Description

A tribute to the element of water, overflowing with esoteric symbolism about the life-giving element. The three water Zodiac signs, in the style of Sidney Hall, and Poseidon's trident circle two serpentine entities. From the churning abyss emerges Gustav Dore's Leviathan. In the storm clouds slithers a rain snake, heralding the coming downpour. 

Atop the circle is the alchemical symbol for water, flanked by two lotus flowers, all crowned by the coronet of The Empress tarot card. In the corner floats an icosahedron, referencing the geocentric Ptolemaic notion of the universe - the encircling waning moon points to the sublunary sphere in which the elements are held. The crescent is adorned with myrtle, flowers of peace and cleansing.

This is the altar cloth version of the Aqua tapestry, which has additional art and symbolism.
