Early Beginnings in Creative/Personal Mythology

I like the blend of triangles and circles. You’ve got both the commonly used trinity from the triangles, as well as the eternality of the circle.

If I had to guess what it was about, I would say something about transcendence, all the facets/elements that one faces along the path to it, and how it’s all connected. But I’d be curious to know what it actually is, if you ever remember.

I like that interpretation
I remember I got some inspiration from the Sri Yantra, and the entanglement of fire and water (also representing other dualities) into nonduality, which is represented by the unbroken circle There’s also the Sun and the Moon, and the trinity or birth, death and rebirth

Oh, I definitely have to learn more about this! Do you have any recommended reading, or should I stick to Awakening Shakti?

I definitely do, let’s see…

• Shakti Rising by Kavitha M. Chinnaiyan
• Shakti and Shakta by Arthur Avalon
• Kashmir Shaivism: The Secret Supreme by Swami Lakshmanjoo

You come from a line of stargazers and explorers who delved deeply into the darkness beyond the stars. In touching the void, the void touched them, and your mind, spirit, and body yearn to span the gulf between worlds.

That’s beautiful and gives me shivers

@starborn

I know I’m rambling about a game now, but I suppose you can see my lifelong fascination with darkness, void, liminal space (before I even knew the term), and the night sky through all the things I’ve felt drawn to.

I definitely do, and share the fascination as well

And I do the quote thing sometimes too… especially my girlfriend has to put up with me quoting Cultist Simulator all of the time Especially the sentence “into the circle of night we fly until the fire enjoys us” is well worn
