The Mandorla is an ancient symbol of two circles coming together, overlapping one another to form an almond shape in the middle. Mandorla is the Italian word for almond. The Mandorla is also known as the [[Vesica Pisces]], symbolizing the interactions and interdependence of opposing worlds and forces. The Mandorla depicts the union of apparent opposites, the same union of which the mystics speak. Our ego-consciousness divides reality into subject and object, whereas out true self experiences unity and harmony. Although the symbol has its origins before the Christian era, the early Christians used the symbol as a method to describe the coming together of heaven and earth, between the divine and human. <ref>[http://www.constellationsofwords.com/Constellations/Crux.html]</ref> <ref>[http://www.kyrie.com/symbols/mandorla.htm Mandorla]</ref> | The Mandorla is an ancient symbol of two circles coming together, overlapping one another to form an almond shape in the middle.
