Sleeping with the snake


Ever since yesterday I have wanted to draw this picture of me sleeping with the snake.  Although it wasn’t exactly how it happened as the snake was beside the bed, not on the bed with me.


I saw the snake in the shape of a figure of eight – or infinity – and eating its own tail. This is called the Ouroboros which can signify the eternal dance of the cosmos, and according to Jung, infinity and wholeness.
