Swords are also associated with the penis and masculinity.
Sounds like a western dictionary meaning. I guess some symbols mean different things to different people of different cultures. Something I'll look into in the future. This temple looked like one of those shinto places in Japan. I guess flimpsy was a bad word to describe the sword, it was more cloth. When the sword became energized it blade became a normal blade, only that the edge was unusually thin like a piece of paper and sharp. This is my second dream that had something to do with Japan within the couple days.
