Description I drew this at a meeting to pass the time, and decided to re-draw it on Paint, so that it looks better. The original was on notebook paper with blue pen, and sketchy.

I love the way this has as much of a quasi-science feel to it as it does majickal. As well as sephira and sigils I see molecular diagrams, electrical schematics and tensor fields!

It looks kind of similar to the drawings of Sephiroth trees I found once... I think I was studying the symbolism behind Tarot cards... Or was it Tales of the Abyss...
Anyways, I think it's fantastic how you combined familiar symbolism in a creative and beautiful way!

It has the interconnected-nodes look of the Tree of Life, a little of it anyway. I once read somewhere, the Tree of Life characterized as a cosmic flowchart, which, for certain purposes, doesn't seem like a bad way to look at it. xD I think I combined some of the stylistic elements anyway, the symbolism is more random. ^^

Ahh yes, one of the 7 sephiroth trees.... I want to say it's from kabalism but I remember I was looking it up now for the sake of Tales of the Abyss and can't actually remember the name of the religion.... This is sort of embarrasing.
Anyways, I'm still very impressed >.> I try to add these sorts of designs to clothing on my charactes and just never seem to get as far or as detailed. I have to admit, it makes me really jealous.

Ah, good to know someone else has knowledge of hermetics.
... though I don't think lightning elementals exist. lol

Nope, not that I know of, though it'd be really fun. Thanks.

Awesome picture! A summoning circle, eh? You're just a bundle of paranormal things, huh? Goddesses, Summoning Circles, Aliens, Mechanical Elves...

It is supposed to summon an electrical elemental. I came up with it a couple of days ago during a thunderstorm. Glad you like it!
