I dont think anybody questioned the meaning of balance. If they did, it's due to the fact that it's been misused or distorted.
Personally, i feel someone who is critical of another person's intentions should be lauded. Not enough skepticism in the world today.
We could sit around and discuss how words dont mean what they used to, like salty... or we take this at face value and help Vipera out. Or not. Literally no obligation.
I think its impressive. And she has a valid point. And that sigil, though oddly offputting and familiar, I know I have never seen it before.
This post feels incomplete or halfcocked... today just ain't my day. Anyways... best wishes with this endeavor Vipera, and as I said. I'll take part... if I'm not on a plane, that is
Please help me with this ritual effort

It's strange that one would find the sigil/symbol offputting, in its actual substance I can assure that all it is, is a complement to exactly the cause I have talked about.
I see there has been a little questioning in this thread about the symbol or curiosity about it; and I would like to suggest that when people judge an image based on its appearance you're going to have a Rorschach-effect where it says more about you/your relationship with the subject than it does about the image.
With that, next to what the symbol represents...perhaps this brings to further light the disconnect I talked about a lot of people having to some degree with nature, which is a collective shadow. Every single one of us I would have to argue maintains at least a shard of detachment from nature whether it is in terms of the outer wilderness or our own inner wilderness.
I can tell you that the little circle with a dot in the middle of it is obviously the alchemical glyph for the Sun, the rest looks like tree branches reaching toward it, and a wild/animalic eye at the center governing this. In all likelihood if the image is meant to look like anything, that is it, as it matches what I was trying to gather. I hope that may allow more clarity for anyone wondering.

I'm in.
Will be a few hours before some of you guys though, as I'm in Denmark. It won't make a difference will it?

Lulz... I skim to shell.
I even bought a virgin fountain pin for the occasion. It was a fine tip though. I decided to go with classic black ink. Moms is visiting atm, but I'm gonna practice drawing the symbol, without intent, before the hour, though.
I'm not artistically inclined and thos stuff takes practice for me

So excited for this. I love it when people come together for a common cause. It's always an interesting outcome when many join in, especially when it's all across the world instead of just a small group in a set location.
