[edit] Summary
| Description | The vesica piscis is a symbol made from two circles of the same radius, intersecting in such a way that the center of each circle lies on the circumference of the other. The name literally means the bladder of the fish in Latin. In the Christian tradition, is is a reference to Christ, as in ichthys. It is called a mandorla ("almond") in italian and known in the early Mesopotamia African and Asian civilizations. |
