This is a logo of a spiritual environmental network called Animaus. The name and the design is inspired by the jungian idea of anima and animus, that we all have an inner self, a shadow that is the opposite gender than our physical. Today homogenous gender definitions might seem obsolete, hence the integration of the two in animaus, to symbolize the idea that we are all both female and male in spirit. It is also inspired by the symbol of animism and the yin-yang symbol (Taijitu). Animism is the belief that all things are spirited. That nature and all the elements in nature a spirit or soul, which also related to the jungian bush spirit of the ‘primitive’ tribes. That individuals are connected to individual elements in nature, a belief also seen in shamanism. In the colors and simplicity it also inspired by animé. Animaus is so far a fictive network, but who know, it might become reality. The triangle, or treetop, can be viewed as a new variant of the holy trinity as spirit/matter/union. Of course the Illuminati reference in inevitable, the eye in the pyramid, but it has two eyes, and can also be pig snout. 😉
