Ouroboros

The Ourobros Mandala is a glass clock with my handmade painted mandala.
Available in MY ETSY





Mandalas are great harmonizers for any space. This mandala features Ouroboros, the ancient symbol of snake eating its tail.

The ouroboros often symbolizes self-reflexivity or cyclicality, especially in the sense of something constantly re-creating itself, the eternal return, and other things such as the phoenix which operate in cycles that begin anew as soon as they end. It can also represent the idea of primordial unity related to something existing in or persisting from the beginning with such force or qualities it cannot be extinguished. (Source: Wikipedia).

The swirls in the serpent body mark the hours.
