Her body is a triangle over a cross (ascension), draped by a robe of spirit and flesh that is most likely concealing a big dong. This image is similar to traditional depictions of the human body as a microcosm of the Universe. In her right hand she holds a wand (dong), in the left, a flask (womb). She stands inside a vesica piscis or \u201cbladder of the fish\u201d which is a reference to Christ, but also a demonstration of the Universe\u2019s creation through sacred geometry. Essentially she stands inside the opening of a birth canal. The layers of the canal are defined by the 3 Rajas (chaos, activity, equilibrium). The boundaries of the external world are defined by the 4 suits of the Tarot which represent the 4 cardinal directions, the 4 elements, the 4 Holy Living Creatures of Ezekiel, the 4 evangelists, Heart, Intelligence, Prudence, and Creativity. These 4 signs square the circle of the anima mundi (World Soul). Squaring the circle is a problem deemed impossible by mathematicians and has since become a metaphor for futile effort. Reaching this state of quintessence takes something beyond rational processes or reasonable effort.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The cosmic dancer (who is ether) poses on a plowed field, balancing on the egg of the Popess and the Emperor, waiting to start her journey over again as the Fool.
