The Pale Horse Finds His Calling

Ouroboros is the ancient symbol of a snake circled back and biting its tail. It represents the cyclic nature of the world, the fundamental unity of things, and in some cases, the vicious cycle.

Ethics aside, who better to sell a universal cure-all than the harbinger of apocalypse himself? The creator of the ailment dispenses its cure. The circle closes. The snake bites its tail.

So funny Heather, you work reminds me of vintage posters. I love your magickal themes. I would like to see your images printed on olde medicine bottles. Would also make a great book cover.
