.
The Lotus Flower symbolizes many things: Purity, Fertility and the Cycle of Life, Open-heartedness and Compassion, Transformation and Rebirth, Spiritual Awakening and Enlightenment. The lotus flower sprouts in muddy waters. As the bud emerges, the water cleanses it as it blossoms into a beautiful flower above water.
.
For me this painting symbolizes a rebirth or second chance of sorts. Another try to forge my own path, follow my intuition, and let life happen for me and not to me.
.
This painting also has many elements that represent me. The Moon, which is the ruler of my sign, with the phases of the moon symbolizing a cycle/rebirth. Water, which is my element, and Earth/nature which I connect to and find peace in. The Torus is a sign of toroidal energy. When a person is in harmony with universal energy, it flows in toroidal fashion.
