Reminiscent of the flower of life, which is a six-sided construction of overlapping circles that forms all sacred geometry, here I made a rotating mandala of animal, vegetable, and mineral lifeforms. In the center, a beautiful hexagonal calcite crystal from Dalnegorsk Russia holds the focus, as the stone people teach us to obey perfect alignment. 12 leaves of a prayer plant encircle; Latin name Maranta Leucoreura has the unique property of uplifting its leaves in the evening like praying hands coming together, plus the colors are stunning like a lightning bolt of kundalini sparking upward. 6 whelk seashells spin around the wheel and upon the leaves, causing by their dual axes of rotation a full suggestion of three dimensionality, plus time in the animation. The human being who contemplates the whole thus adds the fifth dimension of realization from a higher perspective.
