If you’re wondering why I keep depicting the serpent with a hand growing out of the opposite end of it, it’s because one day I imagined what my personal Daemon/Daimon would look like. And this is the first thing that popped into my mind: a serpent undulating about in darkness. With a Black Left Hand as an alternate head growing where it’s tail would be. And an eye set in the center of the left hand. It’s beautiful and alien, it would be almost terrifying if seen in real life.
Artists usually have their own set of symbols as a visual library, which they will use throughout their works and lives. For me, the eye in the palm is like an extra perception. It is the conscious eye and representative of the “I” in addition to the physical of the hand. And it can also roll around backwards and see inward as well as it can see outward. It sees all. When I give beings extra eyes they represent extra abilities or perceptions (Vision Serpent artworks, etc.).
Therefore, do not steal my daemon, or from my personal artistic visual library. Or else my Red Right Hand, the fire serpent with the devouring mouth set inside of the palm, will catch you… 😉
“Left Hand Black, Right Hand Red.”
