In this instance Time & Space are divided according to the patterns and rhythms in nature and also according to macrocosmic principles: South located at 12:00, East at 9:00, West at 3:00 and North at 6:00. Please note there are 60 minutes in an hour and 24 hours in a day, totalling 1,440 minutes which when divided by 90 ( a magical number in Tantra) results in 16 mins (this being the number of petals arranged around the classic Shri yantra Mandala) that represent precisely the 16 periods of 2...

In the Hopi Indian tradition the Medicine Wheel also has a labyrinthine layout with seven paths ceremoniously traced out in rituals that help to heal and guide the initiates of the tribe.

Although largely a patriarchal tradition, at the four equinoctial points between the seasons reside four medicine women, or manifestations of the Sky/Earth Mother, who teach and nurture mankind. They are also known as or associated with the four stars or major constellations (The Great Bear, The Pleaides, Orion, Scorpius and the Milky Way). Similar in arrangement, symbolism and style to some Tibetan mandalas the four archetypal women represent hidden or potential aspects of the self that the ...
