Reading motifs without over-reading them

Popular meanings
Many meanings given for motifs — protection, fertility, water — are modern or local explanations. Weavers themselves may name motifs differently.
Speak with care
Say “often described as” rather than “means”. Where a meaning comes from a weaver or source, credit it.
