The Hermit and The Sun

A lamp drawn with the Sun, which the tradition reads as a difference of scale rather than of kind. The Hermit carries enough light for the next few steps; the Sun lights everything at once. The pair describes something private becoming plain.

Associated with something worked out alone being said openly, and with how much smaller it turns out to be once it is.

Read for a solitary conclusion being brought into the open. The pair is favourable about doing so.

Bring it out. Things worked out by lamplight grow in the dark, and daylight is usually a relief rather than an exposure.
