Last year, I created my own "Tantric" symbol and prominently displayed it here on the blog. As a LARP, obviously. It showed a black swan emerging from a blue lotus, surrounded by a coral snake ready to strike. This snake wasn´t biting its own tail! In the background was a hexagram, which could be interpreted both as a symbol of static order (Saturn) and of dynamic creation (Shiva-Shakti).
For various reasons, I decided to replace this rather fierce emblem with a more "moderate" one. The venomous snake is gone, as you can see. But...
Just the other day, it struck me that something else is different about the new symbol. I didn´t see it at first, since Copilot Designer made this move all on its own. In the old symbol (intended to be fierce), the swan and the snake were looking to (their) left. In the new one, the swan is look to (its) right?!
That is: the Left Hand Path vs The Right Hand Path. Fascinating how co-incidences work.
