Whirlwind

The circulating opus is referred to, in an early alchemical source, as “the mystery of the whirlwind.” Characteristic of the whirlwind, of course, is that its energy revolves in a continuous loop, linking the symbol to circle, wheel, and spiral motifs. It is a “typical initiation motif” that in dreams may suggest significant transformations.  

The powerful tornado is sometimes an expression of the Self, which cannot be obstructed.
