Ouroboros
from Cthonicist · host Svetlovska
In the Ancient Egyptian Enigmatic Book of the Netherworld the symbol of the serpent swallowing its tail represented the beginning and end of time, and the formless disorder which surrounds the orderly world. In Norse culture it was Jörmungandr, the world-serpent. In the 15th century alchemical text the Chrysopoeia of Cleopatra, it represents balance of opposites. For Jung, the embrace of the shadow self. And what does it represent for you?
