I have a knight in my office. He is 7 feet tall and quite imposing. People ask me various questions about him: "Why is he there?" "Is that new?" "What does that mean?" "Is he real?"...
He is a (Jungian) archtype... of our fantasies and fears, our need for heroes and magical wonders, our search for the mythical mate and the glorious warrior... In any case, he is a marvelous mirror upon which we can project any and all of the above...
