I could see this being related to different states of your own being or your struggles with some powerful personalities in your life. You or someone you know has the perception that life should be met with structure, discipline and strong defensive practices. This type of outlook is a threat to seeing our worth and value and our perfect image of ourselves, depending on your perception of the prince ideal. This ideal feels at risk where you live, your state of being or the atmosphere around you so you try to rise above in your thinking to a higher perspective but there are holes in this plan. Your ideal can get there but you still get dragged down emotional and have to make fierce defensive moves (hippo busting the boat) to get free from feeling oppressed by the situation.
So here is where it gets interesting. I suspect the starfish is your higher wisdom related to emotions and living in them as females and ocean dwelling creatures are related to the emotional side of life. By saying you see her as wise could mean you are starting to see the value of emotions in helping you make wise decisions. to fully embrace this it's important to see that the strong fortresses we build to protect ourselves are not built on a solid foundation (Sand) and therefore wind up developing holes of vulnerability. On your quest to understanding this you are starting to see how polar thinking can have an impact on us. Phi can mean a polar coordinate or plane angle. So possibly polar thinking has been put on a pedastal but is on unstable foundation. Polar thinking can be considered thinking in absolutes, good/bad, right/wrong, pass/fail or a very common one, an us versus them perspective. This type of thinking that others who don't see life like we do are the enemy keeps us at odds with them. It's common for us to fall into this kind of mindset when we feel threatened by others but until we break the idea that people can be enemies for how they treat us we will always have to feel on guard in life. You very well may have been looking in a whole other direction to resolve being at odds with strong personalities in your life but in the process are learning much more about thinking styles and in the process liberating yourself fully from feeling the need to defend or run and hide from anyone. Continue to rely on your inner wisdom. It is indeed wise and intelligent.
