you are at the same time the great ocean and also the earthy personality with limitations. The ring is also representing that you now have the ring, the eternal and the passion and the many. You are now engaged to the wonder that you are with the promise of marriage to be made whole.
