Be Faithful depicts a woman confronting a threatening creature, sword in hand. She is endowed with wings and accompanied by a cat — elements that suggest an inner preparedness, an embodied ability to face what stands before her. In archetypal symbolism, the cat marks the threshold between the wild and the domestic, intuition and control.
Encircling the composition are talismanic motifs — a fish, an eye, and a hamsa — traditionally associated with protection, fortune, and resilience.
The inscription framing the scarf is drawn from the “Laws of the Wolf,” written at the conclusion of Women Who Run with the Wolves, anchoring the work in a lineage of feminine courage, fidelity to the self, and quiet strength.
