Separation, Transformation and Return: The Hero's Journey
In The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949), Joseph Campbell explores the universal patterns at the heart of mythological storytelling. But the Hero's Journey it not just a litera...
The Oroboros Knit Scarf draws inspiration from the recurring theme of the crocodile in Carlos Luna’s artwork, representing the patient yet powerful forces of judgment and accountability. When depicted eating its own tail in a circular formation, the symbolism of the Oroboros—representing cycles and Western philosophies—is invoked. Embedded in the stomach of the crocodile is the symbol for Eleggua, the Yoruba deity who observes and reports human actions as we journey through life and death. This design serves as a powerful reminder that spiritual accountability is an immutable force that remains constant throughout our lives, much like a predator waiting patiently amongst the flowers.
Made from natural fibers, including 80% Merino Wool / 20% Mohair, the Oroboros Knit Scarf is soft, breathable, and durable. The luxurious combination of merino wool and mohair ensures warmth without sacrificing comfort, making it ideal for year-round wear. The open-knit design adds texture and dimension, giving this scarf a timeless, versatile appeal.
The Oroboros Knit Scarf offers a lightweight and versatile fit, perfect for layering during the cooler months. Its fully reversible design allows you to switch between two distinct looks, providing added diversity and utility to your wardrobe. Whether worn as a subtle accessory or a bold statement piece, this scarf adds both comfort and style.
