Abraxas symbol
The Abraxas symbol originates from Gnostic traditions and represents a divine, all-encompassing being that embodies both good and evil, light and darkness. Often depicted as a creature with a rooster's head, a man's body, and serpents or other symbolic elements, Abraxas illustrates the unity and balance of opposing forces in the universe. It emphasizes that existence contains dualities that are interconnected, reflecting a complex view of spirituality where divine power encompasses all aspects of reality rather than being limited to moral binaries.
