Yin-Yang symbol on the PA Forum header

That's a honed inquisitive nature you have there, Petra! I like it.

Ha ha thanks I guess. I was mostly just seeing the balance symbology again, but really can't it symbolize whatever you like? It kind of does look like it's yawning at me...! Symmetry is beautiful, I can understand that a lot better than balance too.

A more accurate description is an inspired concept.

The OP formulated in real-time through me. Never before the moment of composing the post had I used or seen the concept before. It flowed through me as if it was meant to be written the first time I saw the new PA header graphics. It was only after I composed the post did I look back and understand the message. As a bonus I thought it was a perfect homage to PA and "The Chronicles of the human awakening". I do believe many people around the world are in throws of a new awakening. (The music clips included in OP were inspired in the same way)

More clearly the threads is for comments about the OP. In addition a space for sharing personal stories of inspiration during the awakening process or other things inspiring the process encountered.

That's just perfect

I wish I had an inspirational awakening story to contribute. Mine so far is just the tale of my having the crap scared out of me. A good analogy would probably be like when you sneak up on your sleeping friend and say BOO, and the person falls right out of the bed.

Oh my gosh yes. I like to think of the symbol as Multilingual as one example. It's a great overall symbol of the mind and a stylized Pandora's Box. I believe no religion, organization (at least for personal use), or what have you has a monopoly on any symbol when deriving meaning from it.

I'm glad you brought up the subject, I would not want people thinking I was saying something like "this is what the symbol really means or anything of the sort.

I enjoy reading about peoples research into modern symbology as well as the old.

Did I read too much into the level of your inquisitive nature? If so, apologies, I do that sometimes.

Me too, I just find symbology fascinating, even dream symbology which rarely makes sense to me.

The thing about yawning has my mind reeling! I swear there was a time when I actually had a yawning fit. It was like it would not stop! I didn't even know fits could happen with yawning. It hasn't happened since, but I recall thinking it felt like something was trying to make me go to sleep but it wasn't working (lol)

I also remember guessing, that was funny too. "Why am I yawning so much? Am I bored? Do I need Oxygen?" LOL

NO! You're spot on and no apology needed.
I wouldn't call it inquisitive so much as suspicious. I have a suspicious nature, but also have a polite nature too...
I know there's something up when I get suspicious of something as harmless as Yin Yang symbol! Maybe it was the a combination of that and the yawning thing, I don't know.
