Oroboros links

• "In general, if not universal terms, the Ouroboros may be defined as a self-sustaining, tail-eating snake, but it is clear that there is far more to the matter than this, for the concept is almost global in its distribution and evidently has far deeper meanings in many cultures" - SPIRA SOLARIS AND THE UNIVERSAL OUROBOROS: Link

• "The ouroboros has several meanings interwoven into it. Foremost is the symbolism of the serpent biting, devouring, eating its own tail. This symbolises the cyclic Nature of the Universe: creation out of destruction, Life out of Death. The ouroboros eats its own tail to sustain its life, in an eternal cycle of renewal" - Symbology behind the Ouroboros: Link

• Ouroborus, the serpent dragon that siezes its own tail and unites these polarities in forming its circle in the Soul - The alchemy website: Link

• mun.ca

• "Ouroboros is an ancient alchemy symbol depicting a snake or dragon [DNA] swallowing its own tail, constantly creating itself and forming a circle." Link

• "There was no surrounding air to be breathed, nor was it in need of any organ by which to supply itself with food or to get rid of it when digested. Nothing went out from or came into it anywhere, for there was nothing. Of design it was made thus, its own waste providing its own food, acting and being acted upon entirely with and by itself, because its designer considered that a being which was sufficient unto itself would be far more excellant than one which depended upon anything." from Timaeus (The construction of the world), Plato - Ouroboros, Univeristy of Minnesota, School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture: Link
