The main difference between this one is that the Space element is symbolized by a black circle, rather than white.

Tattva Shuddhi Symbols & the body

Here are the esoteric symbols superimposed upon the body, along with their seed (Bija) mantra

Tattva Shuddhi Symbols, reverse order

Instead of the conventional order that begins with the earth element, this version begins (symbolically) with Siva as the base, and builds up to the Earth element, symbolized by the gold square.

These are the symbols used in the Tantrik practice of Tattva Shuddhi, a form of resolving karmas through purification of the elements.

Lake Huron, winter 2008

Michigan has had the coldest winter in decades. Water expands to freeze, and at Mackinaw City the water in Lake Huron below the surface ice was super-cooled. It expanded to break through the surface ice and froze into this incredible wave. I've seen pictures of this wave phenomena in Antarctica, but in Michigan ? Yes, it's been quite a winter!
