“You have to die to be reborn. This is exactly what I had been trying to do, die
of the personal to be reborn in the spiritual.”
- Michael Singer (from The Surrender Experiment)
The phoenix is a largemythological desert bird that represents the cycles of life by regenerating itself from its ashes and rising above.
The two plus signs represent thinking positively through all obstacles. With this mindset we can remain focused on what is ahead and not on the obstacle itself.
The lighting bolts symbolize our ability to take negative energy, transmute it into positive energy by staying grounded and using it to build as we rise.
