Blue Morpho
Blue Morpho depicts two rivals caught in a stalemate, overcoming egoistic desires to achieve unity with one another. Emanating from the crown above is the divine source of wisdom, cascading down as Light or Pleasure according to Kabbalistic beliefs. This trickles down and distills through various filters reaching ego and desire until its perfume is inhaled with delight and transcendence is achieved. The creature is transformed by Truth, with a point in the heart in the form of light rewinding its way up horned tips to its point of origin, creating a divine circuitry.
