I've found Ram Dass' conception of a partnership as a triangle to be one one of the most resonant, instructive, and grounding symbolic images guiding the union my parter and I share.
โWhen I used to perform weddings, the image I always had was the image of a triangle, in which there are two partners and then there is this third force, this third being, that emerges out of the interaction of these two. The third one is the one that is the shared awareness that lies behind the two of them.โ
