Description

In Egyptian symbolism, the Djed Pillar is the Axis Mundi - the hub that keeps the Wheel of the Year turning: the planets and stars whirling in the sky. In the human form, the djed pillar is the spine. This one has many, many names, but we'll just call him 'Djed'. Poser figure by me 'Uttar Bai'; aurora photo by Stephane Vetter's "A Starry Night in Iceland" (warped vertically here); some fractals and a bit of ivy and hocus-pocus. Stir coninuously for 365 days at 360 degrees. Thank you all so much for your lovely past comments and enjoy your week please! Cheers my friends, Rayvn

Symetry! first thought that came to my mind when I saw your picture. It reminds me of something I heard recently. Scientists think that beyond the law of universal gravity there a more important feature in the Universe:Symetry. We can see it in crystals,in snowflakes, even in sounds. And they think Universe is a huge crystal,a dodecahedron. Therefore universe might be smaller than thought, it just reflets itself in the 12 sides of the dodecahedron. Fascinating. Beautiful picture and as always I'm fascinated by your Uttar Bai.:)
