Alatyr
Often called the black sun even though it is not
actually a solar symbol, it came into prominence in the mid 1800's as a
theosophical symbol under the auspices of H. P. Blavatsky who was quite
fond of the symbol. Originally of Slavic origin however, the Alatyr
was thought to be the magical stone that lay at the center of the earth,
radiating all the life giving magic in the world. Slavic legend says
that Alatyr is the mother of all stones and has great healing power,
wisdom, and love. |
