About my design
by francobolli   
Wasn't quite sure what to call this... but looking at the design, the sum of every symbol represents a common ideology, despite the different traditions they originate from, hence the title.

Symbology, with its uses and meanings within different traditions, really intrigues me and consequently this was inspired by readings about a variety of different symbolic references from, but not limited to, Alchemy, Wiccan, Pagan, Egyptian, Masonic, Norse (Asatru) and African traditions. You may notice that main frame work is the "Squaring the Circle": an alchemical glyph (17th c.) of the creation of the Philosopher's Stone - the top hemisphere representing the spiritual world, the bottom representing the material world. Looking closer you may recognise many more symbols that make up the image, including the Eye of Providence, pentacle flower, ouroboros (serpent eating its tail), and elemental symbols, to mention a few.

It's surprising to learn just how many traditional symbols are strewn throughout society without us realizing it. This is just a little tribute to the underlying traditions, philosophies and meanings that often go unnoticed.
