Leap of Faith
The main figure is on a spiritual quest for wholeness. On her path she encounters an abyss. Instead of giving up, she puts her foot out over the chasm and takes the leap! With eyes closed, she doesn't know she has angels and helpers all around her to support her Leap of Faith.
Alchemy and Chemistry
Alchemy is a black magic woman, but her son, Chemistry, has no interest in the amazing transformations she is performing - turning lead to gold, dropping ordinary stones into the cauldron and forming butterflies from the smoke. Magic mushrooms are at her feet, representing the transformations of consciousness we are capable of. Chemistry, a young science, is ignoring her in favor of playing with blocks - (materialism misses a lot!)
Astrology and Mathematics
This is Astrology and Mathematics with their bastard child Astronomy.
Of course, Astrology and Mathematics cannot be understood to interact in an intimate way, since astrology is not "a science". But nevertheless, it is true that astrology was around long before astronomy, and was one way that preceding generations observed and interpreted the night sky. Even today we can utilize the archetypes of astrology to better understand ourselves and others… You might not "believe" in it, but our ancestors used it, and we might find more truth in it than "science" has yet to admit.
