Examination of the Wheel - Yeats's A Vision - Ecosophia Book Club

[inavalon]

This three-dimensional "spinner" is an attempt to represent Yeats' concept of the Great Wheel, showing the 28 phases of human incarnation, the four faculties (Will, Mask, Creative Mind and Body of Fate) that move around the wheel through the phases, and the two tinctures, primary and antithetical. My aim is to move from difficult abstract ideas to a more concrete, sensory understanding of Yeats's Vision. This is a work in progress!

Just by making the spinner and on my end, just by viewing it, makes visualization of the concept that much easier. Thank you.

This is very helpful

The waves are buffeting me just a little less now. Thank you.
