Jason stands before Chiron’s cave firmly gripping two flaming wands before he sets out to reclaim his inheritance. Chiron can be seen within the darkness of the cave.

Jason
as a baby, he was entrusted to Chiron’s care to protect him from his uncle Pelias’ desire for Jason’s father’s throne
when he’d grown to manhood, Chiron told him about his birthright, which Jason was determined to reclaim
Hera was his protectress
Overview
the two wands represent the newly conceived goal as a particular vision even if one still doesn’t know how that vision is to be achieved; his imagination is fired up and that’s enough at this point
the wands represent a tentative starting point
all creative journeys begin with one idea that leads to another since the original idea is merely a prelude to the next one
the initial idea is sufficient to get one moving out of one’s safety zone
an inspiration that one can have more than one has or be more than one is
believing in a vision enough to try to make it a reality, without knowing if one will succeed or fail
represents a time when plans must be formulated
Random Thoughts
his initial idea ended up not being a completion but the first step in a much larger and more complicated journey
again we see the roll that another person plays in starting one along their journey, for if Chiron had never revealed his birthright to Jason, there might not have been a story of the Golden Fleece
one must go out into the world and forge one’s own destiny

The keyword/phrase I came up with in my workbook on 16 Nov 91 was "courage".
