ouroboros #FNAF #spawnday

(symbolism infodump in the article :3)

i got a chalkboard in my room a while ago and drew this (3rd image) and decided it's worthy of digital redraw


i thought the "circle of life" symbolism would be quite fitting with the context of FNaF. then i accidentally discovered some more symbolism which nicely relates to William Afton

this is a lot of words, but bear with me, because i think this is pretty cool :]

.

1. ouroboros - a serpent eating its own tail: symbolizing the circle of life, death and rebirth.

according to wikipedia, it is also a symbol used in:

> alchemy

> gnosticism - (from what i understood!) this belief, among other things, focuses on how restrictive being trapped in the human body and the material world is, how all physical matter eventually gives in to decay and death. the goal is to free yourself from fate.

[> hermeticism - too much explaining.....leaving this for the zero people who are curious about this lol]

.

2. colors!!!

green:

> has a calming effect

> rebirth, renewal and immortality

> various monsters and the inhuman

> jealousy and envy; "it is the green-eyed monster which doth mock the meat it feeds on." - the expression "green eyed monster" being used for the first time by William Shakespeare in Othello

yellow:

to quote wikipedia: "Yellow is the color of ambivalence and contradiction; the color associated with optimism and amusement; but also with betrayal, duplicity, and jealousy."

.

thank you for reading, it means a lot <3
