Description

Apophysism ps6 and common asian fabric motif for background

I wanted to post this new years, but unfortately my computer blew up on me in 11/24, just got my new motherboard today and hopefully it will work out.

I tried hard to find a decent new years image and this asian parade lion like spiral popped up. The lion dance possesses mystical properties through its colors: When paired with the five colors (yellow, black, green, red and white) as the costume is colored, it is said to have control over the five cardinal directions. The forehead, adorned with a mirrors to deflect evil forces. The lion walks back and forth, in a zigzag path, in order to confuse evil spirits, which the Chinese believe move in straight lines. Its image bring hopes of wealth and goood fortune, cure sickness, bless marriages and guard against misfortune. We alll can't go to wonderful places of blessing. So in the spirit of thought I offer you this fractal blessing for the late new years.
