The “Star Of Inner Balance” is a powerful mandala created to enhance our ability to maintain balance within ourselves. The central icon is a six pointed star (two intersecting triangles) often referred to as the Star of David, a symbol of Judaic heritage. It’s roots however, were in India, where the hexagram
(six- pointed star) was revered as symbolizing the scared union between the Goddess Kali and the God, Shiva. The downward pointing triangle represents the female symbol of water and grace descending from heaven; the upward pointing triangle represents the male symbol of fire, and the ascent into the heavens.

Surrounding the hexagram, are the intertwining sun and moon, representing the supportive relationship of male and female energies, necessary for the creation and sustenance of life itself. The twelve points of the sun and star symbolize the twelve zodiacs, and the twelve months it takes the earth circle the sun. The ” Star of Inner Balance” represents the miracle of life which depends on the sacred union of the male and female spirit. These spirits manifest themselves not only in human form, but in everything around us. Ancient civilizations had many names for ” the great Goddess”, but most believed she was and is the Earth itself, resulting in our reference to the earth as female; i.e. Mother Earth. Gntities of the sky and heavens, are generally referred to as Gods; Zeus, Apollo, Osiris, Odin, etc., connoting male energies.
