Lion Serpent by Reddit User u/NIGHTGROWLER
(sh.itjust.works)
Reminiscent / a version of Yaldabaoth / Chnoubis "The Demiurge"
- Snake with the head of a lion
- usually a negative / evil figure. Occasionally invoked / inscribed positively / for protection
- said to be born of the concept of wisdom (Sophia) who attempted to create something without the other half of her syzygy. On it's creation yaltabaoth was expelled from heaven (The Pleroma or "fullness") into the material world (The Kenoma or "emptiness"). It dragged Sophia into the material world with it and shattered her into a multitude of fragments. It then created the earth and imprisoned those fragments of Sophia in the Kenoma as humans, doomed to reincarnate into the material world until they achieve gnosis and are able to ascend back into The Pleroma.
Note: Also reminiscent of another thing.
That’s a penis.
Not gonna comment on the yonic component of the imagery? Sexism in action, folks. 😉
I’d say it’s more a penis than a vagina if I’m being honest. Vaginas have a lot more going on than a simple lenticular shape.
I'm really enjoying the quality of this discourse on the comparison of art to genitalia. This is exactly what I was going for. 🥂 That said, I would argue that the sperm pointing towards the hole and the litle hole above the big one is pretty darn yonic.
Had to look at it again but look at that. There is a dick in the pussy. Neat
Looks more like the wall of a bathroom stall at a truck stop.
this is the boss of autogamy
I like it, fam. I have no idea why anyone would downvote this.
Dude it's pretty clearly knob shaped.
the penis is facing into a big hole under a smaller hole along with a bunch of tiny things with tails all within a lenticular outline
Tbf the vaginal shape is more subtle. The egg/sperm thing is similarly harder to notice, possibly due to my lousy vision and the colours.
