The Dervish is placed here in the inner circle and is shown to be surrounded by his chosen circle of souls. He believes he knows them from many lifetimes and has delegated each one of them to ultimately serve the fulfilment of his purpose in this particular life. The varied patterns placed in the Dervish caps represent the various souls. The leaf patterned cap denotes the presence of spiritual teachers in his life, the shattered pane pattern reflects the one who caused him heartache and pain, the horizontal lines for the soul that brings him pure joy, to describe a few…!
Could you recognise your tribe? Do some of them wear multiple caps and influence different moments or situations in your life?
