Description While it comes from the Greek mythology, Ouroboros itself means 'Devouring its own tail'. This symbolism represents self-reflexivity or cyclicality, especially in the sense of something constantly re-creating itself, the eternal return, and other things perceived as cycles that begin anew as soon as they end. Painted here is an old ouroboros comes from the ancient world of the Druids and the Celts. People recognize the 'Figure 8 knot' that this Ouroboros incidentally resembles. Those who possess this particular sign are believed to have an eternal luck in their life!

This is fantastic.

I just wrote an article about the history of "eternal recurrence" at www.naukas.com, a science website with over 50,000 readers.
Would you allow me to use this image at the article's top?  Of course I will mention you and link back to your page.

Thanks.
