Analemma means Equation of Time, the Path of the Sun, a Figure 8 that is smaller at the top or Seasonal fluctuations. It also relates to the musical clef symbol. This work also describes a disturbance that has caused a wave that is coming back into balance slowly. Feeling there has been something causing a large fluctuation in all the lives on the Earth, as with any cycle, the work calls forth the calming and dissipation of those disruptive waves. I chose to use the mineral rhodonite to frame the oscillations, as it is known to calm and balance emotions and ground out negative energies.
