Ancient Phi Spiral Brass Pendant necklace

The Ancient Phi Spiral symbol represents the concept of Creation, Life, Death, Eternity. It is found in the earliest art of humankind. The Spiral is literally ubiquitous - it is maybe the fundamental LAW that defines and maintains our entire world. It's become clear that everything in our world, the things we know and those we don't yet know, are all comprised of Energy. Energy, which can be neither created nor destroyed. Energy is eternal with no beginning and no end, and it is continually changing forms - from waves to particles and back again.  Over the course of Eternity past, present, and future, Energy has been, is, and will be Everything. The forms taken by Energy have absolutely NO limits to the ways they can combine, separate, recombine. Every bit of the Energy in our world is a fractal of the all-encompassing design of the Spiral. That design is THE design of Everything. No matter how small we seek to discover, no matter how far we range into space ... the pattern simply repeats and repeats and repeats. Energy ALWAYS adheres to the perfect balance of the Spiral, no matter what, no matter when, no matter where. Everything is a fractal of the larger design pattern. Regardless of how different our perception of specific items are, made up of Energy and adhering to the design of the Spiral - which we identify as Phi - 1.618... How in the world does a symbol representing such complex concepts (to us) come to be so very ancient? As for the line running through the center of the symbol, it could be to keep the whole thing in balance, a stabilizing force that keeps the spiral from unwinding. Ancient spirals abound around the globe, and the 'Phi Line' is present in many of them although not all. Speculation continues as to the meanings or interpretations of the ancient symbols. What we DO know is that they're ancient, and everywhere. Cultures all over the world, at different times, at the same times, with connections, without connections that anyone can identify. This symbol represents Mystery and at the same time the solving of all Mystery ... if we can only just unlock its secrets.... Shiela Branson, Science and Mythology
