The Voice of the Symbol - Contemporary Totems
Through conscious contact with a symbol and the pattern of energy the symbol holds, we may discover some deeper truth. In this way, mediation on a an ancient symbol such as the spiral or the star, may induce a physical experience that brings a deeper, truer understanding of the symbolic message. This can be a profound awaking experience to the meaning of a symbol.
It’s not the pure definition of the symbol but the essence of the symbol that’s important but more how the individual interprets the symbol in their life. The symbol is represented in many ways, conventional; signs in industry, chemistry and math, tribal affiliation and religion, temporary association and archetypal / universal collective, occurring within our dreamtime.
The totem holds and represents the symbol of purpose, meaning and being according to indigenous people. “Bush Soul” is a primitive belief that wo/man has a bush soul as well as his own and that bush soul is incarnate in a wild animal or a tree, which the human has some kind of psychic identity.
These contemporary totems are symbols of pause and reflect, prompts for peace. The images and symbols are personal to me and I hope that they resonate and will leave a collective imprint.
