Okay so I decided I needed an emblem to represent me: my artistic and spiritual endeavor; Basically my life's work. Considering I was very serious about using it for the rest of my life, - I had spent a lot of time in meditation over this. At one point during meditation, I had a vision of a horned owl clutching a cicada in its beak. The feeling was so good that I just ran with it!! Scouring over the internet searching for just the right owl and cicada images, which was actually a lot of fun, as I searched I began to think of the possibilities of the rest of the images that I was amassing.... I really LOVE the interwebs. Having found the right ones I preceded to draw the owl within the 3 inch circle... I really love drawing super tiny; so using my trusty .005 micron pen, while listening to Buddhist lectures and death metal, focusing my intentions while meditating throughout the drawing process, the magic just happened, and the meaning expanded and took shape. I'll probably create of few of these in the future, better and more detailed... but the first will hold that special transcendental moment of inception. The Aura emanating from the owls third eye, represents Enlightenment. Afterwards I spent time researching the spiritual meanings of both owl and cicada through Norse(Viking), American Indian, and Buddhist spiritual meanings; and found there is a tremendous amount of learning that will occur in reaction to this symbol.
